1.Efficacy of reserving thyroid partial laryngectomy for glottic laryngeal carcinoma
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2014;37(33):1-4
Objective To compare and evaluate the oncological and functional outcomes between reserving thyroid partial laryngectomy and traditional partial laryngectomy for the treatment of stage T2-3glottic laryngeal carcinoma.Methods One hundred and twenty-eight patients treated from January 1999 to January 2009 were selected from all glottic laryngeal carcinoma patients with stage T2-3,who underwent surgery combined with radiation therapy.A retrospective review was randomized and matched by tumour subsite,TNM stage and age,which were confirmed by pathology and observation without thyroid perichondrium invaded or only local invasion of thyroid cartilage,there was no need to extensively resect laryngeal cartilages.Patients were divided into reserving thyroid partial laryngectomy group(study group) and traditional partial laryngectomy group (control group).Each group included 64 cases,which included T2N0 38 cases,T2N1 6 cases,T2N2 1 case,T3N0 17 cases,T3N1 2 cases.Local control rate,decannulation rate,the 3-year and 5-year accumulative survival rate were compared between two groups.Results The 3-year and 5-year accumulative survival rate were 89.8% and 84.3% in study group,91.5% and 85.4% in control group,there was no sognificant difference (x2 =1.687,P > 0.05).The local control rate was 91.7 % (55/60) in study group and 93.2 %(55/59) in control group,there was no significant difference (x2 =0.103,P >0.05).The decannulation rate was 98.3% (59/60) in study group and 89.8%(53/59) in control group,there was significant difference (x2 =4.933,P <0.05).Conclusions Comparing with traditional partial laryngectomy,reserving thyroid partial laryngectomy is successful for treating properly selected stage T2-3 glottic laryngeal carcinoma.This operation has higher decannulation rate and lower complication,which is effective for reducing surgical invasion and facilitated the resumption of respiratory.

BACKGROUND:Chondromodulin-Ⅰ is expressed mainly in the cartilage, but it is little expressed in mesenchymal stem cells. Combined with the previous study of our group, we concluded that chondromodulin-Ⅰmaybe play an important role in inducing mesenchymal stem cells into chondrocytes accurately.
OBJECTIVE:To construct an expression plasmid stably carrying chondromodulin-Ⅰ to up-regulate the expression of chondromodulin-Ⅰ in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
METHODS:Specific primers were designed in rat cartilage for chondromodulin-Ⅰ gene, then the pcDNA3.1 (+) plasmid expression vector was digested by enzyme and directional connected gene to construct pcDNA3.1(+)/ChM-Ⅰ expression vector. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were obtained from rats using the method of density gradient centrifugation combined with adherent culture. Recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1(+)/ChM-Ⅰ was transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells with liposome method, and G418 selection was used for stable screen of transfected cells. Reverse transcription-PCR and western blot were used to detect chondromodulin-Ⅰ expression in celllines.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The positive clones were digested by enzyme and were identified and sequenced. The results showed that the reality length and sequence of chondromodulin-Ⅰ gene were consistent with the theoretical values, and reading frame was correct. Reverse transcription-PCR and western blot results showed that the expressions of chondromodulin-ⅠmRNA and protein were markedly up-regulated in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Recombinant plasmid pcDNA3.1(+)/ChM-I was successful y constructed, and transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. After G418 selection, expression of chondromodulin-Ⅰ was up-regulated stably in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
3.A clinical evaluation on correction of the deviated nose and functional reconstructive nasal surgery.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2010;24(17):788-791
OBJECTIVE:
To explore an effective method of correction of deviated nose and functional reconstructive nasal surgery.
METHOD:
Among 102 patients 32 cases were treated by septoplasty only, 53 cases were corrected by bony pyramid, 3 cases with severe asymmetry of bony pyramid by wedge resection and 14 cases by the implant of the septal or rip cartilage.
RESULT:
The successful rate was 92.20% (92/102) with period of 6 to 24 months follow up.
CONCLUSION
Correcting the deviated nose to reconstruct its function with the intranasal approach and multiple techniques, can benefit both the cosmetology and nasal functional improvement. Rectifying the nasal septum, debonding the tissue of the deviated section completely, and fixing reconstructive structures are the keys for the successful result.
