Purpose To analyze the clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical features, differential diagnosis and prognosis of papil-lary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). Methods Thirty-two cases of PRCC diagnosed were reviewed. A retrospective study was per-formed including reviewing the clinical documents, pathological sections and immunohistochemical stainning and follow-up was made of 32 cases of PRCC. Twenty-one patients were treated with radical nephrectomy, eleven patients were treated with partial nephrectomy. Results Among 770 cases of renal epithelial tumors 32(4. 2%) cases of PRCC were detected. Histologically, the PRCC were charac-terized by varying proportions of papillary and tubular architecture covered by single or multiple layer of tumor cells with scanty or volu-minous basophilic or eosinophilic cytoplasm. Foam cells and psammoma bodies were seen in some papillary cores and stroma, and the cytoplasm of some tumor cells contained hemosiderin. Of these 32 patients, 18 and 14 were diagnosed type-Ⅰand type-IIPRCC, re-spectively. Type-I, with small cuboid cell and pale cytoplasm, 16 of them were low in Fuhrman grading, Type-II, with large colunmar cells, rich in eosinophilic cytoplasm, 12 of them were high in Fuhrman grading. Immunohistochemically, the PRCC showed positive immunostaining for vimentin, EMA, CK(AE1/AE3), CK7, CD10 and AMACR. All the tumors studied were negative for CK (34βE12) and TFE-3. Follow-up data were available for 31 cases, 4 patients died of cancer specific causes, 1 with type-Ⅰand 3 with type-II tumors after surgery. The other 27 patients were alive without recurrence or metastasis. High Fuhrman grading, intravascular tumor emboli, lymph node metastasis and high clinical stage were prognostic indicators in PRCC. Conclusions PRCC with unique pathological features is not a common subtype of renal cell carcinoma in China. The presence of higher nuclear grade, sarcomatoid ele-ments or clear cell carcinoma structure may indicate an aggressive biologic behavior and poor prognosis. Close attention to the cytologic and growth pattern characteristics will allow us to arrive at the proper diagnosis in most cases, although sometimes immunohistochemis-try and rarely molecular genetic evaluation may be needed.

Objective:
Strategy for wound repair of skin and soft tissue defect and systematic rehabilitation treatment for functional reconstruction of patients with severe burn or trauma on knees.
Methods:
From January 2015 to October 2016, 26 patients with skin and soft tissue defect on knees after severe burn or trauma were hospitalized in our unit. Among these patients, 14 patients had patellar ligament defect, and 16 patients had knee joint capsule defect. Wound debridement was operated on 1 to 3 days after admission. After debridement, the area of skin and soft tissue defect ranged from 10 cm×7 cm to 42 cm×18 cm. Vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) treatment was performed after debridement, and flap transplantation operation was performed after VSD treatment for 5 to 7 days. Defects of nine patients were treated with local rotation flaps. Seven patients with skin and soft tissue defects on knees and knee joint capsule defects of 5 cm×3 cm to 9 cm×7 cm were treated with free anterolateral femoral flaps combined with fascia lata. Ten patients with skin and soft tissue defects on knees and patellar ligament defects of 6 cm×3 cm to 12 cm×4 cm were treated with free anterolateral femoral flaps combined with iliotibial tract. The area of flaps ranged from 11 cm×9 cm to 22 cm×15 cm. After flap transplantation operation, functional reconstruction of knee joint was carried out according to early, continuous, and sequential systematic rehabilitation treatment strategy. The pain degree and function of knee joint of patients were scored by the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Knee Evaluation Form before operation and 12 months after operation. The knee joint flexion and extension degrees of patients were measured by joint protractor in 2 weeks and 12 months after operation. The color Doppler ultrasound was used to evaluate integrity of knee joint capsule and continuity of patellar ligament of patients in 6 and 12 months after operation.
Results:
All flaps of 26 patients survived well, and wounds healed completely after the operation. Distal parts of flaps of 2 patients treated with free anterolateral femoral flaps had local necrosis after the operation, and their wounds healed after debridement and transplantation of autologous intermediate split-thickness skin graft of thigh. The IKDC Knee Evaluation Form score of patients was (79±8) points in 12 months after operation, which was significantly higher than (64±7) points before operation (
