Objective: To explore the diagnosis, surgical management and outcome of jugular foramen chondrosarcoma (CSA). Methods: Fifteen patients with jugular foramen CSA hospitalized in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery of Chinese PLA General Hospital from December 2002 to February 2020 were retrospectively collected,of whom 2 were male and 13 were female, aging from 22 to 61 years old. The clinical symptoms and signs, imaging features, differential diagnosis, surgical approaches, function of facial nerve and cranial nerves IX to XII, and surgical outcomes were analyzed. Results: Patients with jugular foramen CSA mainly presented with facial paralysis, hearing loss, hoarseness, cough, tinnitus and local mass. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) could provide important information for diagnosis. CT showed irregular destruction on bone margin of the jugular foramen. MR demonstrated iso or hypointense on T1WI, hyperintense on T2WI and heterogeneous contrast-enhancement. Surgical approaches were chosen upon the sizes and scopes of the tumors. Inferior temporal fossa A approach was adopted in 12 cases, inferior temporal fossa B approach in 2 cases and mastoid combined parotid approach in 1 case. Five patients with facial nerve involved received great auricular nerve graft. The House Brackmann (H-B) grading scale was used to evaluate the facial nerve function. Preoperative facial nerve function ranked grade Ⅴ in 4 cases and grade Ⅵ in 1 case. Postoperative facial nerve function improved to grade Ⅲ in 2 cases and grade Ⅵ in 3 cases. Five patients presented with cranial nerves Ⅸ and Ⅹ palsies. Hoarseness and cough of 2 cases improved after operation, while the other 3 cases did not. All the patients were diagnosed CSA by histopathology and immunohistochemistry, with immunohistochemical staining showing vimentin and S-100 positive, but cytokeratin negative in tumor cells. All patients survived during 28 to 234 months' follow-up. Two patients suffered from tumor recurrence 7 years after surgery and received revision surgery. No complications such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage and intracranial infection occurred after operation. Conclusions: Jugular foramen CSA lacks characteristic symptoms or signs. Imaging is helpful to differential diagnosis. Surgery is the primary treatment of jugular foramen CSA. Patients with facial paralysis should receive surgery in time as to restore the facial nerve. Long-term follow-up is necessary after surgery in case of recurrence.

Objective:To examine the infection of the enterovirus and human herpes virus in children with suspected encephalitis.Methods:A total number of 365 suspected encephalitis cases were included in this study from August 2017 to December 2019 in Hunan Children′s Hospital. The clinical samples, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), serum, sputum, stool and urine were collected and preserved at-80 ℃condition. The enterovirus (EV) and human herpesvirus (HHV) were examined by a one-step nested reverse transcription PCR(RT-PCR) and a real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (qPCR), respectively. The positive rate of the two viruses in clinical specimens of children with suspected encephalitis was examined. Among all cases, 132 cases were diagnosed with EV encephalitis or HHV encephalitis.Results:the EV encephalitis were identified in 20.5% (75/365) children with suspected viral encephalitis; whereas HHV encephalitis infection was identified as 15.6% (57/365). Among the 75 cases of EV encephalitis, echo 6 was the main sub-type of these diseases 52.0% (39/75) and others were EV71 (30.7%, 23/75), echo11 (6.7%, 5/75), Coxsackie virus A group 6(CA6, 4.0%, 3/75), echo30 (1.3%, 1/75), echo9 (1.3%, 1/75), echo4 (1.3%, 1/75),Coxsackie virus B group 1(CB1, 1.3%, 1/75))and poliovirus(1.3%, 1/75).Human herpes virus type 6 (HHV6) was the most common pathogen in 57 cases of HHV encephalitis, accounting for 35.1% (20/57).The other pathogens were Cytomegalovirus (CMV, 31.6%, 18/57), Epstein-Barr virus (8.8%, 7/57), Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV1, 10.5%, 6/57), HSV2 (8.8%, 5/57), and Varicella zoster virus (VZV, 1.8%, 1/57) .The virus in CSF detected significantly earlier than that in serum after onset. Virus could be detected in CSF 2-7 days after onset,but 7-26 days in serum. Conclusions:This study uses nested PCR and qPCR to detect pathogens in clinical specimens of children. This not only expands our understanding of the clinical examination and diagnosis of viral encephalitis in children, but also promotes the method of this study to benefit more children.

Objective:To observe the anti-inflammatory effect and its mechanism of Euphorbiae Ebarcteolatae Radix bacteriostasis ointment in eczema mice induced by 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB). Method:A total of 40 ICR adult mice were randomly divided into control group，model group，hydrocortisone Butyrate cream group (0.09g·kg^-1) and Euphorbiae Ebarcteolatae Radix bacteriostasis ointment group (0.09 g·kg^-1), with 10 mice in each group. Except for the normal group, other groups were given DNCB to induce the chronic eczema model. Twenty-four hours after DNCB stimulation, they were given the corresponding drugs through auricle and back, twice a day for 10 days. After drug intervention, efforts were made to measure the change of thickness and weight of the middle ear, assess the allergic effect, and calculate the spleen index of the mice. Optical microscope was used to observe the pathological changes in ear tissues of mice. And the levels of serum interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-2 (IL-2), interleukin-4 (IL-4) in mice were determined by multiplex immunoassay. Result:Compared with control group, the thickness and weight of right ears, score of allergic effect, spleen index and the levels of IL-2 and IL-4 in serum showed significant increases in model group (P<0.05，P<0.01). The histopathology injuries of ear were aggravated. Compared with model control group, Euphorbiae Ebarcteolatae Radix bacteriostasis ointment could reduce ear thickness and score of allergic effect, regulate the spleen index, decrease the inflammation factor in serum such as IL-2 and IL-4 (P<0.05，P<0.01), and improve ear histopathology injuries. Conclusion:Euphorbiae Ebarcteolatae Radix bacteriostasis ointment may have a good effect on eczema.
