Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic resection of infratemporal fossa mass and to determine the indications for surgery.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted, including a total of 29 patients who underwent endoscopic surgery to treat infratemporal fossa mass in the Department of Rhinology of Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, from April 2008 to December 2021. Ten males and 19 females were included in the study, with age of (46.5±13.7) years. Pre-and post-operative sinus CT, sinus or nasopharyngeal enhanced MRI were evaluated, respectively. The main outcome measurements were the total resection of mass and the incidence of surgery-related complications.Results:Among the 29 cases of infratemporal fossa mass, 22 were schwannomas, 3 were cysts, 2 were neurofibromas, 1 was pleomorphic adenoma and 1 was basal cell adenoma. Preoperative imaging showed well-defined lesion boundaries, and postoperative pathology confirmed the benign nature of all cases. The endoscopic transnasal approach was used in 28 patients, while the combination of the transnasal approach and the transoral approach was used in 1 patient. Complete tumor removal was achieved in all cases with a 100% resection rate. The average follow-up time was 38 months (7-168 months), and no tumor recurrence was observed.Conclusions:The Endoscopic transnasal approach is a safe and effective surgical approach for the treatment of benign tumors or masses in the infratemporal fossa.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy of endoscopic surgery for frontal sinus meningoencephalocele and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, and to explore endoscopic surgical strategy.Methods:A total of 35 patients with frontal sinus meningoencephalocele and CSF leaks who underwent endoscopic transnasal surgery at Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University between May 2007 and December 2023 were enrolled in this retrospective case series, including 29 males and 6 females, with the age of (35.23±15.76) years. High-resolution sinus CT and magnetic resonance cisternography were undertaken before surgery. The primary outcome measure was the success rate of endoscopic surgical repair. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 27 and GraphPad Prism 8 software.Results:Of the 35 cases, 21 (60.0%) were traumatic, and 14 (40.0%) were non-traumatic. The most common defect was in the posterior frontal sinus wall (24 cases, 68.6%), with a defect size of (10.4±4.8) mm 2. Twenty-six cases (74.3%) underwent endoscopic transnasal Draf Ⅱa-Ⅲ frontal sinusotomy, and 9 cases (25.7%) underwent endoscopic transnasal Darf Ⅱb-Ⅲ frontal sinusotomy combined with frontal trephination. The average follow-up time was (84.72±57.42) months. The success rate of one-time endoscopic repair was 97.1% (34/35). One patient required a second procedure, resulting in an overall success rate of 100%. Thirty-three patients had a widely patent frontal sinus ostium postoperatively, while two experienced stenosis. Conclusions:Endoscopic surgery is effective for treating frontal meningoencephalocele and CSF leaks while preserving frontal sinus drainage. Combined frontal trephination is recommended for defects that are difficult to repair using the conventional transnasal approach.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of bone marrow minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring by multi-parameter flow cytometry (FCM) regularly after the first complete remission (CR1) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Methods A total of 63 paitents with AML who had got CR1 after chemotherapy were regularly monitored for MRD in bone marrow by FCM,and MRD ≥ 10-4 was positive.According to the latest standards of National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) for disease risks,they were categorized into three groups:better risk group (20 cases),intermediate risk group (27 cases) and poor risk group (16 cases).The probability of continuous complete remission (CCR) was calculated by KaplanMeier formula,and the statistical difference between MRD positivc and MRD negative CCR probabilities was evaluated by log-rank test.Results The positive rates of MRD were 20%(4/20),30%(8/27) and 10/16 in better risk group,intermediate risk group and poor risk group respectively.The difference between better risk group and intermediate risk group had no statistical significance (P=0.454),and the difference between poor risk group and intermediate risk group had statistical significance (P =0.035).Twenty-two cases showed positive MRD,and 41 cases showed negative MRD.The probability of CCR at 24 and 36 months in MRD positive patients were 18% (4/22),18% (4/22),in MRD negative patients were 83% (34/41),80% (33/41),and there were significant differences (P < 0.01).Conclusions The dynamic detection of MRD by FCM can be used to evaluate the therapeutic effect and prognosis of AML.MRD monitoring has important clinical significance and can help to adjust the intensity of chemotherapy,carry out individualized treatment,predict prognosis,and choose appropriate therapy.

OBJECTIVE:
To review endonasal endoscopic surgeries aided by Fusion image guided system, and to explore the application value of Fusion image guided system in endonasal endoscopic surgeries.
METHOD:
Retrospective research. Sixty cases of endonasal endoscopic surgeries aided by Fusion image guided system were analysed including chronic rhinosinusitis with polyp (n = 10), fungus sinusitis (n = 5), endoscopic optic nerve decompression (n = 16), inverted papilloma of the paranasal sinus (n = 9), ossifying fibroma of sphenoid bone (n = 1), malignance of the paranasal sinus (n = 9), cerebrospinal fluid leak (n = 5), hemangioma of orbital apex (n = 2) and orbital reconstruction (n = 3).
RESULT:
Sixty cases of endonasal endoscopic surgeries completed successfully without any complications. Fusion image guided system can help to identify the ostium of paranasal sinus, lamina papyracea and skull base. Fused CT-CTA images, or fused MR-MRA images can help to localize the optic nerve or internal carotid arteiy . Fused CT-MR images can help to detect the range of the tumor. It spent (7.13 ± 1.358) minutes for image guided system to do preoperative preparation and the surgical navigation accuracy reached less than 1mm after proficient. There was no device localization problem because of block or head set loosed.
CONCLUSION
Fusion image guided system make endonasal endoscopic surgery to be a true microinvasive and exact surgery. It spends less preoperative preparation time, has high surgical navigation accuracy, improves the surgical safety and reduces the surgical complications.
