[Objective] To explore the diagnosis and treatment experience of tension hydrocele. [Methods] The clinical data of 2 patients with tension hydrocele treated in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Relevant literature was retrieved to analyze the clinical characteristics of this disease. [Results] Case 1 was diagnosed due to swelling and pain of the left scrotum after trauma for more than one month, which worsened for one day.Physical examination showed high tension in the left scrotum and positive light transmission test.Ultrasound examination revealed that the blood flow signal in the left testis disappeared.Emergency left scrotal exploration and hydrocelectomy were performed.There was no sign of testis torsion during the operation.Case 2 was diagnosed mainly due to hydrocele of the right testis for 1 year, which worsened for 1 week and complicated with testis distension and pain.Physical examination showed high tension in the right scrotum and positive light transmission test.Ultrasound examination revealed that the blood flow signal in the right testis decreased.After 40ml of fluid was extracted under ultrasound monitoring, the blood flow signal in the right testis recovered.Hydrocelectomy was performed the next day.During the follow-up of 8 months, there was no recurrence of hydrocele.A search of domestic and foreign literature showed that there were no reports in domestic literature, while a total of 11 cases were reported in foreign literature. [Conclusion] Tension hydrocele of the testis is a rare emergency of the scrotum.Surgery or decompression should be performed as soon as possible to restore testicular blood supply, and hydrocelectomy should be performed simultaneously or in stages to prevent recurrence.

Objective:To review and analyze the clinical diagnosis and treatment of renal Ewing's sar-coma with venous tumor embolus,to follow up the survival and prognosis of the patients,and to provide help for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.Methods:Clinical data(including general data,sur-gical data and postoperative pathological data)of patients diagnosed with renal Ewing's sarcoma with ve-nous tumor embolus in Peking University Third Hospital from June 2016 to June 2022 were collected,and the prognosis of the patients was followed up to analyze the influence of diagnosis and treatment process on the prognosis of the disease.Results:There were 6 patients,including 1 male and 5 females.There were 4 cases of left renal tumor and 2 cases of right renal tumor.The median age at diagnosis was 28 years(16-52 years).The imaging findings were all exogenous tumors with internal necrotic tissue and hemorrhage.The mean maximum tumor diameter was 12.6 cm,and the mean tumor thrombus length was 7.8 cm.Four patients underwent open surgery and 2 patients underwent laparoscopic surgery.The post-operative pathological results were renal Ewing sarcoma.Immunohistochemical results showed 3 cases of CD99(+),2 cases of FLI-1(+),and 1 case of CD99,FLI-1(-).3 patients received chemothera-py(cyclophosphamide,doxorubicin,vincristine/ifosfamide,etoposide),1 case received chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy,and 2 cases received no adjuvant therapy.The mean overall survival(OS)of the 6 patients was 37 months,and the mean OS of the 4 patients(47 months)who received chemo-therapy was significantly higher than that of the 2 patients(16 months)who did not receive chemotherapy(P=0.031).Conclusion:Renal Ewing's sarcoma with venous tumor embolus is rare in clinic,and it is common in young female patients.The operation is difficult and the prognosis is poor.Surgical resection,adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy can improve the overall survival rate of the patients.

Objective To discuss the clinic characters of clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma ( CCPRCC) and the efficacy of related laparoscopic surgery.Methods From October 2013 to December 2015, 4 cases were treated as CCPRCC including 3 male and 1 female.Their age ranged from 34 to 67 years old ( mean 53 years old) .The duration of illness ranged from 7 days to 3 months, which the average duration was 1.5 months.The location of tumor included left side in 2 cases and right side in other 2 cases.All tumors were found incidentally, without symptoms or positive sign.Ultrasound showed that 2 cases were solid, and the other 2 cases were cystic solid with low, high or mixed echo and rich blood flow signals.The tumors were enhanced in CT arterial phase, and calcification showed in one case.MRI showed heterogeneous signal.The mean size of tumor was 3.0 cm,ranging 2.3 to 4.5 cm.After preoperative examination, all cases underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.During the operation, 2 cases were confirmed as cystic solid tumors, and the other 2 cases were solid tumors.Renal artery and renal mass were dissociated , then the artery was blocked.The tumor was complete resected, and kidney was sutured. Results All surgery was performed successfully without conversion.The operation time was 137-191 min (average 157 min).The blood loss was 10-100 ml (average 45 ml) without blood transfusion.The warm ischemia time was 15-35 min ( mean 22 min) .The postoperative hospitalization time stay 6-8 d ( average 7 d).Pathologic report was CCPRCC, including 3 cases of WHO/ISUP grade 1, and 1 case of WHO/ISUP grade 2.2 cases were cystic solid tumor, and other 2 cases were solid tumor.Bland-appearing tubules and occasional small papillae, and uniform small nuclei are arranged in a linear manner away from the basal aspect of the tubules in microscope.Immunohistochemistry showed that CA IX, CK7, 34 E12 were positive, but CD10 , P504S and CD117 were negative.The mean duration of postoperative follow-up was 14 months, ranging 4 to 30 months.No recurrence was found in those patients.Patients were followed up for 4-30 months ( average 14 months) without recurrence or metastasis.Conclusions CCPRCC is a rare subtype of renal tumor, which mainly diagnosed by pathological diagnosis . Retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy is an effective method for the treatment with good prognosis.

