Objective:To study the clinicopathological features, immunohistochemical phenotypes, molecular changes, differential diagnosis and prognosis of isolated intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (iIDC-P).Methods:Three iIDC-P cases were collected retrospectively from 2016 to 2022 at Ningbo Clinical Pathology Diagnosis Center, Ningbo, China. The clinicopathologic features and immunophenotypic profiles were studied using light microscopy and immunohistochemistry. A targeted next-generation sequencing panel was used to analyze cancer-associated mutations. Follow-up and literature review were also performed.Results:The patients′ ages were 61, 67 and 77 years, and their preoperative prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels were 7.99, 7.99 and 4.86 μg/L, respectively. Case 1 and 2 were diagnosed on needle biopsy and radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens, and case 3 was diagnosed on a specimen of transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). The RP specimen was entirely submitted for histologic examination. In the case 1, iIDC-P was found in one tissue core (involving two ducts) in the biopsy specimen, and in 6 sections (diameter, 0.3-1.1 cm) from the radical prostatectomy specimen, and one section had separate foci of low-grade acinar adenocarcinoma (diameter, 0.05 cm). In the case 2, 6 tissue sections from the biopsy specimens showed iIDC-P, and 13 sections from RP specimen showed iIDC-P (diameter, 0.5-1.6 cm), and the other 3 sections had separate low grade acinar adenocarcinoma (diameter, 0.6 cm). In the case 3, 5 tissue blocks from the TURP specimen showed iIDC-P. The case 1 and 2 showed solid architecture with expansile proliferation of neoplastic cells in native ducts and acini. The case 3 showed dense or loose cribriform pattern, with marked cytological atypia, and frequent mitotic figures. Comedonecrosis was found in solid or dense cribriform glands in the case 2. Immunohistochemically, surrounding basal cells were highlighted using high-molecular-weight cytokeratin (34βE12 and CK5/6) and p63, while P504s was positive in the tumor cells. The tumor cells were also positive for AR and prostate markers (NKX3.1, PSA and PSAP), and negative for GATA3. The iIDC-P and acinar adenocarcinoma both showed weak PTEN expression and no ERG (nuclear) expression. In case 2 and 3, targeted sequencing revealed activated oncogenic driver mutations in MAPK and PI3K pathway genes (KRAS, MTOR and PTEN). In addition, pathogenic mutation in TP53 and FOXA1 mutation were found in the case 2 and 3, respectively. No case demonstrated TMPRSS2::ERG translocation. All cases were microsatellite stable and had lower tumor mutation burdens (range, 2.1-3.1 muts/Mb). The patients showed no biochemical recurrence or metastasis after follow-up of 16-91 months.Conclusions:iIDC-P is a special type of intraductal carcinoma of the prostate and differs from intraductal carcinoma within high-grade prostate cancer. iIDC-P has unique molecular characteristics and may represent as a molecularly unique in situ tumor of prostate cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the application of surgical strategies for the treatment of cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) involving the C ₂ segment. METHODS: The literature about the surgery for cervical OPLL involving C ₂ segment was reviewed, and the indications, advantages, and disadvantages of surgery were summarized. RESULTS: For cervical OPLL involving the C ₂ segments, laminectomy is suitable for patients with OPLL involving multiple segments, often combined with screw fixation, and has the advantages of adequate decompression and restoration of cervical curvature, with the disadvantages of loss of cervical fixed segmental mobility. Canal-expansive laminoplasty is suitable for patients with positive K-line and has the advantages of simple operation and preservation of cervical segmental mobility, and the disadvantages include progression of ossification, axial symptoms, and fracture of the portal axis. Dome-like laminoplasty is suitable for patients without kyphosis/cervical instability and with negative R-line, and can reduce the occurrence of axial symptoms, with the disadvantage of limited decompression. The Shelter technique is suitable for patients with single/double segments and canal encroachment >50% and allows for direct decompression, but is technically demanding and involves risk of dural tear and nerve injury. Double-dome laminoplasty is suitable for patients without kyphosis/cervical instability. Its advantages are the reduction of damage to the cervical semispinal muscles and attachment points and maintenance of cervical curvature, but there is progress in postoperative ossification. CONCLUSION OPLL involving the C ₂ segment is a complex subtype of cervical OPLL, which is mainly treated through posterior surgery. However, the degree of spinal cord floatation is limited, and with the progress of ossification, the long-term effectiveness is poor. More research is needed to address the etiology of OPLL and to establish a systematic treatment strategy for cervical OPLL involving the C ₂ segment.

