Objective To explore the short-term efficacy in children with head and neck rhabdomyosarcoma (HN-RMS) treated by multidisciplinary therapy,and to analyze the prognostic factors,so as to guide the diagnosis and treatment.Methods Patients with HN-RMS admitted at Hematology Oncology Center of Beijing Children's Hospital (BCH),Capital Medical University between December 2012 and May 2017,were included in this case-observation study.The clinical characteristics were analyzed and the treatment effect and prognostic factors were summarized.Results A total of 48 cases were collected,including 36 boys and 12 girls,with a median age of 4.6 years.Primarysite parameningeal RMS(PM-RMS) (34 cases,70.8％),orbital (2 cases,4.2％) and non-orbital,non-parameningeal region(12 cases,25.0％) were found.Twenty cases belonged to alveolar type(41.7％),and 28 cases were of embryonaltype(58.3％).The diameter of the tumor was ＞5 cm(n =25,52.1％),and ≤5 cm(n =23,47.9％).IRS staging:there were 29 cases(60.4％) of stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ,19 cases (39.6％) of stage Ⅳ;29 cases (60.4％) of low-medium risk,and 19 cases (39.6％) of high risk.Twenty-three patients (47.9％) received surgery,and 25 cases (52.1％) received biopsy only.All patients (48 cases) received systemic chemotherapy.Twenty patients (41.6％) received external radiation,15 cases (31.3％) received 125I particle implantation,6 cases (12.5％) received proton therapy,but 3 cases (6.2％)did not receive radiation.The follow-up time lasted 13-57 months[(24.1 ± 12.3) months].The 2-year overall survival(OS) rate was (66.4 ± 7.2)％,and 2-year event free survival (EFS) rate was (59.9 ± 7.5) ％.Patients with tumor diameter ≤ 5 cm had higher OS and EFS than patients with tumor diameter ＞5 cm [2-year OS (87.4±6.8)％ vs.(42.9 ±6.8)％,2-year EFS (78.8 ±8.6％) vs.(38.5 ±10.8)％],and the differences were statistically significant (all P =0.006).Patients with orbital and non-orbital,non-parameningeal RMS had higher OS and EFS than PM-RMS [2-year OS 100％ vs.(87.5％ ± 11.7) ％ vs.(57.0 ± 8.8) ％;2-year EFS 100％ vs.(88.9 ± 10.5)％ vs.(51.1 ± 8.9)％],and the differences were statistically significant (P =0.008,P =0.030).Patients who received surgery had higher OS and EFS than those who did not received surgery [2-year OS (80.7±8.8)％ vs.(53.3 ± 10.4)％;2-year EFS (71.1 ±10.1)％ vs.(49.5±10.4)％],and the differences were statistically significant (P =0.008,P =0.026).COX regression analysis showed tumor diameter ＞ 5 cm was an adverse prognostic factor (OR =4.124,95％ CI:1.213-14.025,P =0.023).Conclusions PM-RMS accounted for a high proportion in RMS patients.The primary site and the size of the tumor are the main prognostic factors.Intensive therapy is expected to improve the prognosis of HN-RMS with meningeal invasion.

Objective To explore the significance of the initial clinical symptoms and clinical manifestations of neuroblastoma(NB)to achive early identification of NB. Methods A retrospective study was performed on patients diagnosed with NB,who attended the Hematology Oncology Center,Beijing Childrenˊs Hospital from March 31st ,2007 to March 31st,2015. The clinical characteristics were compared between the children 〈1_year_old and≥1_year_old. The result was analyzed to compare the difference in clinical symptoms and tumor biologic characteristics of patients with different initial clinical symptoms between 2 groups. Results A total of 330 patients were included in the study,43 of them were younger than 1 year old,and their most common symptoms were cough and fever( each 17 cases,and accounted for 39. 5%,respectively);while the most common symptoms in patients≥1_year_old(287 cases)was fe_ver(177 cases,61. 7%),followed by lymphadenopathy(107 cases,37. 3%),bone pain(97 cases,33. 8%)and anemia (48 cases,16. 7%). The frequency of symptoms differed significantly between 2 groups(all P〈0. 05),such as fever (39. 5% vs. 61. 7%,χ2 ﹦6. 68),anemia(4. 7% vs. 16. 7%,χ2 ﹦6. 00),bone pain(0 vs. 33. 8%,χ2 ﹦18. 99),abdo_minal pain(0 vs. 25. 3%,χ2 ﹦10. 19),diarrhea(16. 3% vs. 3. 0%,χ2 ﹦12. 73),lymphadenopathy(7. 0% vs. 37. 3%, χ2 ﹦14. 12)and anorexia(9. 3% vs. 33. 4%,χ2 ﹦9. 21). Datients had fever,anemia,lymphadenopathy,cutaneous hemorrhagic spot or periorbital ecchymosis,bone pain,abdominal pain,exophthalmos,and anorexia early in the initial course of the disease,whose serum lactate dehydrogenase values were significantly increased(P〈0. 05). Datients suf_fered from fever,anemia,lymphadenopathy,bone pain,limbs dysfunctions,abdominal pain at the beginning of the disease,whose urine vanillymandelic acid values were higher than normal(P〈0. 05). Conclusions The study of sympto_mology suggests the most common symptoms in patients with NB 〈1_year_old are cough and fever,while those ≥1_year_old are fever,lymphadenopathy,bone pain,and anemia. Por patients with symptoms mentioned,carrying out the necessary NB_diagnose_related laboratory and imaging studies was statistically relevant to patientsˊ ages(〈1_year_old and≥1_year_old),which may contribute to earlier identification and diagnosis of NB.

