Objective To explore the lymph nodes (LN) metastasis characters of the endometrial carcinoma and its relation with the patients' prognosis. Methods A retrospective study was carried out on 227 cases of endometrial carcinoma who admitted to our department and underwent LN excision from Jul. 2000 to Feb. 2008. Results Among 227 cases who underwent pelvic LN excision, there were 22 cases (9.7%) presented LN metastasis. There were 12 cases with positive external iliac LN from 20 cases of patients with data in LN grouping. Para-aortic LN excision was carried out on 138 patients. There were 6 cases with positive para-aortic LN, 5 cases of them together with pelvic LN metastasis. Those patients with cervix involvement, annex metastasis, deep myometrium infiltration, grade 2-3 and negative estrogen receptor occurred pelvic LN metastasis more frequently than the others ( P < 0. 05 ). Among the 6 cases with positive para-aortic LN, there were 3 cases ( 3/6) with deep myometrium infiltration. For those whose paraaortic LN was negative, it was only 16. 7% (22 cases). But there were no difference statistically between them ( P> 0. 05 ). There were significant difference in 3 years disease-free survival rate between patients with positive pelvic LN or negative pelvic LN [(81. 8 ± 8. 2)% vs ( 97. 4 ± 1. 2 ) % , P = 0. 004]. While there were not significant difference in 3 years disease-free survival rate between patients with positive para-aortic LN or negative para-aortic LN [100% vs ( 96. 7 ± 1. 6) % , P > 0. 05]. Single factor analysis showed that the age more than 50 years, annex metastasis and pelvic LN metastasis related with the recurrence (P <0. 01). But cervix involvement, deep myometrium infiltration, para-aortic LN metastasis, pathology type, tumor grade and estrogen receptor did not relate with the recurrence ( P > 0. 05 ). Cox regression analysis showed that annex metastasis and the age of patients were independent risk factors affecting the recurrence ( P = 0. 011, P = 0. 025 ). Conclusions The most common site of pelvic LN metastasis is the external iliac LN for endometrial carcinoma patients. The patients with positive para-aortic LN always accompanied pelvic LN metastasis. Those patients with cervical involvement, annex metastasis, deep myometrium infiltration, poor differentiation and negative estrogen receptor be more likely exist pelvic LN metastasis. Pelvic LN metastasis may affect the prognosis of endometrial carcinoma patients.

Objective To explore the prevalence of parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) and its risk factors in elderly people after gastrointestinal operation. Methods Seventy-five patients received parenteral nutrition (PN) after gastrointestinal operation were retrospectively analyzed. Age, height, body mass index, suftering diseases, history of diseases, time of therapy, total calorie, nonprotein calorie, the kind and amount of fat emulsion and amino acid, the amount of glucose, non-protein energy to nitrogen ratio, ratio of glucose to lipid, liver function, renal function and blood routine were collected. Results The prevalence of PNALD was 25.3% (19/75). The total calorie, nonprotein calorie, the amount of protein, the amount of glucose and ratio of glucose to lipid were obviously higher in PNALD group than in non-PNALD group [(24.0±6.5) vs. (20.7±5.4)kcal·kg-1·d-1, (20.5±5.5)vs. (17.2±4.8)kcal·kg-1·d-1, (1.0±0.3)vs. (0.9±0.2)g ·kg-1·d-1, (2.9±0.9)vs.(2.3±0.9)g·kg-1·d-1, 1.5±0.7 vs. 1.1±0.5; all P<0.05], while the hemoglobin was lower in PNALD group [(97.4±15.1)vs. (110.1±19.1)g/L, P<0.05]. The kind of fat emulsion and amino acid, gender, history of diseases, suftering diseases, body mass index, serum albumin, leukocyte levels and renal function were comparable between the two groups (χ2=0.114,0.843,0.116,0.531,0.344,1.588,0.006,0.063 and 0.549, all P>0.05). Conclusions The prevalence of PNALD is 25.3% in 75 elderly patients after gastrointestinal operation. Total calorie, the amount of glucose and the ratio of glucose to lipid should be reduced in these patients for preventing PNALD.