Objective To study the long-term efficacy of bladder pressure expansion and perfusion therapy by bladder hydraulic expansion with alkalify lidocaine,heparin,dexamethasone for the treatment of ketamine correlation cystitis Methods From January 2008 to September 2011,the data from 19 male and 3 female patients,who were diagnosed as ketamine-associated cystitis was retrospectively analyzed.The mean age was (26 ± 5)years old.All patients accepted bladder pressure expansion under the spinal and epidural anesthesia.After expansion,the silicon three-channel catheters were left in those patients.2％ lidocaine (20 ml) and 5％ bicarbonate (10 ml) was perfused into the bladder.Meanwhile,the heparin (2.5 U) and dexamethasone (10 mg) were added into the solution,as well.After perfusion,the catheter was clamped until the patient could not tolerate.The perfusion was performed three times every day for 5 days.The volume of urine was recorded each time.The OABSS score,urine volume,maximum urine flow rate,day and night urination frequency were followed within 5 years.And the data was compared with those preoperative and postoperative 1 week,1 month,3 months,6 months.Results 22 patients accepted the procedure successfully.No complications,such as fever or bladder rupture,occurred.At the end of 5 years,the bladder volume daily urinating frequency,night urinating frequency,maximal flow rate,OABSS score were (238.3 ± 37.3) ml,9.2 ± 2.3,2.1-± 1.3,(18.2 ± 8.3) ml/s,4.4-± 2.4,respectively.Compared to the one week and one month after the operation,those results have significant difference (P ＜ 0.01).Compared to the 3 months after the procedure,the bladder volume has significant difference [(238.3-± 37.3) ml vs.(158.3-± 18.3) ml,P ＜ 0.01].No significant differences were noticed in those items 6 months after the procedure (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The long-term efficacy of bladder pressure expansion with alkaline lidocaine,heparin and dexamethasone the anesthesia in the treatment of ketamine associated cystitis is good.The outcome is stable,and no obvious complications.

Objective To investigate the curative effect of low-temperature plasma-assisted uvulopalatopharyngoplasty(UP-PP)in the patients with positional and non-positional obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Methods Twenty-six patients with OSAHS diagnosed by polysomnography monitoring receiving the low-temperature plasma-assisted UPPP in our hospital from January 2014 to December 2015 were selected and divided into the positional OSAHS group(PPs) and non-positional OSAHS group(NPPs) according to the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) under different sleep positional status.The AHI change before and after operation and operation effective rate were compared between the two groups.Results Theoverall AHI,supine position AHI and lateral position AHI in the PPs group all were lower than those in the NPPs group(P＜0.05),moreover the blood oxygen related indexes were higher than those in the NPPs group(P＜0.05).The overall surgical effective rate in the OSAHS patients was 73.08％ (19/26),in which the surgical effective rate was 100％ (7/7) in the PPs group and 63.16％ (12/19) in the NPPs group,the difference between the two groups had no statistical significance(P=0.13).The postoperative total AHI,supine position AHI and lateral position AHI in the two groups were decreased compared with before operation(P＜0.05);the decrease range of lateral position AHI in the NPPs group was significantly higher than that in the supine position AHI[0.96(0.86,1.00)vs.0.53(0.34,0.77),P＜0.01].78.95 ％ (15/19) postoperation patients in the NPPs group converted to PPs.Conclusion Low-temperature plasma-assisted UPPP has some effects on OSAHS patients,in which the benefit of NPPs are more apparent.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of posterior decompression, internal fixation and interlaminar fusion for the treatment of severe osteoporotic vertebral fracture and collapse complicated with spinal canal encroachment. Methods A retrospective study was carried out in 27 cases of severe osteoporotic vertebral fractures complicated with spinal canal encroachment. The patients were treated with posterior decompression, internal fixation and interlaminar fusion during the period from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2014. All patients were given vertebral pedicle screw fixation after pedicle augmentation with bone cement. The pain scores of visual analogue scale(VAS), Oswestry Disability Index(ODI), Cobb angle , thoracolumbar Cobb angle and the recovery of neurological function(estimated by Frankel grading system) of the patients were compared beforeoperation, one week after operation and at the end of follow-up. The incidences of internal fixation failure, adjacent vertebral fracture and bone cement leakage also were recorded. Results The patients were followed up for an average of 27 months. The spinal canal occupation rate caused by fracture fragment of posterior vertebral wall was 27.41%~63.85%, with an average of(43.24 ± 10.61)%. Postoperative VAS pain scores, ODI, Cobb angle and thoracolumbar Cobb angle were statistically different from those before operation (P < 0.05). The correction rate for Cobb angle and thoracolumbar Cobb angle was (63.31 ± 23.47)%, (61.91 ± 17.54)%respectively. At the end of the follow-up, the correction loss rate for Cobb angle and the thoracolumbar Cobb angle was (15.38 ± 39.92)%, (21.79 ± 32.20)% respectively, the difference being insignificant compared with those one week after operation(P>0.05). In respect of Frankel grading of neurological function at the end of the follow-up, 6 cases were in grade D and 19 cases were in grade E, but the differences were insignificant compared with those before operation (P > 0.05). None of the patients had surgical site infection, screw looseness or breakage, or rod breakage during the follow-up period. There were 8 patients with asymptomatic bone cement leakage after operation. Vertebral compression fractures recurred in 5 patients, of which 2 had adjacent vertebral fractures and 3 had non -adjacent segment. Conclusion The therapy of posterior decompression, internal fixation and interlaminar fusion is effective for the treatment of severe osteoporotic vertebral fracture and collapse complicated with spinal canal encroachment by obviously relieving pain, improving the physiological function of the spine and stabilizing the spine.