Objective:To study the characteristics and related factors of neonatal intestinal necrosis caused by midgut volvulus.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of neonates with midgut volvulus who were admitted to Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center, from January 2009 to December 2019 and confirmed by surgery. The cases with intestinal necrosis belong to the intestinal necrosis group, and those without intestinal necrosis, the non-intestinal necrosis group which was randomly sampled at a ratio of about 4∶1 to the number of cases in the intestinal necrosis group. The two groups were compared in terms of personal history, age of onset, initial symptoms, vital signs within 2 h after admission, time from symptom onset to operation, clinical outcome, laboratory indicators within 2 h after admission, etc. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the related factors of intestinal necrosis in midgut volvulus. The effective warning indexes are screened by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:(1) Among 231 cases of midgut volvulus, 21 cases (9.1%, 21/231) had intestinal necrosis at the time of operation, 87 cases were included in the non-intestinal necrosis group. (2) The levels of heart rate within 2 h after admission, mean arterial pressure, WBC, C reactive protein (CRP), blood glucose and potassium in intestinal necrosis group were significantly higher than those in non-intestinal necrosis group ( P<0.05). Admission days of age, hemoglobin, serum albumin, serum sodium, pH and BE levels were significantly lower than those in the group without intestinal necrosis ( P<0.05). (3) In the multivariate analysis, increased heart rate, mean arterial pressure, serum CRP, and decreased serum sodium, serum albumin, and pH levels were predictors related to intestinal necrosis in patients with midgut volvulus. (4) The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of CRP was 0.883, the cutoff value was 9.88 mg/L, the sensitivity was 76.2%, and the specificity was 94.3%. The ROC curve of serum albumin was 0.792, the cut-off value was 36.65 g/L, the sensitivity was 70.1%, and the specificity was 94.3%. Conclusions:Heart rate, mean arterial pressure, increased CRP, decreased serum sodium, serum albumin and pH are helpful to predict whether intestinal necrosis occurs in midgut volvulus, and CRP > 9.88 mg/L and serum albumin < 36.65 g/L are likely warning indicators.

Objective:To summarize the clinical features of neuroblastoma (NB) with bone metastasis in infants and the prognostic factors.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 32 patients aged ≤12 months who were enrolled in Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2010 to December 2019 and had imaging findings suggesting signs of distant bone metastasis.The control group was included NB children, aged ≤12 months, who were admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University during the same period, without signs of distant bone destruction.The clinical manifestations and auxiliary examinations of infants with bone metastasis were summarized, and the efficacy evaluation and survival analysis of infants with regular treatment and follow-up were conducted until December 31, 2020. Kaplan- Meier survival analysis was used for prognostic analysis, and Log Rank test was used for univariate prognostic analysis. Results:There were 32 NB infants with bone metastases, involving 12 males (37.5%) and 20 females (62.5%), accounting for 16.0% (32/200 cases) of infants diagnosed with NB du-ring the same period.The median age of onset was 9 (4.5-12.0) months.The main primary site included the retroperitoneal and adrenal region in 24 cases(75.0%) and mediastinum in 3 cases (9.4%). Among the 32 cases, 14 cases (43.8%) had simple bone metastasis, 19 cases (59.4%) had distant lymph nodes, 18 cases (56.3%) had bone marrow, and 3 cases (9.4%) had intracranial and meningeal metastasis.Bone metastasis mainly occurred in the skull, with 11 cases of single bone metastases and the remaining with 2 or more bone metastases.Compared with 168 NB infants without bone metastasis, the prognosis of those with bone metastasis was significantly worse [3-year overall survival(OS) rate 97.6% vs.82.7%, P=0.001]. Univariate analysis showed that the prognosis of NB children with bone marrow metastasis, meningeal and intracranial metastasis, MYCN gene amplification, and high-risk group was poor (all P<0.05). Two patients returned to the local hospital for treatment after diagnosis.A total of 30 children were recruited for efficacy evaluation and prognostic analysis.Twenty-nine children underwent surgery, of which 6 cases received surgery before chemotherapy and 23 cases received surgery after chemotherapy.One case received chemotherapy only.The mean course of chemotherapy was 6.2 (4-13) times.One case was treated with radiotherapy, 1 case was treated with Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) therapy, and 1 case was treated with stem cell transplantation.A total of 18 cases (62.1%) event-free survived, and 12 cases (40.0%) had a mean event at 7 (1.5-32.0) months.Among them, 7 cases survived and 5 cases died (16.7%). The expected 3-year event-free survival rate and OS rate were 57.1% and 82.7%, respectively. Conclusions:The most common sites of infant NB metastasis are bone and bone marrow, and the most common sites of bone metastasis are skull.Infants with bone metastasis had a worse prognosis than those without bone metastasis, and infants with bone and bone marrow metastasis had a worse prognosis than infants with single bone metastasis.