Objective To discuss the clinical manifestation and pathology of papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC).Methods From January 2007 to January 2012,the clinical and pathologic data of 25 patients (17 males and 8 females with average age of 54 years ranging from 24-76 years) with PRCC were retrospectively analyzed in combination with review of literature.The clinical stages of the tumor were as follows,Ⅰ in 16 cases,Ⅱ in 5 cases,Ⅲ in 4 cases.And the radiographic inspections of PRCC were compared with that of 100 randomly selected clear renal cell carcinoma (CRCC).Results All the PRCC cases had different imaging presentations compared with CRCC.CT attenuation of CRCC was higher than that of PRCC in corticomedullary,nephrographic and excretory phase (P＜0.05).Heterogeneous enhancement was most commonly seen in CRCC than PRCC (P＜0.05).There were 21 patients underwent radical nephrectomy,and 4 patients underwent laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery.The pTNM stages of the tumor were as follows,pT1N0M0 in 16 cases,pT2N0M0 in 5 cases,pT3aN0M0 in 2 cases,pT1N1M0 in 1 case,,pT2N1M0 in 1 case.Of these 25 patients,8 (32％) and 17 (68％) were diagnosed as type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ PRCC,respectively.All the 25 cases of patients were followed up from 6 to 60 months.One case died of metastasis,1 case died of cerebrovascular disease and the other 23 patients survived with tumor-free.Conclusions PRCC is a special type of RCC with low morbidity.Radiological examination can be used in the differential diagnosis of CRCC and PRCC before surgery.The prognosis after surgical treatment is good,but the adjuvant systemic treatment is to be study.

Objective To discuss the clinical and pathological features of urachal carcinoma.Methods The clinical and pathological data of 7 patients diagnosed as urachal carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed,and the cIinicopathologic features,diagnosis and treatment,surgical characteristics and surgical outcomes were reviewed.There were 6 males and 1 female.Patient's age ranged from 26-75 years,with average of 52 years.Examinations before surgery included ultrasound,cystoscopy,urine cytology,CT and IVU.Six patients underwent extensive partial cystectomy and 1 patient underwent conventional partial cystectomy. Results Pathological diagnosis were 5 cases of mucinous adenocarcinoma,1 case of not classified adenocarcinoma,1 case of small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma.Clinical stages according to Sheldon staging system were 6 cases of stage ⅢA and 1 case of ⅢC.One patient died of bone metastasis 3 months after operation,1 patient experienced recurrence in bladder neck and urethra in 15 months and 24 months after operation and received TUR-Bt,the other 5 patients were alive without recurrence and metastasis with follow-up of 2-30 months. Conclusion Urachal carcinoma is a rare malignancy,and patients with this disease haye a poor prognosis.

This study aimed to investigate the synergistic effect of lidamycin (LDM) and rituximab on human B cell lymphoma Ramos cells. Cell proliferation was measured using MTS assay, cell apoptosis was analyzed by Annexin V-FITC/PI assay, the expression of apoptosis related proteins was analyzed by Western blotting, and the in vivo lymphoma inhibition was verified using BALB/c mice inoculated via tail vein using Ramos cells which stably expressed pEGFP-N1 plasmid. The results showed that, after the pretreatment with rituximab for 48 h, rituximab and LDM showed significantly synergistic effects on cell proliferation. Cells in combined treatment group had a higher apoptosis rate than that in LDM treatment group. Compared with the LDM treatment group, the expression of apoptosis-related proteins such as Cleaved caspase-3, Cleaved caspase-7, Cleaved caspase-9 and Cleaved PARP in combined treatment groups increased, and expression of cIAP-2 and Bcl-2 decreased. The result of in vivo experiment showed that, in the combined treatment group, the survival time of BALB/c mice was significantly longer than the mice in control group and LDM treatment group, and the degree of tumor accumulation and metastasis to lymph nodes and spleen was lower.
