Surgical resection remains the cornerstone of therapy for early stage lung cancer. Five-year survival rates are reported as high as 92% for stage Ⅰ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, many patients presenting with resectable early stage disease are unable to tolerate pulmonary resection, even sublobular resection, because of compromised cardiopulmonary functions or other comorbidities. Traditionally,patients deemed medically inoperable have been treated by external-beam radiation. But the results were poor with a mean survival of 20 months and a 5-years survival rate of 12%. In this scenario, we need to develop other non-surgical local therapies. One of these was image-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation(RFA).Many clinical trials show that RFA for lung tumors is a minimally invasive, feasible and safe technique with minor mortality and morbidity. Moreover, its efficacy seems to be promising, even in the long-term follow-up.Further experiences and comparison with other emerging minimally invasive local treatments are required to determine its rote in the treatment of medically inoperable early stage NSCLC.

Objective To summarize the clinical features and biological markers of critically ill children with pancreatic necrosis. Methods The clinical data of 5 ill children whose autopsy confirmed pancreatic necrosis in our hospital from 2003 to 2009 were collected and the pathological results were analyzed.Results Five cases appeared as acute onset and fever. Clinical manifestation of 2 cases included abdominal pain and 2 cases represented abdominal bulging,lots of flatulence and gastrointestinal bleeding. Four cases represented abnormal liver function and significant decrease of albumin,3 cases with increase of C-reactive protein. No case showed abnormal pancreas acoustic image of abdominal B-ultrasonography. Autopsy confirmed that 5 cases represented varying degrees necrosis of the pancreas, which complicated with the damage of adrenal gland,liver,lung,heart, spleen, kidney,intestine, thymus, mediastinal and mesenteric lymphnodes. All died in 36 hours after the children'conditions were changed. Two cases died of acute hemorrhagic necrosis of the pancreas,3 cases died of multiple organ failure based on pancreatic necrosis. Conclusion Pancreatic necrosis in critically ill children presents acute onset and short course,is prone to result in multiple organ damage or failure.

BACKGROUND:Autologous bone marrow aspirate concentrate is often applied in patients from Department of Orthopedics and those with severe limb ischemia, but rarely applied in Department of Oral and Maxil ofacial Surgery, especial y in Department of Oral Implantology. The effect of autologous bone marrow aspirate concentrate on promoting peri-implant bone regeneration deserves further studies.
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of bone marrow aspirate concentrate in the repair of peri-implant bone defect.
METHODS:Bone marrow 5 mL was extracted from posterior superior iliac spine of experimental dogs and bone marrow cel s were counted before and after concentration. Bone defect (4 mm × 4 mm × 4 mm) was prepared in the middle of bilateral mandibular premolar, which was randomly implanted with gelatin sponge plus bone marrow aspirate concentrate, autologous bone and gelatin sponge. At 4 and 12 weeks after surgery, bone defect specimens were histological y observed. The new bone formation rate and new bone mineral density were calculated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After centrifugation, the concentrations of nucleated cel s in bone marrow aspirate concentrate were increased by (2.78±0.22) times. More colony-forming units were found after cel culture. Histological analysis showed that, significantly higher new bone formation rate and new bone mineral density occurred in gelatin sponge plus bone marrow aspirate concentrate group, compared with autologous bone group and gelatin sponge group at 4 weeks (P<0.05). The new bone formation rate in gelatin sponge plus bone marrow aspirate concentrate group was significantly lower than that of autologous bone group, and higher than that of gelatin sponge group at 12 weeks (P<0.05). However, the difference of new bone mineral density in the three groups was not significant (P>0.05). Autologous bone marrow aspirate concentrate can significantly improve new bone mineral density and quantity in the pre-implant bone defect.

