Objective:To study the clinicopathological features of mixed epithelial and stromal tumor of the kidney(MESTK). Methods:Clinical and pathological characteristics of one case of MESTK was stu-died. Results:A case of MESTK which uncommonly occurred in a 16-year old adolescent male presented with dysuria and a large mass in the right renal region without a history of estrogen/progestogen treatment and/or obesity or urogenital surgery. Radiology revealed a large cystic/solid mass within the right kidney. Grossly, it was well demarcated and had a solid and cystic appearance on sectioning. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of a mixture of stromal and epithelial components. The epithelial component was composed of flat to columnar cells forming glands or tubules. The stromal components essentially consisted of bland, loosely packed spindle cells in an edematous and myxoid background. In some areas, there were smooth muscle cells forming bands and fascicles but no ovarian-type stroma was present. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that the epithelial components were positive for AE1/AE3 and focally positive for estrogen receptor(ER),progesterone receptor(PR), CD10 and Vimentin, whereas the stromal components were positive for ER, PR, Desmin and smooth muscle actin(SMA). Both epithelial and stromal components were negative for HMB-45, S-100,?-inhibin and WT-T. Five months after resection, the patient was well without evidence of recurrence. Conclusion:MESTK occurred in a pubertal male, as in the current case, supports the hypothesis that proliferation of remnants of the primitive mesenchyme in the kidney in situation of sex-steroid abnormity may play an important role in the pathogenesis of male MESTK.

One case of ectopic twin pregnancy in right fallopian tube after in vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET) was admitted in our hospital.The development was in synchrony and the mainly manifestation was vaginal bleeding after menopause and abdominal pain.After surgery,the patient recovered well.Six cases reported in domestic literature occurred after assisted reproductive technology,including 4 cases after IVF-ET and 2 cases after artificial insemination.Two cases developed synchronously with the main manifestation of menopausal vaginal bleeding and recovered well after treatment.In 4 cases of non-synchronous embryos,after medical or surgical treatment irregular vaginal bleeding occurred,adnexal mass on the other side was found by gynecological ultrasound and blood hCG level increased significantly.Three cases recovered well after drug and/or surgical treatment and 1 case lost follow-up.

Objective To evaluate the impact of gross tumor volume(GTV)on prognosis of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3DCRT)in esophageal carcinoma.Methods From Jan.2004 to Oct.2007,131 stageⅠ-Ⅲb patients with unreseetable esophageal carcinomas who received 3DCRT with 60 Gy/ 30f/6w were analyzed retrospectively.The effectiveness of related prognostic factors on survival was evaluated by univariate and multivariate analyses.Results The following-up rate was 100%.By univariate analysis,the 1-,2-and 3-year local tumor control rates were 71%,64%and 60%for patients with GTV volume≤40 cm3,and 43%,32%and 28%for those with GTV volume>40 cm3(X2=13.16,P=0.000).respectively.The 1-,2-and 3-year local tumor control rates were 67%,59%,59%for T1+2 patients,62%,53%,50%for T3 patients,and 41%,28%,19%for T4 patients,respectively(X2=13.25,P=0.001).The 1-,2-and 3-year survival rates were 78%,53%,46%for patients of GTV volume≤40 cm3 and 45%.27%and 7%for patients of GTV volume>40 cm3(X2=21.55,P=0.000).The 1-,2-and 3-year survival rates were 71%,50%and 39%for patients with T1+2,68%,46%and 25%with T3,and 36%,18%and 15%with T4,repectively(X2=14.35,P=0.001).The 1-,2-and 3-year survival rates for patients with tumor length≤5 cm were 75%,50%and 44%,compared with 53%,35%and 18%with tumor length>5cm(X2=5.99,P=0.014).By multivariate analysis,GTV volume and T stage were likelv to be independent prognostic factors for local tumor control rates(X2=7.07,P=0.008;X2=6.63,P=0.036).Only the GTV volume was associated with the overall survival rate(X2=15.82,P=0.000).Conclusions GTV volume is independent prognostic factor.The larger the GTV volume is,the worse the prognosis will be.

