Objective To investigate the imaging and condylar movements during mandibular opening/closing movement in AngleⅡ2 malocclusion accompanying one side of temporomandibular joint(TMJ)click before and after orthodontic treatment.Methods There were 20 AngleⅡ2 malocclusion patients with one side of TMJ click in treatment group,and 23 with the individual normal occlusion in control group.This study was performed taking the films of Sch?ller position before and after treatment,using CADIAX to record the condylar tracings during opening/closing movement and analyze the qualitative and quantitive changes.Results In AngleⅡ2 malocclusion patients,the condylar position of 58.33% patients recovered from retroposition to mesoposition.The condyle movement presented conspicuous verticality,the smoothing and symmetry were not well,and obvious improvements were observed after the treatment.All the index changed remarkably except the TCI and TCI of 5 mm.Conclusion It is suggested that orthodontic treatment can make the disc-condyle relationship return to normalization,and the condylar movement become much more coherent.

Objective To evaluate the surgical treatment for renal cell carcinoma with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus and the clinical significance of multidisciplinary treatment. Methods Two cases of renal cell carcinoma with inferior vena cava thrombus diagnosed by Doppler ultrasonography and CT were included in this retrospective analysis. The tumor thrombus was in level Ⅱ in one case and in level Ⅳ in the other. Coagulation test and complete blood count were done again before surgery. Human albumin, fibrinogen, prothrombin complex, plasma, platelet, UW and irrigating solution were prepared before the operation.Under general anesthesia, surgery was performed using abdomen inverted Y shaped incision. Right radical nephrectomy was finished by the urological surgeon; the vena cava was completely dissected from the renal vein level to the secondary porta of the liver by the hepatobiliary surgeon, the vena cava and the surrounding branch vein were blocked in the upper and lower vena cava tumor thrombus; tumor thrombus was removed completely by the vascular surgeon. In one case (patient with level Ⅳ thrombus ) where the tumour thrombus invaded the wall of the vena cava, the thrombus was found to be extending to the cavo-atrial junction but not into the right atrium. The left femoral venous-right atrial bypass was established, the cardiopulmonary bypass lasted for 241 mia, and the aorta was blocked for 18 min. Salvage autotransfusion was used during surgery, and the hepatic vein of the secondary liver porta was anastomosed to artificial vascular graft.The data for surgical indication, operation time, operative blood loss and postoperative hospital stay were analyzed. Results Right radical nephrectomy and inferior vena cava thrombectomy were performed successfully, and the two patients were discharged on the 15th and 27th day after surgery, respectively. The two patients were followed up for 1 and 16 months after surgery, respectively, and both survived without local recurrence and distant metastasis. Conclusion Radical nephrectomy and inferior vena cava thrombectomy is the preferred method for patients without metastasis, and multidisciplinary cooperation could shorten the operation time, reduce the tumor recurrence and increase the survival rate of patients.

Objective: To investigate the spectrum of mutations in families with benign familial neonatal-infantile epilepsy (BFNIE) . Methods: Clinical data and peripheral blood DNA samples of all BFNIE probands and their family members were collected from Peking University First Hospital between December 2012 and April 2016. Clinical phenotypes of affected members were analyzed. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples with standard protoco1. Mutations in PRRT2 were screened using Sanger sequencing. For families that PRRT2 mutations were not detected by Sanger sequencing, candidate gene mutations were further screened by next-generation sequencing for epilepsy. Results: A total of 7 families were collected. Of the 30 affected members, 15 were male and 15 were female. The age of epilepsy onset was from 2 days to 6 months. Genetic testing led to the identification of gene mutations in all families. One family had the PRRT2 hotspot mutation (c.649dupC). Three families had missense SCN2A mutations (c.2674G>A/p.V892I, c.2872A>G/p.M958V, and c.2627A>G/p.N876S) . Both c.2872A>G/p.M958V and c.2627A>G/p.N876S were novel SCN2A mutations. Three families had KCNQ2 mutations. Two of them had missense mutations (c.958G>A/p.V320I and c.998G>A/p.R333Q) . The KCNQ2 mutation c.958G>A/p.V320I was novel. One family had a gene deletion of KCNQ2, which also extended to the adjacent gene, CHRNA4; and the deletion involved all the exons of KCNQ2 and CHRNA4. Conclusions Mutations in KCNQ2, SCN2A, and PRRT2 are genetic causes of BFNIE in Chinese families. The detection rate for gene mutations is high in BFNIE families. KCNQ2 and SCN2A mutations are common in BFNIE families. SCN2A mutations (c.2872A>G/p.M958V and c.2627A>G/p.N876S) and KCNQ2 mutation (c.958G>A/p.V320I) are novel mutations.

Objective To investigate the gene mutations in benign familial infantile epilepsy(BFIE)in Chi-na. Methods Data of all BFIE probands and their family members were collected from Peking University First Hospital and other three hospitals between October 2006 and June 2017. Clinical phenotypes of affected members were analyzed. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples with standard protocol. Mutations in PRRT2 were screened using Sanger sequencing. For families that PRRT2 mutations were not detected by Sanger sequencing,candidate gene mutations were further screened by next - generation sequencing. Results A total of 71 families including 227 affected members were collected. Genetic testing led to the identification of gene mutations in 52 families (52 / 71,73. 2％). Forty - three families had PRRT2 mutations (43 / 71,60. 6％),including 40 families with frameshift mutations(hotspot mutations c. 649_650insC and c. 649delC were detected in 29 families and 6 families,respectively),one family with nonsense mutation,one family with a loss of a stop codon,and one family with a microdeletion of the gene. C. 560_561insT and c. 679C > T were novel PRRT2 mutations. Five families had SCN2A mutations. All SCN2A mutations were missense mutations(c. 668G > A,c. 752T > C,c. 1307T > C,c. 4835C > G,c. 1737C > G). Mutation c. 752T > C, c. 1307T > C,c. 4835C > G,and c. 1737C > G were novel mutations. Three families had KCNQ2 mutations. All KCNQ2 mutations were missense mutations(c. 775G > A,c. 237T > G,c. 1510C > T). Mutation c. 237T > G and c. 1510C > T were novel mutations. One family had a novel GABRA6 mutation c. 523G > T. In 71 BFIE families,16 families had mem-bers who showed paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesias(PKD)and subclassified as infantile convulsions with paroxysmal choreoathetosis syndrome(ICCA). Fifteen ICCA families were found having PRRT2 mutations (15 / 16,93. 8％). The remaining ICCA family was not detected with any pathogenic mutation. Conclusion There is high frequency of gene mutations in BFIE families. Mutations in KCNQ2,SCN2A,and PRRT2 are genetic causes of BFIE. PRRT2 is the main gene responsible for BFIE. GABRA6 mutation might be a new cause of BFIE.