Purpose To investigate the clinical pathological features, pathological diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the non-Wilms’ renal tumors in children. Methods The clinical pathological data and immunohistochemical findings of 15 cases of non-Wilms’ renal tumors were retrospectively analyzed with review of the relevant literature. Results In 7/15 (46. 67%) cases of cystic nephroma ( CN) , microscopically the variable size of cysts were lined by a single layer flattened, cuboidal epithelia, separated by fi-broblastic stroma;in 4/15 (26. 67%) cases of rhabdoid tumor of kidney (RTK), histological characteristics were rhabdoid cells and cytoplasmic inclusions;in 2/15 (13. 33%) cases of clear cell sarcoma (CCSK), the classical pattern of histology demonstrated nests, cords of ovoid epithelioid or spindled clear cells separated by fibrovascular septa, which had a marked ’ chicken wire’ pattern of small blood vessels;in 1/15 (6. 67%) case of congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN), the tumor was mainly composed of spindle cells arranged in fascicular pattern, in which fetal renal tissue was seen;in 1/15 (6. 67%) case of granularity renal cell carcinoma, micro-scopically, the cancer cells with eosinophilic granular cytoplasm arranged in nests, cords and tubular pattern. Conclusions Although non-Wilms’ renal tumors is a small part of all kidney tumor, it is difficult to diagnose and distinguish from other tumors before opera-tion. The pathological diagnosis is the most reliable method for differential diagnosis of non-Wilms’ renal tumor.

Objective To evaluate the application of 3.0 T magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in follow-up after embolization of intracranial aneurysms with stent-assisted coils.Methods From June 2013 to June 2015,32 consecutive patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage due to ruptured intracranial aneurysms underwent stent-assisted coil embolization at the Department of Neurosurgery,the Sixth People′s Hospital of Shenzhen were enrolled retrospectively,including 12 males and 20 female,their mean age was 56±10 years.All patients were confirmed to be solitary intracranial aneurysms by digital subtraction angiography (DSA) before embolization.They were followed up with 3.0 T time of flight MRA (TOF-MRA) and contrast enhanced MRA (CE-MRA) at 1 to 2 years after embolization.DSA findings were served as the golden standard.The effect of aneurysm embolization (stabilization,further embolization,recanalization/recurrence) and patency of the parent arteries (without stenosis/mild stenosis,moderate to severe stenosis and occlusion) were compared.Results (1) The comparisons of evaluating the aneurysmal effects and consistencies of DSA among TOF-MRA,CE-MRA and TOF-MRA+source images after stent-assisted coil embolization were poor (Kappa=0.039,P=0.002),medium (Kappa=0.582,P<0.01),and higher (Kappa=0.615,P<0.01),respectively.(2) The comparison of the consistencies in the patency of the parent artery after stent-assisted coil embolization between TOF-MRA,CE-MRA and DSA were poor (Kappa=0.171,P=0.211;Kappa=0.376,P=0.010).(3) With the DSA findings as reference,the accuracy rates of TOF-MRA,TOF-MRA+source images and CE-MRA for interpretation of aneurysm embolization were 37.5% (12/32),75.0% (24/32),and 71.9% (23/32),respectively.TOF-MRA compared with TOF-MRA+source images and CE-MRA respectively,there were significant differences in the accuracy rates (χ2=9.04,P=0.003;χ2=7.63,P=0.006);there were no significant differences in the accuracy rates between TOF-MRA+source images and CE-MRA (χ2=0.08,P=0.777).(4) With the DSA findings as reference,the accuracy rates of TOF-MRA and CE-MRA for interpretation of the patency of the parent artery were 37.5% (12/32) and 62.5% (20/32) respectively.There was no significant difference in the accuracy rate (χ2=4.67,P=0.097).Conclusions The accuracy rate of 3.0 T CE-MRA for evaluating the embolization effect of intracranial aneurysms after stent-assisted coil embolization was superior to that of TOF-MRA.It can be used as a preferred non-invasive examination during the follow-up.TOF-MRA+source images are equivalent to CE-MRA,however,TOF-MRA and CE-MRA for the evaluation of the accuracy of patency of the parent arteries are low.For positive or indeterminate results of MRA examinations,the individualized analysis should be performed,if necessary,perform DSA examination.