Objective To explore the three ultrasonic technologies of two -dimensional ultrasound(2D -US),ultrasonic elastography(UE) and contrast -enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) for the measurement error in breast cancer and the correlation with the expression of ER,PR,VEGF.Methods 50 patients with breast cancer were meas-ured by 2D -US,UE,CEUS preoperatively,and the pathological specimen were measured postoperatively.Then used the immunohistochemistry to detect the expression of ER,PR,VEGF in tumor,and analyzed the correlation with the measurement errors.Results The results of differences between 2D -US,UE,CEUS and pathology were respectively as follows:( -0.59 ±-0.34)cm,( -0.20 ±-0.14)cm,( -0.40 ±-0.31)cm,and the differences were statistically significant(F =20.497,P <0.001).The positive expression rate of ER and PR was high if the difference between UE and 2D -US was less than or equal to 0.44cm.And the positive expression rate of VEGF was low if the difference between CEUS and 2D -US was less than or equal to 0.19cm.Three ultrasonic technologies in the measurement of breast cancer were different,the trend of difference between UE and 2D -US was smaller if the ER and PR were positively expression,and the trend of difference between CEUS and 2D -US was bigger if the VEGF was positively expression.Conclusion There is correlation between different immunohistochemical expression of breast cancer with measurement error in three different ultrasonic imaging technologies.The results suggest that the molecular pathology difference of breast cancer can impact on ultrasonic imaging,which contributes to know the reason and regulation of measurement error in different ultrasonic imaging technology.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of three-dimensional interactive reduction of femoral neck and shaft in treatment of irreducible femoral neck fracture.Methods The study enrolled 40 patients with irreducible femoral neck fractures treated by three-dimensional interactive reduction of femoral neck/shaft and internal fixation with three cannulated screws from June 2011 to July 2013 (study group).Frontal and lateral X-ray films were taken after operation.Garden index was used to evaluate the fracture reduction quality and Harris hip score was recorded.Meanwhile,a retrospective analysis was performed on 32 patients with irreducible femoral neck fractures treated by open reduction and internal fixation with cannulated screws between January 2008 and December 2010 (control group).Results Patients in study group obtained satisfactory reduction by minimally traumatic closed reduction.According to the Garden index,fracture reduction quality was level 1 in 24 patients and level 2 in 16 patients.Thirty-two patients were followed up for 12-28 months (mean,21 months),which showed fracture healing.At the final follow-up,Harris hip score was 87 points (range,61-100 points) and 4 patients had femoral head avascular necrosis.By contrast,6 patients in control group showed fracture nonunion.At the final follow-up,Harris hip score was 60 points (range,20-100 points) and 8 patients had femoral head avascular necrosis.Conclusion Three-dimensional interactive reduction of femoral neck and shaft provides good hip function recovery and decreased incidence of femoral head avascular necrosis and fracture disunion compared with the open reduction and internal fixation.

