Objective:To compare low temperature coblation assisted tonsillectomy with conventional dissec-tion tonsillectomy intraoperation and afteroperation. Method:Ninty-two pedia-patients were randomly divided into coblation-assisted tonsillectomy group and the control group. Arthrocare EVac 70 T&.A Wand was used for cobla-tion-assisted tonsillectomy, and the energy set was 7. Conventional dissection tonsillectomy was operated in control group. The operating time,bleeding,tonsillar fossae healing and return to normal diet and activities, intraoperative complications were recorded seperately. Postoperative pain of the pedia-patients was recorded daily using Wong Baker FACES pain scale for 10 days of afteroperation. Result: Coblation assisted group had a shorter operative time than the control group (10. 2min vs. 36. 5min, P<0. 001). The average amount of intraoperative bleeding of Coblation assisted group was(6. 83±3. 36) ml, while the control group was(30. 07±7. 04)ml. Pedia-patients of Coblation group had a better pain score on 1, 2, 3 days after operation than in control group, and there was no statistically significant difference on 4 to 10 days between the two groups. Coblation group ones returned to normal diet earlier than the control group, but both group required similar time returned to normal activities. There was one patient in control group, who required suturing to stop bleeding for active oropharyngeal bleeding on the 6th day after operation. Conclusion: Comparing with traditional dissection, Coblation assisted tonsillectomy is easy to perform with less intraoperative bleeding,shorter operation time,earlier return to normal diet, less pain on 1st to 3th day postoperatively.

Background and objective For highly aggressive small cell lung cancer (SCLC), early diagnosis is im-portant for its prognosis, but the current inspection methods are more limited, with poor specificity of the traditional imaging methods, and the high cost of PET/CT, difcult to popularization and application. SCLC is kind of neuroendocrine tumors, high expression of somatostatin receptors, which is the cornerstone of its early molecular imaging diagnosis. Te aim of this study is to observe the biodistribution and metabolism of 99mTc-octreotide in normal and the human SCLC bearing nude mice. Methods Dynamic and static scintigraphy at 0.5 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h were performed in both normal and tumor bearing nude mice afer intravenous injection of 99mTc-octreotide. Te technique of drawing region of interest (ROI) was used to obtain the aver-aged pixel counts and the activity-time (A-T) curve of brain, heart, lung, liver, kidney, tumor, respectively. Results ① Te biodistribution study in normal nude mice showed highest uptake in kidney and liver, lower in lung and heart, lowest in brain. Most 99mTc-octreotide was excreted via kidney. ② All tumors were displayed clearly at 3 h postinjection of 99mTc-octreotide. Te averaged T/N ratio at 0.5 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h postinjection of 99mTc-octreotide was 1.163±0.03, 2.08±0.12, 3.03±0.23, 2.689±0.31, respectively (F=51.69, P<0.000,1). Te radioactivity of tumor was lower than liver, and similar with the lung. Te curve of tu-mor showed a radioactivity peak at 2 min-3 min postinjection. Conclusion 99mTc-octreotide receptor imaging on nude mice bearing SCLC shares high positive rate, especially at 3 h postinjection.
