Objective To investigate the efficacy of imatinib combining with allogeneic hematopioetic stem cell transplantation or chemotherapy for bcr-abl positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methods 12 cases were diagnosed on morphology, cytochemistry, immunophenotype and bcr-abl fusion gene. The induction is imatinib (400 mg/d) combining chemotherapy. 8 cases accepted allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation after complete remission (CR). If bcr-abl became positive, the patient was treated with imatinib (400~600 mg/d). 3 cases were tested with imatinib alternating chemotherapy after cr. Results 11 patients gained CR, CR rate 91.7 %; 5 patients (41.7 %) became bcr-abl negative through 2 courses induction. 3 cases relapsed after transplantation. 2 cases relapsed in imatinib combining chemotherapy group. The median remission interval is 16 months (imatinib combining transplantation group) and 10 months (imatinib combining chemotherapy group) (P <0.01) respectively. The median survival time is 18 months (imatinib combining transplantation group), and the other group (imatinib combining chemotherapy) is 12 months (P <0.01). Conclusion Imatinib combining chemotherapy achieved high CR rate for the bcr-abl positive ALL. Imatinib combining allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is superior to imatinib combining chemotherapy for CR patients.

Objective To investigate the possibility and surgical effect of simultaneous tympanoplasty to chronic suppurative otitis media in the period of infection. Methods Forty-eight cases (48 ears) with chronic suppurative otitis media in the period of infection (31 with cholesteatoma, 17 with caries) were underwent simultaneous Wullstein Ⅱ and Ⅲ tympanoplasty on the complete elimination of the lesions (typical or modified mastoidectomy). Results All eases had dry ears within 4-10 weeks with average of 7 weeks. The air-bone gap within 10 dB was in 11 eases, 15 to 20 dB in 25 cases, 25 to 30 dB in 9 eases, no change or worse in 3 eases. Conclusions Infection is not the absolute eontraindication to the tympanoplasty in treating chronic suppurative otitis media, Wullstein Ⅲ tympanoplasty plus mastoid cavity obliteration and eonchaplasty is a suitable choice to treating chronic suppurative otitis media on the complete elimination of lesions and reconstruction of the ventilation system among mastoid cavity, tympanum and eustachian. The malfunction of eustachian is the main eanse to failure of surgery.

Objective To explore the high-risk factors,clinical characteristics,therapy and prognosis of invasive fungal infection (IFI)in patients underwent allogeneic haemopoietic stem cell transplantation (AlloHSCT). Methods One hundred patients underwent Allo-HSCT at our department from March 2002 to July 2010 were analyzed retrospectively,among whom 26 patients had invasive fungal infection(IFI). Seven patients had pulmonary IFI before allo-HSCT, 14 patients had pulmonary IFI after allo-HSCT,3 patients had respiratory tract system IFI, and 2 patients had intestinal IFI. We observed the occurrence of Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) ,cytomegalovirus( CMV )infection, Lymphocyte subsets and chronic basic diseases in patients with IFI. The twenty six cases were divided into two groups: experience therapy group with 12 cases and preemption therapy group with 14 cases. Results Among 26 patients with IFI,20 cases suffered from GVHD,6 cases had CMV infection,19 cases had low cellular immune function simultaneously. 1 case had diabetes,3 patients had pulmonary tuberculosis and 1 case had bronchiectasis as complications. In experience therapy groupe: 8 cases (67%)recovered completely but 1 case(8% )suffered from progressive infection. In preemption therapy groupe:3 cases ( 21% ) recovered completely but 5 cases ( 36% ) suffered from progressive infection. Conclusion Clinician should pay close attention to the patients with high-risk factors of IFI after allo-HSCT.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantat (allo-HSCT) for severe aplastic anemia (SAA). Methods Four patients of SAA underwent allo-HSCT at the bonemarrow transplant unit in our hospital from March 2003 to May 2009. Stem cell source was an HLA (human leukocyte antigen) matched related donor (MRD) in 3, HLA 1 (B) mismatched related donor in 1 patient A retrospective analysis was performed on interval from diagnosis to transplant,HSCT manners,conditioning regimens, hematopoiesis reconstitution, effectiveness and complication. Results The interval from diagnosis to transplant was 70 (19 - 180) days. Three patients (MRD) underwent BM + PBSCT, one was undergone BM + PBSC + CBSCT. Conditioning regimens of all patients were CY/ATG. Hematopoiesis reconstitution was achieved in 4 patients (100%). The median time of neutrophils which reached 0. 5 x 109/L and platelets reached 20 × 109/L were 14. 5 (9-28) and 16(9 -28) days. Two cases developed grade Ⅰ acute graft-versus-host diseaes (aGVHD), chronic local GVHD occurred in one patient. Four patients are alive with a median time of 40. 6(2 -63) months at the end of the following-up. Conclusions Allo-HSCT are an efficient and safe therapy for the patient with SAA,not only for patients with HLA matched related donor,but also for those only HLA mismatched related donor available.
