Objective To explore the atypical ultrasonic appearances of breast fibroadenoma and analyze the cause of mis diagnosis.Methods A total of 493 lesions in 485 patients of breast fibroadenoma detected by ultrasound examination andconfirmed by pathology were retrospectively analyzed.Atypical appearances were analyzed and misdiagnosis rate were cal-culated.Statistical methods were taken to compare the misdiagnosis rates in lesions with various atypical appearances andthose with none or single atypical appearance.Misdiagnosis rates in lesions with different sizes and pathological types wereanalyzed statically.Then misdiagnosing causes were analyzed.Results A total of 404 lesions were diagnosed correctly,in-cluding 99 lesions with atypical appearances,and the other 89 lesions were misdiagnosed,which showed atypical appear-ances.The misdiagnosis rate of lesions with ≥2 atypical features was higher than that with none or single atypical feature(x2 =256.40,P＜ 0.05).Large lesions (maximum diameter＞ 3 am) showed higher misdiagnosis rates than small ones(maximum diameter ≤3 cm,x2=6.73,P＜0.05),and complex fibroadenoma lesions also showed higher misdiagnosisrate than simple ones (x2 =188.01,P＜0.05).Conclusion The lesions with various atypical appearances,large size andcomplex fibroadenoma in pathology are easy to be misdiagnosed.

Objective To probe the characteristics of the ultrasonography of the intrahepatic duct cystic tumor(IDCT).Methods The ultrasonography of 12 patients with IDCT was analysed.The results were compared with the operation and pathology.Two of them were intraductal papillary adenomas,six were papillary adenocarcinomas,two were biliary cystadenomas and two were biliary cystadenocarcinomas.Results The ultrasonic diagnostic rate was 75%(9/12).The bile ducts of 10 cases(83%) were cystically dilated.Seven cases(58%) with thick walls of bile ducts were all malignant.Six tumors(50%) with intraluminal papillate echoes could be malignant or benign.The tremellose echoes were detected in 7 cases(58%) and the common bile ducts of six cases were obstructed by the tremellose substance.Conclusions It is the important diagnostic basis of IDCT that the bile ducts in some liver lobal or segment are dilated without reasons,with the thick bile duct wall and the poor ultrasound penetration,especially when the bile ducts are full of tremellose substance and the papillomas are detected in the ducts.It is of significance in the clinic to raise the early diagnostic rate of IDCT by ultrasound.

Objective To observe the preliminary clinical results and safety of 27-gauge microincision vitrectomy surgery for partial vitreoretinal diseases.Methods A total of 13 patients (13 eyes) who underwent 27-gauge microincision vitrectomy surgery were enrolled.The follow-up period was 6 to 12 months.Preoperative and postoperative visual acuity and intraocular,total operative time,cutting time for removing vitreous,wound healing status,intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed.Results Mean best corrected visual acuity improved from preoperative (1.26±0.66) logMAR (0.10±0.09) to postoperative (0.63±0.52) logMAR (0.35±0.24),and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.743,P=0.018).The difference of mean preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP),IOP of postoperative day 1,day 5,one month and final postoperative visit were not statistically significant (F=0.593,P＞0.05).The mean total operative and cutting times were (36.38±14.97) min and (10.12±3.54) min respectively.Postoperative scleral incision showed linear closure,no cases of postoperative sclerotomyrelated complications such as wound dehiscence,vitreous incarceration and subcoujunctival fluid were observed.No intraoperative and postoperative complications of iatrogenic retinal breaks,endophthalmitis,choroidal detachment,retinal detachment and vitrous hemorrhage were observed.Conclusions The 27-gauge microincision vitrectomy surgery can improve postoperative visual acuity for treatment of vitreoretinal diseases and induce fewer sclerotomyrelated complications,which maybe a safer surgical approach.

Object The immunoregulation function was studied in experimental animals to observe the effect of single and/or combined use with Radix Aconiti (RA) and Radix Stephaniae Tetrandrae (RST). Methods The response of delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) in mice, the phagocytosis of abdominal macrophages (M?) in mice, and the production of special antibodies in mice were observed. Results The two Chinese materia medica (CMM) in combination use could induce the increasing of phagocytosic function of M? hypoimmunitic model mice, the inhibiting on the responses of DTH in the hyperimmunitic model mice and the non immunosuppressive treated mice. On the production of special antibodies in mice, the enhance effect was found in RA used in single, and the suppressive effect was found when using the combination of the two CMM. Conclusion In accordance with the mechanism of the disorder between the anti inflammation effect and the induce inflammation effect to arthritis in the immune system, these data indicate that the bidirectional effect of combination of the two CMM used on the immune responses, may be the involved mechanism on treating arthritis.