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of applying the programmed management procedure in the prenatal diagnosis of pyriform sinus fistula(PSF).Methods:This study retrospectively enrolled eight fetuses with PSF who were managed according to the programmed management procedure for prenatal diagnosis of PSF, which was established in January 2016, in Guangzhou Women's and Children's Medical Center from January 2016 to October 2020. The procedure consisted of the detection of fetal neck cysts by prenatal ultrasound followed by further confirmation by MRI, evaluation of the degree of airway compression, indwelling gastric tube after birth, no oral feeding, complement of CT/MRI, and surgical treatment within a limited time after necessary preoperative examination. The prenatal diagnosis, postnatal treatment, and follow-up were summarized using descriptive analysis.Results:(1) Prenatal: The gestational age at the first detection of cervical cysts by prenatal ultrasound was (27.1±4.1) weeks and all the cysts were located on the left side. Prenatal MRI indicated that the largest cysts was (32.0±12.2) mm in diameter, and the tracheal transit index was (10.9±2.8) mm. (2) After birth: Among the eight children, five were males and three were females, with the gestational age of (38.0±0.9) weeks and birth weight of (3 020±459) g. One case was intubated during labor due to a intrauterine tracheal transposition index of 17.4 mm. All infants were not allowed for oral feeding. The median age at CT/MRI examination was 2.5 d (1-8 d), which revealed that the maximum diameter of the cysts was (40.6±6.9) mm and visible air bubbles in all cysts. The infection index before operation was not high and the age at operation was (8.6±2.3) d. All cysts were completely removed and the PSFs were ligated at a higher position, with the average operative duration of (95.0±19.6) min, and the postoperative duration of mechanical ventilation and hospitalization of 5 h (3-71 h) and (8.8±1.0) d, respectively. No complications such as hoarseness were reported. During the follow-up of 4 to 58 months through outpatient clinic and telephone, no recurrence were observed.Conclusions:The programmed management procedure can provide guidance for postnatal treatment of patients with a prenatal diagnosis of PSF, and help to achieve a successful treatment result.

Objective:To observe and analyze the clinical characteristics of children who died of intraocular retinoblastoma (RB).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. Fourteen children (23 eyes) with intraocular RB who died after receiving treatment in Beijing Children's Hospital from 2009 to 2017 were included in the study. Among the children, there were 7 males (10 eyes) and 7 females (13 eyes); 5 had unilateral and 9 had bilateral tumor. Age were 17.2±15.5 months. All children underwent RetCam examination. RB was staged according to the international intraocular RB classify. Among the 23 eyes, 1 eye was in stage B, 2 eyes were in stage C, 12 eyes in stage D, and 8 eyes in stage E. Treatment methods included a systemic (vincristine, etoposide and carboplatin) chemotherapy (VEC chemotherapy), enucleation surgery, and vitrectomy. The basic conditions including age, time of diagnosis, pathological diagnosis, treatment and main causes of death were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among the 14 cases, the first symptom was leukemia in 12 cases, red eye in 1 case, and squintin in 1 case. Systemic VEC chemotherapy was used for 1-6 courses of treatment; 5 cases were enucleated, 3 cases underwent histopathological examination; 3 cases were treated with vitrectomy. Among the 3 cases who underwent histopathological examination, the sclera and optic nerve, optic nerve and optic disc were invasted respectively. Seven patients died of tumor metastasis and/or intracranial lesions (50.0%, 7/14); the median survival time was 19 months. Four patients died of treatment (28.6%, 4/14), including 3 patients died of chemotherapy-related side effects, and 1 died of organ failure after enucleation surgery (7.1%); the median survival time was 3.5 months. Early abandonment of treatment died in 3 cases (21.4%, 3/14); the median survival time was 15 months.Conclusion:Intracranial metastasis is the main cause of death in children with intraocular RB.