Objective To explore the clinicopathological characteristics in atypical endometrial hyperplasia patients. Methods A retrospective study was carry out on 79 cases with atypical endometrial hyperplasia patients admitted to Department of Gynecology, Peking University People's Hospital from Mar.2007 to Jul. 2010. All patients were divided into two groups, hyperplasia group (merely atypical endometrial hyperplasia, 49 cases, 62%) and cancerization group (atypical endometrial hyperplasia accompanying endometrial carcinoma, 30 cases, 38%). Results The mean age of 79 cases were (50 ± 11) years old ,while they were (50 ± 10) and (51 ± 11) years old for hyperplasia group and cancerization group, there were not difference (P = 0.994). The gravidity and delivery frequencies were also not differently between two groups. The rates of complicated other diseases were 47% (23/49) and 43% (13/30), which was not significantly different (P = 0.755). The body mass index (BMI) of cancerization group was higher than that of hyperplasia group [(27.9 ± 5.4) vs. (25.2 ± 2.9) kg/m2, P = 0.024]. There were 50% (15/30) and 31% (15/49) menopause cases in two groups, respectively. Among them there were 13/15 and 8/15 cases showed vaginal bleeding. Among premenopausal patients, there were 12/15 and 68% (23/34) showed abnormal vaginal bleeding, but there were not significantly different between two groups (all P > 0.05). The uterine cavity mass found by ultrasonography in the cancerization group patients was more than that in hyperplasia group [73% (22/30) vs. 51% (25/49), P = 0.050]. There were 23 cases (29%), 44 cases (56%) and 12 cases (15%) were diagnosed by dilatation and curettage (D&G), hysteroscopy and hysterectomy, respectively. The rates of diagnosing atypical endometrial hyperplasia by D&G and hysteroscopy were 87 % (21/23) and 93 % (41/44), respectively. The rate of diagnosis of canceration were 6/12 and 12/16, respectively. While, the rate of missed diagnosis of canceration in the atypical endometrial hyperplasia patients by D&G and hysteroscopy were 6/13 and 19% (4/21) ,respectively. Which all did not shown significantly different (P > 0.05). Conclusion Hysteroseopy or D&G should be chosen on those peri-menopausal patients with abnormal bleeding, while those atypical endometrial hyperplasia patients with high BMI and uterine cavity mass diagnosed with D&G and ultrasonography should consider the possibility of canceration.

Objective To evaluate the effects of lipid emulsion on parenteral nutrition associated liver dis ease (PNALD) in old tumor patients. Methods A retrospective study was performed with 402 patients in Renji Hospital from January 2003 to December 2008. Patients were retrieved according to the following criteria: (1)age ≥60 years; (2) confirmed diagnosis of tumor, had no evidence of metastasis, and tumor was completely resected before receiving parenteral nutrition; (3) liver and kidney function was in normal range before receiving parenteral nutrition; (4) parenteral nutrition days ≥7; and (5) parenteral nutrition was infused in "all in one" bag via central venous. Patients with history of viral hepatitis or died in parenteral nutrition episode were excluded. These 402 patients aged (71.7 ±6.8) years and the average parenteral nutrition time was (10. 2 ±5.9) (range, 7-61 )days. In 311 patients (77.4%), non-protein calorie was obtained from carbohydrate and lipid and 91 patients (22. 6% ) just obtained non-protein calorie from carbohydrate. Results The total prevalence of PNALD was 15.2% (61/402). The prevalence of PNALD was 8.8% (8/91) in patients receiving parenteral regiment without lipid and 17.0% (53/311) in patients receiving parenteral nutrition with lipid, and there was no significant difference in prevalence of PNALD between two groups (χ2 = 3.72, P = 0.07 ). Lipid type and amount showed no significant effects on PNALD ( P > 0.05 ). The fever days ( P < 0. 001 ), baseline level of alanine transaminase (P <0. 001 ) and γ-glutamyltransferase (P <0. 001 ) were risk factors for liver injury by logistic regression. Conclusion Lipid emulsion can be safely used in old tumor patients without affecting the occurrence of PNALD.

Objective:To investigate the molecular classification of endometrial carcinoma (EC) and atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) treated with fertility-sparing therapy, and to analyze its relationship with clinicopathological factors and treatment efficacy.Methods:A total of 46 EC and AEH patients who received fertility-sparing therapy and molecular classification tested by next generation sequencing in Peking University People's Hospital from June 2020 to December 2021, were retrospectively collected. The relationships between molecular classification and clinicopathological factors and treatment outcomes were analyzed.Results:(1) Of the 46 patients, including 40 EC and 6 AEH patients, 32 cases (71%, 32/45) had complete response (CR) after treatment, with median CR time of 8 months, 6 cases (13%, 6/45) had partial response, and 8 cases (25%, 8/32) had recurrence. (2) The cases were distributed as no specific molecular profile (NSMP) 34 cases (74%, 34/46) subtype mainly, high microsatellite instability (MSI-H) 7 cases (15%, 7/46), POLE ultra-mutated 3 cases (7%, 3/46), and copy number high (CNH) 2 cases (4%, 2/46). Patients with CNH had the hightest serum cancer antigen 125 (CA 125) level [(34.3±35.2) kU/L]. MSI-H subtype had more family history of tumors (6/7), more with loss of mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression by immunohistochemical (7/7), and higher nuclear antigen associated with cell proliferation (Ki-67) expression level (3/3). (3) Patients in MSI-H subgroup had the lowest CR rate at 6 months (0/6; P=0.019), and survival analysis showed that they were less likely to achieve CR than those with NSMP subtype ( P=0.022). Subgroup analysis of patients with NSMP showed that age ≥30 years related with longer treatment time to CR ( P=0.010). In addition, CR was obtained after treatment in 2/3 POLE ultra-mutated cases and 2/2 CNH, respectively. Conclusions:Molecular classification relates with the treatment response in patients with EC and AEH treated with fertility-sparing therapy. Patients with MSI-H subtype have poor treatment efficacy, and patients with NSMP need to be further studied and predict treatment benefit. However, there are few cases in POLE ultra-mutated and CNH subtypes, which need further clinical research.