Objective To probe the clinical diagnosis value of high frequency ultrasonography (HFUS) in thyroglossal duct cyst(TDC). Methods Forty-one TDC were taken HFUS and the location, boundary,shape,interal echo of lesions and the relation to hyoid bone were observed. The periphery and internal blood flow signal were detected by color Doppler flow imaging. The results of HFUS were compared with those of pathology after operation. The cases were divided into groups according to pathological types and were compared with acoustic image shows. Results All cases were diagnosed TDC by pathology after operation. Internal walls of 9 TDC consist of cilium columnar epithelium, 19 consist of stratified pavement epithelium and 13 consist of this two epitheliums. HFUS showed different pathological types had different ultrasonic appearances. In this study, 77.8%(7/9) TDC with columnar epithelium showed echoless,84.2 (16/19) TDC with pavement epithelium showed similar solid echopattern and TDC with two epitheliums mainly showed similar solid echopattern and multi-room cyst. Hyperechogenicity of hyoid bone displayed around the lesion in 80.5%(33/41)TDC. No blood flow signal showed in 41 TDC and a little punctiform blood flow signal showed in the periphery of 5 TDC. The diagnose accordance rate of HFUS in TDC was 95.1%(39/41). Conclusions HFUS can clearly show the location, boundary, shape,interal echo of TDC and its relation to hyoid bone. HFUS is important for diagnosis and differential diagnosis of TDC.

Objective To probe the value of color Doppler ultrasonography (CDU) in differential diagnosis of the pure mucinous adenocarcinoma of breast (PMAB) and adenofibroma of breast (AFB).Methods Twenty-five cases of PMAB and 30 cases AFB were examined by CDU. The sonographic appearance, interior and peripheral blood flow distribution and Doppler frequency of the tumors were observed and analyzed. The results of the diagnoses of CDU and the pathologies were compared. Results The diagnostic rates of PMAB and AFB by CDU were 76.0% and 93.3%, respectively. The clear peplos was observed in 90% of AFB, and internal even echoes. Yet no peplos was observed in PMAB, and the internal echoes of most PMAB were confused and disordered. The detection rate of Ⅰ ～ Ⅱ stage blood flow in adenofibroma of breast was only 40% and that of Ⅰ ～ Ⅲ stage blood flow in PMAB was high to 76%.The detection rate of blood flow stage and the resistant index (RI) of the blood flow frequency spectrum of PMAB and AFB were significantly different. Conclusions CDU has significant clinical value in differential diagnosis of pure mucinous adenocarcinoma and adenofibroma of breast.

Objective To probe the differential diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasonography(CDU)in cystitis glandularis.Methods Thirty-nine cystitis glandularis and 192 bladder cancer were examined with CDU.The location,shape,boundary,internal echo and relationship with wall of urinary bladder of lesion were observed.Internal blood flow disposition of lesion were detection.The results of CDU were compared with those of cistoscope biopsy and pathologic diagnosis after operation.Results 59.0%(23/39)cystitis glandularis and 52.9%(74/140)bladder cancer lesions located in trigone of bladder and surrounded the orifice of ureter.53.8%(21/39)cystitis glandularis showed part wall thickening and 72.9%(140/192)bladder cancer showed single nodus or bolus.Sacculiform anechoic area were observed in 69.2%(27/39)cystitis glandularis and were not observed in bladder cancer.Punctiform hyperechogenicity appeared in periphery of 48.4%(93/192)bladder cancer and 7.7%(3/39)cystitis glandularis.The detection rate of interior blood flow signal of bladder cancer was 84.9%(163/1 92),which was obviously higher than that of cystitis glandularis.The diagnostic accurate rates of CDU in cystitis glandularis and bladder cancer were 84.6%(33/39)and 95.3%(183/192),respectively.Conclusions CDU can clear display the location,shape,boundary,internal echo and relationship with wall of urinary bladder of cystitis glandularis and is of important value in diagnosis,differential diagnosis and clinical fllow-up of cystitis glandularis.

ObjectiveTo probe the value of transrectum ultrasound (TRUS) in evaluating the effect of new adjuvant therapy (NAT) in treating middle-low level rectal cancer (MLLRC).MethodsTRUS was used to examine 82 cases of MLLRC before and after NAT.All cases were pathologically confirmed.The results of TRUS before and after NAT were compared.ResultsThe diagnostic rate of TRUS in MLLRC was 97.6％(80/82).The up to down range and thickness of foci of 80 cases which were detected by TRUS before NAT showed different degree diminution after NAT( P ＜0.05).The number of lymph node around rectum decreased obviously ( P ＜0.05).Only the lymph nodes of 5 cases of all lymph nodes detected by TRUS before and after NAT showed dot flow signal.ConclusionsTRUS can clearly showed the MLLRC foci,internal flow signal and lymph nodes around rectum.This is of important value in evaluating the effect of NAT,choosing the therapeutic schedule and avoiding over therapy.
