Background and purpose: In recent years, more and more clinical researches on the neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast were carried out at home and abroad. Although there are quite a lot of the retrieved documents of NEBC at home and abroad, but large-scale reports are rare, besides, the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis were different;more research are needed to analyze NEBC. This paper mainly discussed the NEBC clinical diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out, 25 cases of Tumor Hospital Afifliated to Xinjiang Medical University from Jan. 2004 to Jun. 2013 were pathologically diagnosed as NEBC by clinical data and the follow-up. Results:The average age of 25 NEBC patients was 58.2 years old, without clinical and imaging characteristic features, immunohistochemistry staining showed that, the estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) positive rates were 76%and 64%. No one showed HER-2 strong positive. The follow-up was 9-115 months. Besides, 1-, 2-and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 100%, 95%and 88%, the disease-free survival (DFS) rates were 96%, 90%and 78%. Conclusion:The age of the patients with NEBC in this study was lower than the data abroad. Age, tumor size, pathological staging may be related to the prognosis of NEBC, and postoperative comprehensive treatment options need further study.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided microwave ablation(MWA) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in the treatment of benign thyroid nodules.Methods:The clinical data of 119 patients (187 nodules in total) with benign thyroid nodules who were treated with ultrasond-guided MWA (56 cases) and RFA (63 cases) in Shenzhen Third People′s Hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The ablation time, ablation time per unit volume, volume reduction rate of thyroid nodules after treatment, changes in thyroid function before and after treatment, and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results:The ablation time and ablation time per unit volume in the MWA group were significantly shorter than those in the RFA group (all P<0.05). At 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment, the reduction rate of nodule volume in MWA group was higher than that in RFA group, and the difference was statistically significant in the subgroup with nodule >10 ml (all P<0.05). The incidence of temporary hoarseness in RFA group [6.35%(4/63)]was lower than that in MWA group [12.5%(7/56)], with no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Microwave ablation is more effective than radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of large thyroid nodules. Radiofrequency ablation is safer than microwave ablation for thyroid nodules near the risk triangle, but further research is needed to confirm.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect and demonstrate the techniques of single position laparoscopic nephroureterectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 84 upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma patients admitted to the Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from September 2018 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 39 males and 45 females, with a median age of (64.9±9.3)years and mean BMI of(24.7±3.4)kg/m 2. The tumor was located on the left side in 47 cases and the right side in 37 cases. All 84 patients received single position laparoscopic nephroureterectomy. According to different treatment methods, they were divided into two groups, including 67 cases undergoing nephrectomy first, and then bladder cuff excision was performed along ureter(traditional group), 17 cases undergoing bladder cuff excision before clamping the ureter below the tumor, and then nephrectomy was performed along the ureter to the head side (modified group). There was no statistically significant in the comparison of age [(65.5±9.4)years vs.(62.7±8.9)years], BMI[(24.9±3.5)kg/m 2vs.(23.9±3.3)kg/m 2], left/right side tumor of(38/29 cases vs. 9/8 cases), tumor location (in renal pelvis or calyx or upper/middle/lower ureter being 46/9/12 cases vs. 13/2/2 cases)and tumor stage(T 1-2/T 3-4: 54/13 cases vs. 15/2 cases) between traditional group and modified group ( P>0.05). The operation time, estimate blood loss, postoperative intestinal function recovery time and postoperative drainage time were recorded and compared. Results:All 84 cases were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery. The mean operation time was (160.4±50.1)min, the mean estimated blood loss was(59.4±24.4)ml, the median postoperative intestinal function recovery time was 1(1, 2)d and the mean postoperative drainage time was (4.8±1.9)d(No drainage tube was placed in 4 patients). No Clavien Dindo >grade 3 complications occured. There was no significant difference in the comparison of operation time [(159.2±52.9)min vs. (164.7±38.1)min], estimate blood loss [(60.5±26.2)ml vs. (55.0±17.5)ml], postoperative intestinal function recovery time [1(1-2)d vs. 2(1-2)d] and drainage removal time [(4.8±1.8)d vs. (5.2±2.0)d] between traditional group and modified group ( P>0.05). The postoperative pathology of 84 cases was urothelial carcinoma, and the pathological results of the resection margin were negative. The median follow-up of 84 upper tract urothelial carcinoma patients was 13(3, 28)months. Five patients were lost to follow-up. In traditional group, 5 patients had bladder tumor recurrence, and 5 patients had distant metastasis. In modified group, no bladder tumor recurrence occurred and 1 patient had distant metastasis. Conclusions:Laparoscopic nephroureterectomy in single position is a safe and effective minimally invasive technique for the treatment of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma. Treatment of the bladder cuff excision firstly is more in line with the principle of tumor-free and increase surgical space.