Objective To investigate outpatients' cognition towards common cold and their habituated medication so as to provide evidence for future public healthcare education.Methods Patients who attended hospital for diagnosis and treatment of common cold at least within past three months were asked to fill a questionnaire independently so as to learn their cognition towards common cold and medication habit.Results Among the patients underwent survey,52.2 ％ had incorrect knowledge about common cold; 2.99％ didn't know about the hazards of common cold; 34.80％ couldn't distinguish common cold from influenza; 30.07％ considered common cold couldn't get relief without treatment; 68.24％ didn't know about the proper effects of influenza vaccination; 6.4％ often took oral medicine even intravenous injection when they caught a common cold; 59.77％ often took medication from drugstore without prescription by doctor,and a few asked doctors to prescribe medicine on their request; 9.42％ didn't know about the side effects of drug for cold treatment; and 9.72％ didn't know about the active ingredients of drug for cold treatment.There were significant differences in the common cold cognition among population of different ages and education background.The older or the higher education status patients had a better cognition ( P ＜0.0 ).Conclusion There exist a certain degree of wrong cognition towards common cold among patients of different literacy degree and different age. Public health education on common cold need to be further strengthened.

Objective To investigate the effects of permissive hypercapnia (PHC) strategy used in ventilated newborn swine with respiratory failure on cerebral blood flow (CBF) and tissue metabolism. Method Eighteen newborn swine were randomly (random number) divided into 3 groups (n = 6): PHC, normocapnia (NC) and normal control groups. In PHC (PaCO2 50～60 mmHg) and NC (PaCO2 35 ～ 45 mmHg) groups, newborn swine were ventilated for treating respiratory failure induced by meconium aspiration. CBF was measured by using colored microsphere tracking technique. Cerebral oxygen metabolism rate (CMRO2), cerebral glucose metabolism rate (CMRGlu), and cerebral lactate production (CLP) were measured. Results After ventilation for 6 hours and 12hours, CBF in NC group decreased more significantly than those did in control group, and CMRGlu and CLP increased more significantly than those did in control group. In NC group, CMRO2 decreased more prominently than it did in control group 12 hours later. The CBF/CMRGlu and CBF/CLP ratios in NC group were lower than those in control(P＜0.05). There was no significant difference in CBF/CMRO2 ratio between NC and control groups. After ventilation for 6 hours, CBF in PHC group was lower than those in control group. But after ventilation for 12hours, CBF in PHC group increased and there was no significant difference in CBF between PHC group and control group (P＞O.05). There were no significant differences in CMRGlu, CLP and CMRO2 between PHC group and control group. The CBF/CMRGlu and CBF/CLP ratios in PHC group were lower than those in control, but higher then those in NC group (P＜0.05). There was no significant difference in CBF/CMRO2 ratio between PHC and control groups. Conclusions The reduction of cerebral blood flow and the disturbance of CBF autoregulation disturbance occur in ventilated newborn swine with hypoxemia respiratory failure. PHC may attenuate the reduction in CBF and the disturbance of CBF autoregulation.

Objective To describe our experience in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP)for incidental prostate cancer after TURP. Methods From April 2007 to July 2010, 5 patients with incidental prostate cancer after TURP were treated with a mean age of 73 years. The patients underwent LRP (2.8± 1.1) months after TURP. Results The five cases of LRP were performed successfully, with 1 case of transperitoneal approach and 4 cases of extraperitoneal approach. Mean operation time was (227.6±38.4) min, mean blood loss was (130±152.5) ml, and the mean follow-up was (16.1 ± 15.9) months. All five patients survived, and their urinary function was good without any incontinence. Conclusions Previous TURP represents a technical challenge when performing LRP, but highly skilled surgeons trained to perform LRPs can handle it.

Objective Sperm screening is an essential step in IVF procedures. The swim-up method, an assay on sperm motility, is used clinically to select the ideal sperm for subsequent manipulation. However, additional parameters, including acrosome reaction capability, chemotaxis, and thermotaxis are also important indicators of mammalian sperm health. To monitor both sperm motility and chemotaxis simultaneously during sperm screening, we designed and constructed a microdevice comprising a straight channel connected with a bi-branch channel that mimics the mammalian female reproductive tract. Methods The width and length of the straight channel were optimized to select the motile sperm. Cumulus cells were selectively cultured in the bi-branch channel to generate a chemoattractant-forming chemical gradient. Sperm chemotaxis was represented by the ratio of the sperm swimming towards different branches. Results The percentage of motile sperm was improved from ( 58. 5 ± 3. 8 ) % to ( 82. 6±2.9)% by a straight channel 7 mm in length and 1 mm in width. About 10% of sperm were found chemotactically responsive in our experiment, which is consistent with previous studies. Conclusion The combined evaluation of both sperm motility and chemotaxis was achieved for the first time, and the motile and chemotactically responsive sperm can be easily enriched on a lab-on-a-chip device to improve IVF outcome.