Objective To evaluate the respiration-induced target volume motion in 3D-CRT for mid-thoracic esophageal carcinoma in order to guide the radiation oncologist to choose the expansion marginfor ITV.Methods Ten patients with mid-thoracic esophageal carcinoma were scanned by multi-spiral CTsimulator respectively in free breathing(FB),breath.hold after normal inspiration and expiration(IBH and EBH)with the same scanning range.Then the CT images of three series were transfefred to the treatmentplanning system.The target volume was outlined following the same standard.The motion of the centerpoint of GTV,the center point of each slice of GTV and the edge of the GTV in selected slice weremeasured respectively to obtain the comprehensive value of GTV motion。in order to find the appropriate IMvalue according to the 95％confidence interval of the GTV motion.Results①The GTV motion betweenIBH and EBH was(0.19±0.16)cm in the left.right direction,(0.54±0.19)cm in the cranial andcaudal irection.and(0.16±0.14)cm in anterior.posterior directions for the center of GTV,.For thecenter point of each slice of GTV.they ere(0.19±0.15)cm,(0.54±0.16)cm,(0.16±0.13)cm in three directions above.respectively.For the edge of the GTV in selected slice.they were(0.26±0.19)cm,(0.54±0.18)cm,(0.24±0.19)cm,respectively.The comprehensive value of GTV motion between IBH and EBH was(0.23±0.17)cm,(0.54±0.17)cm,(0.21±0.17)cm.respectively.The 95％confidence interval was 0.21-0.25 cm.0.53-0.56 cm and 0.19-0.22 cm in three directions.②The direction of GTV motion：No motion was noticed in 8.2％.while 73.3％to the right side and 18.5％to the left side in the left-right direction when IBH were compared with EBH.100％were moved to caudal in the the cranial and caudal direction[(0.54±0.17)cm].In the anterior-posterior direction,no motion was noticed in 8.2％,while 16.6％to the posterior and 75.2％to the anterior when IBH were compared with EBH.③The GTV motion was correlated with the vafiance of 1ung volumes in IBH-EBH(r=0.683,P=0.032)and not with GTV volume and length.Conclusions Respiration can induce target volume motion in 3 DCRT for mid-thoracic esophageal carcinoma.Compared to EBH.the GTV tends to move to the caudal,the anterior and the ight side in IBH.

Objective To evaluate the respiration-induced dosimetric variance in 3DCRT for midthoracic esophageal carcinoma, in order to guide the radiation oncologist to choose the expansion margin. Methods Ten patients with mid-thoracic esophageal carcinoma were scanned by multi-spiral CT simulator respectively in free breathing ( FB), breath-hold after normal inspiration and expiration ( IBH and EBH )with the same scanning range. Then the CT images of three series were transferred to the treatment planning system. The target volume was outlined following the same standard. Plan1 was designed in the images of FB and transported completely to the images of IBH and EBH as Plan2 and Plan3 respectively to observe the dosimetric variance in target volume. Results For GTV, there was a statistical difference only in V100 of the three plans ( H = 6.423, P = 0.040 ) and no significant difference was found in other indexes. For CTV, the V100 and V95 were better in Plan1 (F=3.992, P=0.030; H=9.920, P=0.007) and no significant difference was found in other indexes. While ()TV, the Dmin, V100 and V95 was better in Plan1 ( F = 3.677, P = 0.039; F = 4.539, P = 0.020; H = 6.846, P = 0.033 ) and no significant difference was found in other indexes. There were no significant differences in all the indexes for the spinal cord and lung in the three plans. Conclusions The change in dose distribution was not so much with the standard expansion. It can meet the needs of clinical treatment.

Objective: To study the influence of inflammatory cytokine TNF-? on the expression of adhesion molecules and specific markers of rat MSCs, and to study the optimal stimulation of MSCs with inflammatory factors in inducing adhesion molecule expression which promotes migration of MSCs to the ischemic area in liver. Methods: The MSCs stimulated with different concentration of TNF-? were detected for adhesion molecules and stem cells markers on cell surface with the method of flow-cytometry, MSCs which were stimulated with the optimal concentration of TNF-? and labeled with 1, 1-Dioctadecyl-3, 3, 3, 3-tetramethylindocarbocyanine Iodade(DiI)were delivered intravenously to the rats whose liver was injured by ischemia, the liver function of the experimented animals were tested, and liver samples in the ischemic area were obtained, the number of MSCs was counted under a fluorescent microscope. Results: Stimulated with TNF-?, MSC ex-pression of VCAM-1 increased, while that of stem cell markers did not change markedly. Exposed to lower concentration of TNF-?, the adhesion ability of MSCs obviously increased and more MSCs rested in the ischemic areas in the rat liver, compared to the control groups. Conclusions: TNF-? can increase the expression of VCAM-1 on rat MSCs while exert little effect on the stem cell character of MSCs. Suitable concentration of TNF-? can promote MSCs migration to the damaged tissue, which provides rationale for the treatment of liver disease.