Objective:To explore the effect of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical cystectomy (LRC) and intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD).Methods:A total of 83 patients who received LRC+ ICUD in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from March 2014 to September 2020, were divided into 2 groups based on different perioperative management, including 29 ERAS cases and 54 conventional recovery after surgery (CRAS) cases. The ERAS group included 26 males and 3 females , with an average age of (62.07 ± 9.26) years. There were 26 patients with ASA class Ⅰ-Ⅱ, 3 patients with ASA class Ⅲ, 4 patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and 7 patients had a history of abdominal surgery in ERAS group. The CRAS group included 44 males and 10 females , with an average age of (61.59 ± 10.16) years. There were 50 patients with ASA class Ⅰ-Ⅱ, 4 patients with ASA class Ⅲ, 9 patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and 10 patients had a history of abdominal surgery in CRAS group. There were no statistically significant differences in the baseline characteristics between the two groups. The patients in both groups underwent LRC+ ICUD procedures. The perioperative results and complications between the two groups were compared.Results:In the ERAS group, there were 20 patients who underwent Bricker ileal conduit surgery and 9 patients who underwent Studer orthotopic ileal neobladder surgery. Pathological staging included 3, 3, 7, 7, 5 and 4 cases in stage T a, T is, T 1, T 2, T 3 and T 4a, respectively. There were 23, 2, 3 and 1 patient with pathological stage N 0, N 1, N 2 and N 3, respectively. Pathological diagnosis included 3 cases of low-grade urothelial carcinoma, 24 cases of high-grade urothelial carcinoma, and 2 cases of other histological subtypes. In the CRAS group, there were 31 patients who underwent Bricker ileal conduit surgery and 23 patients who underwent Studer orthotopic ileal neobladder surgery. Pathological staging included 5, 3, 12, 9, 15 and 10 patients in stage T a, T is, T 1, T 2, T 3 and T 4a, respectively. There were 35, 6, 7 and 6 patients with pathological stage N 0, N 1, N 2, and N 3, respectively. Pathological diagnoses included 6 cases of low-grade urothelial carcinoma, 45 cases of high-grade urothelial carcinoma, and 3 cases of other histological subtypes. There were no statistically significant differences ( P>0.05) in surgical methods, pathological staging, or pathological types between the ERAS and CRAS groups. ERAS group presented less albumin loss [(25.73±8.63)% vs. (32.63±9.05)%, P=0.001], shorter hospital stay [9(7, 13)d vs. 12(9, 16)d, P=0.006], less 30-day overall complications [55.2% (16/29) vs. 83.3% (45/54), P=0.009]. In multivariable analysis, maximum albumin loss≥20% was independently associated with 30-day minor complications ( P=0.049), and maximum albumin loss ≥25% was independently associated with hospital of stay≥10 days ( P=0.038), respectively. Conclusions:For patients who received LRC+ ICUD, ERAS was associated with reduced perioperative albumin loss, shorter length of stay, less 30-day complications, accelerated recovery time, improved clinical outcome and less albumin injection.

【Objective】 To investigate the effects of diabetes and/or obesity on the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and long-term renal function recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. 【Methods】 A retrospective analysis was performed on 221 patients who underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital during Jan.2018 and Dec.2019. Baseline data, incidence of AKI, and renal function recovery after 12 months were analyzed in the diabetic, non-diabetic, diabetic + obese and diabetic + non-obese groups, with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) reaching 90% of the preoperative level as the standard. Risk factors of AKI were analyzed with univariate and multivariate regression analyses. 【Results】 Compared with the non-diabetic group, the diabetic group had lower preoperative eGFR [ (79.1±12.1)mL/ (min·1.73 m2 )vs. (85.3±10.7)mL/ (min·1.73 m2 ), P=0.01] , higher incidence of AKI (14.0% vs. 11.8%), and lower proportion of patients whose renal function recovered to at least 90% of the preoperative level (73.1% vs.83.5%). Patients with diabetes and obesity were more likely to develop AKI (31.3% vs.3.7%, P=0.039), and diabetic patients without obesity had better renal function recovery (81.3% vs. 60.0%). Multivariate analysis showed gender and operation time were the independent risk factors of AKI. 【Conclusion】 There were no significant differences between diabetic and non-diabetic patients in the incidence of postoperative AKI, or rate of renal function recovery 12 months after surgery. The incidence of AKI significantly increased in diabetic patients with obesity, and the renal function recovery rate decreased one year after surgery. Gender and operation time were the independent risk factors of AKI.
