Objective To investigate the efficacy of different treatments for breast ductal carcinoma in situ. Methods From January 2010 to March 2015,a total of seventy-eight patients with intraductal carcinoma in Shanghai First People's Hospital Baoshan Branch were enrolled in the study. According to the different treatment methods,the patients were divided into the experimental group (33 cases) and control group (45 cases). The experimental group was given breast conserving surgery plus adjuvant radiotherapy,while the control group was treated with modified radical operation. The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, drainage volume and hospital stay were compared between the two groups. The survival and adverse events of the two groups were analyzed. Results The hospitalization time (( 8. 13 ± 3. 43) d), operation time (( 108. 56 ± 22. 27) min), intraoperative blood loss ((78. 72±30. 74) ml) and drainage ((259. 68±35. 95) ml) in observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group ((15. 56±2. 73)d,(148. 62±23. 85) min,(169. 28±26. 33) ml,(553. 37 ± 45. 64) ml) The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t＝12. 160, 9. 378,17. 304,38. 265,P＜0. 05). Log-rank test showed that the good prognosis rate of two groups in 24 months was 90. 32% and 88. 64% respectively,the difference was not statistically significant ( x 2＝1. 246,P＞0. 05) . Conclusion Breast conserving surgery plus adjuvant radiotherapy is the first choice for the treatment of breast ductal carcinoma in situ.

Objective To investigate the prognostic factors affecting the postoperative survival of patients with invasive bladder cancer,and to predict the survival time of the patients.Methods We retro- spectively analyzed the clinical and follow-up data of 178 patients with invasive bladder cancer treated by radical cystectomy and urinary diversion from 1991 to 2004.A multivariate analysis was performed in these patients by the Cox proportional hazard model.A prognostic index(PI)based on the Cox regression was con- structed.According to the individualized PI,the patients were classified into different hazard groups and the expected survival curve of each patient was calculated.Results Cox regression analysis showed that the factors which influenced the postoperative survival included tumor stage(RR=1.982,P=0.000),grade (RR=1.978,P =0.042),lymph node metastasis(RR=2.142,P=0.048),Tis(RR=6.177,P= 0.000),tumor shape(RR=0.416,P=0.003),number of tumors( RR=1.820,P=0.035),pathological type(RR=2.228,P=0.032),patient age(RR=0.672,P=0.025)and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (RR=0.257,P=0.016).Based on the percentile of PI,patients were classified into 3 prognostic groups; the median survival time of 3 groups were 42.5,22.5 and 7.0 months,respectively.There were significant differences between each 2 among the 3 groups(P＜0.01).Conclusions Neoadjuvant chemotherapy, tumor stage,grade,lymph node metastasis,Tis,shape and number of tumors,pathological type,patient age were important prognostic factors.PI value can be used to predict the prognosis of patients with invasive blad- der cancer.