Objective To summarize the clinical data and characteristics of neuroblastoma (NB) with pancreatic infiltration and to assess the clinical features and the prognosis of NB.Methods According to NB protocol at Beijing Children's Hospital,Capital Medical University(BCH-NB-2007),based on Hong Kong NB protocol,the patients were divided into 3 groups of low-risk (LR) group,medium risk (MR) group and high-risk (HR) group.All children were followed up till March 31,2017.Diagnosis of pancreatic infiltration of NB was made by abdominal enhancement of CT,enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or 18-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography-computed tomography(18F-FDG-PET/CT),any of which could suggest NB pancreatic infiltration or postoperative pathology prompted NB to infiltrate the pancreas.Retrospective summary and analysis of indicators were performed,which included the initial diagnosis of primary tumor and metastatic tumor site,tumor markers,clinical stage,risk group,imaging features and treatment.Results (1) Totally 50 eligible patients were included:27 females,23 males,median age of 33 months (7-129 months),10 cases ≤ 18 months,40 cases ＞ 18 months;3 cases were of International Neuroblastoma Staging System(INSS)-Ⅲ,47 cases of INSS-Ⅳ;2 caes of LR,3 cases of MR,45 cases of HR;28 cases had a fever,27 cases with abdominal mass,14 cases with abdominal pain,9 cases with limb pain,5 cases with vomiting,4 cases with diarrhea,and 1 case with jaundice.Forty-nine cases of primary tumor were located in the retroperitoneal adrenal gland,and 1 case in the pelvic cavity.Thirty-two cases had tumor diameter≥ 10 cm.(2)Tumor markers and imaging features:the median serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) value in 50 cases was 669 U/L (263-6 762 U/L),of them 19 cases ＞ 1 000 U/L.A total of 80％ cases had neuron specific enolase (NSE) ＞ 0.15 ng/L.Nine cases had elevated amylase (AMY),and 7 cases had elevated lippase (LPS),and all the levels were elevated in 5 cases.A total of 41 cases had pancreas infiltration by abdominal ultrasound,44 cases had pancreas infiltration by abdominal enhancement computed tomography (CT),100％ (14/14 cases)of pancreas infiltration was confirmed by abdominal reconstruction enhancement nuclear imaging MRI,and NB pancreas infiltration was proved in 41.3％ (19/46 cases) by 18F-FDG-PET/CT.Comparison of the above 4 imaging studies:one imaging examination index was positive in 7 cases,accounting for 14.0％,2 positive in 26 cases,accounting for 52.0％,3 positive in 15 cases,accounting for 30.0％,and 4 positive in 2 cases,accounting for 4.0％.(3) Treatment outcomes:totally 50 cases received treatment,including 2 cases of LR,all cases were of INSS-Ⅲ,and 1 case with complete remission (CR).Three cases of MR belonging to INSS-Ⅳ had complete resection of the tumor,1 case had recurrence and died,and the other two were stable.Forty-five cases with HR,median follow-up lasting for 15 (4-53) months,16 cases had occurrence (35.6％),3 cases were relapsed after stopping treatment for 2,3,18 months,respectively;tumor progressed in 12 patients during treatment,and 1 case got severe intracranial infection and gave up treatment before death.Kaplan-Meier analysis showed the expected 3-year event free survival(EFS) rate was 22.1％,and 3-year overall survival(OS) rate was 38.5％.Conclusions Preliminary results show that 90％ with pancreatic infiltration of NB belong to Ⅳ HR group of children,and almost primary tumor is almost located in the retroperitoneal ragion.NB with pancreatic infiltration clinical manifestations is hidden and nonspecific.More than half of the children have no obvious abdominal pain or vomiting,and so imaging examination is needed to determine the situation of pancreatic metastasis further.Abdominal reconstruction enhancement MRI has a high sensitivity and specificity for pancreatic metastatic lesions,which can be used as the basis for early diagnosis.The overall prognosis is poor.The expected 3-year EFS rate can be 22.1％,3-year OS rate was 38.5％.
