OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical manifestation,diagnosis and treatment of Castleman disease(CD)in the neck. METHODS The data of 2 patients with pathological proved CD in the neck,who were seen in our hospital,were reviewed retrospectively in order to analyze their clinical manifestations,clinical and histological types, imaging characteristics and treatment. RESULTS The age of onset were 24 and 29 years respectively. Both of them only presented as a solitary,painless neck mass and met the criteria of localized CD, and also had histological evidence of the hyaline vascular variant. Complete surgical resection was the first treatment.Both of them were alive without evidence of recurrence for one year and half a year respectively. CONCLUSION CD in the neck often presents as localized lesion,which often presents as a progressive, painless, slowly growing lymph node enlargement that is generally asymptomatic. The locations most commonly are the cervical lymph nodes. CD in the neck is almost always the hyaline-vascular variant and complete surgical excision of the tumor is the best treatment.

OBJECTIVE To explore the possibility of no recurrent laryngeal nerve injury in thyroid surgery. METHODS A total of 659 consecutive patients with thyroid disease undergoing thyroidectomy byotolaryngologists from March 2001 to March 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. The operative mode and incidence of complications, particularly postoperative RLN palsy, hypoparathyroidism and postoperative recurrence were evaluated. Routine dissection and identification of the RLN was performed during all operative procedures and parathyroid with the blood supply was preserved. RESULTS Unilateral total thyroidectomy with contralateral partial lobectomy was performed in 376 cases, unilateral total thyroidectomy with isthmectomy in 87, bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy with the remnant left at the upper pole in 76, total thyroidectomy in 73. The operations on 47 patients with substernal goiter have been successfully performed via cervical collar incision. None of our patients incurred unilateral or bilateral vocal cord paralysis and permanent hypocalcaemia. Of these patients, the incidence of temporary postoperative hypocalcemia was 1.67 %(11/659). Postoperative hemorrhage requiring reoperation occurred in 4 cases (0.60 %) and 5 patients developed wound haematomas (0.76 %).Postoperative hypothyroidism was found in 3 patients(0.45 %).The incidence of postoperative recurrence was 0.15 %(1/659). No patients had incision infection. CONCLUSION With knowledge of the anatomy of the RLN and routinely complete identification the RLN in performing capsular dissection high on the surface of the thyroid gland, RLN injury may be avoided in thyroid surgery.

