During the period from 1989 to 1999 at Cho Ray hospital we have a series of 27 patients with unilateral paranasal sinus malignancies who were underwent the maxillectomy. The ipsilateral temporal muscle was used for one-stage primary reconstruction of the hard palate or orbital floor or both after the ablation of the tumor. Results: in this series, there are 8 T3 tumors and 19 T4 tumors. 22 temporal muscle flaps have been used for reconstruction of the hard palate and orbital floor have been reconstructed simultaneously. All flaps were good. We have neither flap related complication nor partial or total flap loss. The new hard palate flaps separated well the oral cavity and the nasal fossa and could maintain the eye ball in a good position. The patients could eat and drink by mouth just after the surgery. The flaps resist well to the following radiation therapy. No flap demonstrated any degree of radionecrosis.

Inflammatory myofibroblastoma (IMT) is a rare solid tumor, and its etiology and pathogenesis are unclear. Crohn's disease is a non-specific intestinal inflammatory disease. The clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, and imaging examinations of IMT are not specific, making diagnosis difficult. A case of Crohn's disease combined with IMT of abdominal wall was admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology at the Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, on Nov. 21, 2017. This patient was admitted to our hospital because of repeated right lower abdominal pain for 4 years. A 6 cm×5 cm mass was palpated in the right lower abdomen. After completing the transanal double-balloon enteroscopy and computed tomographic enterography for the small intestinal, the cause was still unidentified. The patient underwent surgery due to an abdominal wall mass with intestinal fistula on Sept. 12, 2018 and recovered well currently. According to histopathology and immunohistochemistry, he was diagnosed with Crohn's disease combined with IMT. Up to July 2020, the patients still took azathioprine regularly, without abdominal pain, abdominal distension, and other discomfort, and the quality of his life was good.

The authors report a typical case of tenosynovial giant cell tumor of the right middle finger of a 31-year-old man. Histologically, this tumor is characterized by a discrete proliferation of rounded synovial-like cells accompanied by a variable number of multinucleated giant cells, inflammatory cells, and xanthoma cells. Clinicopathologically, this tumor is a benign lesion that nonetheless possesses a capacity for local recurrence. Local excision with a small cuff of normal tissue is the treatment of choice in this tumor.

OBJECTIVETo explore the causes, clinic diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the chest.

METHODSThe clinical data of 12 patients with IMT were retrospectively analyzed including 9 male and 3 female patients aged 36 to 81 years (mean 60.08 years). Five patients underwent pulmonary lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection, 1 had partial lobectomy, 1 had mediastinal tumor resection and costectomy, and 2 received conservative treatment.

RESULTSAll the surgical patients recovered after surgery without lymph node metastasis detected by pathological examinations. In the follow-up lasting for 2 months to 5 years, no recurrence or metastasis occurred in these cases. In the 2 cases having conservative treatment, the tumor remained unchanged in one case at 3 month of follow-up and disappeared in the other case.

CONCLUSIONIMT in the chest is a rare benign tumor with a low incidence rate and malignancy. Pathological examination is reliable for definite diagnosis. Surgical operation is the primary therapeutic approach. All IMT patients should be closely followed up after the treatment.