Objective To explore the expression of miR-221/222 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its correlation with clinical pathological parameters. Methods The clinical pathological data and formalin fixed-paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues of 55 NSCLC patients and 10 benign lesion patients who underwent surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanhua University from February 2012 to May 2014 were collected and followed. The relationship between miR-221/222 expression detected by real-time PCR and clinical pathological parameters and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed. The differential survival between the high expression group and the low expression group of miR-221/222 were compared. A Cox proportional hazard regression model was utilized to examine the prognostic factors of NSCLC. Results The expression level of miR-221/222 was significantly higher in tumor tissues than that in corresponding benign lesion tissues (Fold change=3.52, P=0.000;Fold change=2.01, P=0.000). There was a negative correlation between miR-221/222 expression and pathological grades (r=-0.732, P=0.000;r=-0.451, P=0.001). The relative expression of miR-221 showed a positive correlation with miR-222 (r=0.376, P=0.000). Patients with higher levels of miR-221/222 were closely associated with a shorter PFS (miR-221: 55.43 weeks vs. 81.29 weeks, P=0.028; miR-222: 45.00 weeks vs. 87.04 weeks, P=0.008). Finally, multivariate analysis demonstrated that miR-222 expression was independently associated with poor PFS (RR=2.808, P=0.033). Conclusions miR-221/222 is highly expressed in NSCLC tumor tissues with a positive correlation. A negative correlation is observed between the expression of miR-221/222 and tumor differentiation. The potential high expression of miR-221/222 is considered as tumor biomarkers for the prognosis of NSCLC patients.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of salvage radiotherapy for supraclavicular lymph node metastasis ( SLNM) after initial treatment in patients with esophageal cancer. Methods A total of 117 patients with SLNM after radical resection for esophageal cancer were enrolled as subjects from 2006 to 2012. All patients received three?dimensional radiotherapy with 1. 8?2. 0 Gy per cycle, 5 cycles a week. The survival rates were calculated using the Kaplan?Meier method and analyzed using the log?rank test. The Cox model was used for multivariate analysis. Results The follow?up rate was 100%. In all the patients, the 1?and 3?year overall survival (OS) rates were 38. 5% and 14. 1%, respectively. The 1?and 3?year OS rates were significantly higher in patients treated with salvage radiotherapy or radiochemotherapy ( n=100) than in patients without any salvage treatment (n=17)(42% vs. 18%,P=0. 008;17% vs. 0%, P=0. 008). The patients treated with radiochemotherapy ( n=32) had significantly higher 1?and 3?year OS rates than those treated with radiotherapy alone (n=68)(59% vs. 34%, 36% vs. 11%, P=0. 002) or without any salvage treatment (n=17)(59% vs. 18%, 36% vs. 0%, P=0. 002). Patients without visceral metastasis (n=80) had significantly higher 1?and 3?year OS rates than those with visceral metastasis ( n=37) ( 44% vs. 27%, P=0. 002;22% vs. 0%,P=0. 002) . Patients with supraclavicular doses of ≥60 Gy in salvage radiotherapy ( n=75) had significantly higher 1?and 3?year OS rates than those with supraclavicular doses of<60 Gy in salvage radiotherapy ( n=25) ( 75% vs. 25%,P=0. 000;24% vs. 8%,P=0. 000) . The multivariate analysis using the Cox model showed that supraclavicular doses of ≥60 Gy, mediastinal metastasis, visceral metastasis, and salvage treatment method were independent factors for survival ( P=0. 001,0. 015,0. 009, 0. 025) . Conclusions Salvage radiotherapy can improve the survival of patients with SLNM in esophageal cancer. Salvage radiotherapy or radiochemotherapy is highly recommended for patients with SLNM alone. A radiation dose of ≥60 Gy in salvage radiotherapy improves survival in patients.