Objective To investigate the effect of a single dose of propofol at the end of surgery on pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium undergoing adenotonsillectomy during sevoflurane anesthesia.Methods Sixty pediatric patients for adenotonsillectomy were randomly divided into propofol group and control group (30 cases in each group), they were undergoing sevoflurane induction and maintaince. The pediatric patients in propofol group were received 1 mg/kg 10% of the propofol intravenous injection at the end of surgery,while the pediatric patients in control group were received the same volume physiological sailine intravenous injection. Duration of surgery, sevoflurane administration, anesthesia time, extubation time were recorded. The highest PAED score after extubation in 30 min were recorded. The time spent in PACU and the FLACC pain score were recorded. Results The PAED score in propofol group was significantly lower than that in control group [(7.5 ± 3.9) scores vs (10.9 ±4.5) scores, P＜0.05]. The incidence rate of postoperative delirium in propofol group was significantly lower than that in control group [20.0% (6/30) vs 46.7% (14/30), P ＜ 0.05 ] . Duration of extubation in propofol group was slightly longer than that in control group[(10.2 ± 1.1 ) min vs (9.1 ± 1 .5 ) min, P ＜ 0.05].There was no statistical significant difference in duration of anesthesia, the time spent in PACU and the FLACC pain score (P ＞0.05).Conclusions The administration a single dose of 1 mg/kg propofol at the end of surgery can effectively reduce pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium undergoing adenotonsillectomy during sevoflurane anesthesia, while can't extend the duration of anesthesia and the time spent in PACU. It has some clinical value.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical significance of dissection parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with renal disease on maintenance dialysis. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 195 patients with SHPT treated in the Department of Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery of Beijing Civil Aviation General Hospital between September 2009 and September 2017, including 92 males and 103 females, aged from 23 to 77 years old. There were 167 patients by operated firstly and 28 patients by operated secondly for persistent or recurrent SHPT after operation. All patients received dissection parathyroidectomy with parathyroid autograft in the sternocleidomastoid. The easement of symptoms, the levels of serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), serum-ionized calcium, phosphorus, and hemoglobin were compared before and after operation. Data were analyzed by SPSS 22.0 software. Results: Confirmed by postoperative pathology, a total of 804 hyperplastic parathyroid glands were removed in 195 patients with SHPT. Among them, 765 parathyroid glands were clearly identified and located with naked eye. The anatomic distribution of the glands showed 577 (75.4%) in the tracheoesophageal groove. The incidence of ectopic parathyroid glands was 24.6% (188/765). Other 39 (4.9%) hyperplastic parathyroid glands from 22(11.3%) patients, which were not identified and located with naked eye during operation, were pathologically detected in the dissected tissue specimens. Among 195 patients, 28(14.4%) showed supernumerary parathyroid glands. No serious complications occurred after operation. Within 6 months after the operation, the bone pain and skin itch symptoms were completely relieved and, also, the symptoms of muscle weakness, restless leg, anemia and poor sleep quality were significantly alleviated. Following-up at 6 months after surgery showed the serum levels of iPTH [(70.31±60.12) pg/ml], calium [(2.13±0.22) mmol/L], and phosphorus [(1.17±0.27) mmol/L] decreased significantly respectively compared with the preoperative serum levels of iPTH [(1 501.02±167.26) pg/ml], calium [(2.40±0.32) mmol/L], and phosphorus[(2.27±0.50)mmol/L], all with statistically significant differences (P<0.01); the levels of hemoglobin [(120.32±10.63) g/L] and hematocrit [(39.20±3.21)%] were higher than the preoperative levels of hemoglobin[(104.11±15.17) g/L] and hematocrit [(31.25±5.12)%], both with statistically significant differences (t valve was 12.22,18,37,respectively, all P<0.05). Conclusions Dissection parathyroidectomy is a beneficial and safe surgical procedure for patients with medically refractory SHPT.

Objective To investigate the depression of patients with Meniere disease after surgery ,and the relationships to vertigo and the improvement of the quality of life .Methods A total of 46 patients with Meniere dis-ease and 95 patients with other diseases of otorhinolaryngology (as control) were enrolled in this retrospective stud-y .They underwent operations between 2013 and 2015 .They finished self -rating depression scales ,Meniere dis-ease outcomes questionaire by snail mail .They were asked about the frequencies of vertigo before and after surgery . The gender ,age and postoperative course in the control group were matched to those of in the Meniere group .The relationships among vertigo ,the improvement of the quality of life and postoperative depression were compared .Re-sults In the Meniere group ,69 .77％ of patients did not have depression ,while 13 .95％ were with mild depres-sion ,16 .28％ with moderate ,none with severe .Depression was more severe in the Meniere group than in the con-trol group .There were no obvious linear relationships between vertigo and depression or between quality of life and depression .There was no statistical difference in depression of patients with different vertigo frequencies .Conclusion There is still a certain degree of postoperative depression in near 30％ of patients with Meniere disease after sur-gery .This may not be related to vertigo nor the quality of life .

