Objective To observe the ultrasonographic features of local chest wall tumor recurrence after mastectomy for breast cancer and its clinical and histopathological characteristics. Methods The ultrasonographic features, clinical and histopathological characteristics of 27 patients with local chest wall tumor recurrence after mastectomy confirmed histopathologically were retrospectively reviewed. Results The disease-free intervals of twenty-seven patients ranged from 3 to 129 months [mean (31.9±31.4) months]. Most of the recurrence(18/27, 66.7%) occurred within 3 years after mastectomy. The clinical manifestations were:7 cases (7/27, 25.9%) with regional skin redness and swelling, red rash or ulceration on chest wall associated with or without palpable mass, 20 cases(20/27, 74.1%) with chest wall palpable masses without obvious skin change. On ultrasonography, 2 cases showed diffuse inifltrative type with ill-deifned inhomogeneous hypoechoic lesion and skin thickening. And twenty-ifve cases(43 lesions) showed mass type with a lesion size range of 5.4-114.7 mm [mean (24.4±21.6) mm]. Among them, 32 lesions were located near to the operation incision scar, 36 involved muscle layer, 38 were hypoechoic, 31 had irregular shape, 24 had indistinct margin, and 31 had blood lfow signal. In addition, calciifcation, halo, and taller-than-wide shape were absent in all 43 lesions. Conclusions The tumor recurrence often occurred within 3 years after mastectomy in high-risk patients. Ultrasonographic feature of chest wall recurrent lesion is of great value in the diagnosis.

Objective To study the expression of human kallikrein gene(KLK) 4 and KLK5 in ovarian cancers,and to investigate the pathogenesis in malignant tumors. Methods Fifty specimens of ovarian cancers were divided into three groups: malignant tumor group(n=23),borderline tumor group(n=6) and control group(normal or benign tumor,n=21).Fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR was employed to determine the expression of KLK4 and KLK5 in these specimens. Results The expression of KLK4 in ovarian cancers was significantly higher than that of the control group(P

Objective To study the clinical and pathologic features of chromphobe renal cell carcinoma (ChRCC) and to evaluate the conventional pathologic prognostic parameters in prognosis.Methods Seventy-five cases (42 males and 33 females) with pathological confirmed ChRCC (36 on the left and 39 on the right kidney) after nephrectomy during 1998 to 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Patient's age ranged from 25 to 74 years, with a mean age of 56 years. Evaluation of conventional prognostic parameters was carried out. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to study the survival relationship. Results The mean tumor diameter was 7.3 cm. The majority of tumor macroscopic surface color was gray and yellow or gray and red. The majority of tumor cells were big polygon chromphobe cell or small round eosinophils. The TNM stages of these ChRCC were as follows: 30 cases in T1N0M0, 1 in T1N0M1, 26 in T2N0M0, 1 in T2N0M1, 11 in T3N0M0, 3 in T3N0M1, 1 in T3 N1 M0, 1 in T4 N0 M1 and 1 in T4 N1 M1. The pathologic grade of ChRCC was G1 in 3 cases, G2 in 24cases, G3 in 46 cases and G4 in 2 cases. All the 75 cases were followed up for 9 to 93 months (mean 44months), 7 patients died and others were alive without recurrence and metastasis. 3-year and 5-year survival rates were 93.3% and 90. 7%, respectively. The univariable analysis showed that tumor size (P=0. 028), TNM stage (P＜0. 001) were associated with tumor progression. The multivariable Cox regression model revealed that TNM stage was an independent predictor of aggressive ChRCC. Conclusions The ChRCC tumors are generally larger than other types of RCC and with a favorable prognosis. Fuhrman nuclear grade is not suitable for ChRCC. TNM stage is an independent predictor of aggressive ChRCC.

Objective To investigate the clinic pathologic features of young patients with renal malignant tumour by comparing with older patients. Methods The clinical data of 83 younger adults(age,≤40 years) with renal cell carcinoma and 703 cases of older renal cell carcinoma (age＞40 years)was analyzed and compared retrospectively. All of the patients were surgically treated between 1986and 2007. Results Among patients with symptoms, younger female patients were more likely to have abdominal pain(12/27, 44.4% vs. 154/703, 21.9%)and mass (2/27, 7.4% vs. 154/703,1.3%)than older (P＜0.05). The older groups were more likely to have dear cell carcinoma than in the younger(501/703, 71.3% vs. 47/83, 56.6%)(P＜0.05). The rate of PRCC has the trends to be higher in young patients than that in older patients (21/83, 25.3% vs. 118/703, 16.8%) (P=0.054),especially in male patients (17/56, 30.4 %) (P=0.011). The rate of MFH and leiomyosarcoma was significantly higher in young patients than that in older patients (6/83, 7.2% vs. 12/703,1.7%) (P＜ 0.05), especially in female patients (4/27,14.8%). Younger male patients were more likely to have a higher incidence of small tumors (T≤4 cm)(24/56,42.9 % vs. 173/703,24.6 % )(P＜0.05)and a lower incidence of big RCC(T＞7 cm) than older patients(12/56,21.4% vs. 295/703,42.0%) (P＜0.05). Conclusion Younger female renal cell carcinoma patients tends to have worseprognosis than older patients, while younger male patients have better prognosis due to different pathology.

The morbidity of diabetes has been increasing rapidly in recent years. Delayed wound healing has become a common complication in diabetes, which seriously affects the orthobiosis of patients. Exploring and finding the molecular mechanisms of diabetic wound healing and the effective therapies to promote wound healing have important clinical significances. Stem cells transplant has become a research hotspot in accelerating diabetic wound healing. This article reviewed the present approaches concerning stem cells transplant in diabetic wound healing both at domestic and abroad, and looked forward the clinical therapy of stem cells on diabetic wound healing.