OBJECTIVE To make a research on the diagnostic value of Magnetic resonance image for preoperative localization of the parathyroid glands in secondary hyperparathyroidism patients.METHODS This retrospective study was on 51 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism who underwent parathyroid gland resection and autoplastic transplantation and were examined with Magnetic resonance imaging 99mTC-MIBI nuclide imaging and Color doppler ultrasound in our hospital from 2010 to 2016.Compare to the gold standard of pathological diagnosis after operation,the sensitivity of various imaging examination on identifying the parathyroid glands were calculated.RESULTS The number of parathyroid glands diagnosed by pathology was 197,including 180 conventional parathyroid glands and 17 eetopic parathyroid glands.The sensitivity of MRI,99mTC-MIBI nuclide imaging and Color doppler ultrasound on identifying the conventional parathyroid glands was 76.67％,51.11％ and 44.44％ respectively,and the sensitivity on identifying the ectopic parathyroid was 29.41％,0 and 0 respectively.Sensitivity of the Magnetic resonance on identifying the conventional parathyroid and the ectopic parathyroid imagin were better than 99mTC-MIBI nuclide imaging and color doppler(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION Magnetic resonance imaging is an effective auxiliary examination on preoperative localization of the parathyroid glands in secondary hyperparathyroidism patients and can be the first choice of the image examination.

OBJECTIVE To compare the metabolomic characteristics of stage T1 papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC)and nodular goiter(NG),and the relationship between metabolites and lymph node metastasis of PTC.METHODS Serum samples were collected from 60 patients with stage T1 PTC and 30 patients with NG who underwent thyroidectomy at the Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery,Civil Aviation General Hospital between September 2021 and April 2022.The PTC group was divided into the N+ group with lymph node metastasis and the N-group without lymph node metastasis according to the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis.The serum metabolites of the N+ and N-groups and the PTC and NG groups were compared and analyzed using an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Exactive-MS)coupled platform,and principal component analysis(PCA),partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA),and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA)was performed using SIMCA-P 14.1 software.OPLS-DA modeling,combined with FDR-corrected Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test results and metabolite difference multiples in the two groups undergoing comparison,etc.to screen for potential small molecule metabolic markers,and to establish a joint diagnostic model by binary logistic regression analysis.RESULTS There were no significant differential metabolites between the N+ group with lymph node metastasis and the N-group without lymph node metastasis.Seven differential metabolites were found between PCA patients and NG patients,and the five relevant metabolic pathways were the pentose phosphate pathway,pentose and glucuronide interconversion,glycolysis/gluconeogenesis,fructose,and mannose metabolism,and fatty acid biosynthesis.The differential metabolite with an area under the ROC curve>0.9 was D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate,and another N-undecanoylglycine,uronic acid,and the area under the ROC curve for three metabolites,N-undecanoylglycine,uric acid,and triiodothyronine glucuronide,was>0.8.CONCLUSION PTC patients differed from NG patients mainly in glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism,and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate could be distinguished from NG patients with the aid of N-undecanoylglycine,uric acid,and triiodothyronine glucuronide,combined with imaging findings.Also,no significant differences in serum metabolites were found in the N+ group compared with the N-group,and the presence or absence of lymph node metastases did not affect serum metabolites in patients with stage T1 PTC.

To investigate the postoperative anxiety and its relationship with life quality in patients with Ménière's diseases.
 Methods: A total of 68 patients with Ménière's disease, who received the treatment of endolymphatic sac decompression from 2010 to 2016, were enrolled. They finished two scales (the self-rating anxiety scale and the quality of life questionnaire for endolymphatic sac decompression of Ménière's disease) by snail mail. The patients were divided into different groups based on their preoperative course, postoperative follow-up time, clinic stage and quality of life after endolymphatic sac decompression surgery, and their anxiety was analyzed. In addition, 109 gender and age-matched patients with other diseases of otorhinolaryngology served as the control group, and their anxiety was also analyzed.
 Results: There was no statistical difference in the postoperative anxiety among the patients with preoperative course for less than 1 year, 1 to 5 years or more than 5 years (all P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the patients with different duration of follow-up (P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the patients with the different clinic stages (all P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the patients with the improved life or non-improved life after surgery (P>0.05). The degree of the anxiety in the Ménière's group was more severe than that in the control group (P<0.01).
 Conclusion: It needs to keep in mind that a certain degree of postoperative anxiety still keeps in patients with Ménière's disease.
