Objective:This article explores the diagnosis and treatment of a special type of laryngeal foreign body with granuloma in children, providing a clinical reference for standardized diagnosis and treatment. Methods:This article retrospectively analyzes one case admitted to our department and five other cases reported in relevant literature involving a special type of laryngeal foreign body with granuloma in children. It summarizes the clinical characteristics of this disease and explores its diagnosis and treatment. Results:①A total of 6 cases were misdiagnosed and had a long course of illness. Five cases had no clear history of foreign body at the first visit. One case had foreign body history but no foreign body was found. ②The clinical symptoms were diverse, which could be hoarseness, cough, wheezing, dyspnea, or no symptoms. ③A total of 3 cases were diagnosed by laryngoscopy, and 3 cases were diagnosed by laryngoscopy and imaging examination. ④Foreign bodies that were not wrapped in granulomas, were removed first and then the granulomas were treated; foreign bodies wrapped in granulomas were removed after the removal of granulomas. Conclusion:A special type of laryngeal foreign body with granuloma may lack of accurate foreign body history, resulting in long-term retention of foreign bodies, leading to granuloma formation and misdiagnosis. Electronic laryngoscopy combined with CT examination contribute to early diagnosis. Low temperature plasma under endoscope and anesthetic laryngoscope is conducive to the exposure and precise removal of foreign bodies and avoids tracheotomy to a certain extent.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of integrated 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) for suspected recurrence of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) with non-disseminated lesions. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of recurrent EOC patients who underwent secondary cytoreduction from January 2000 to December 2013. A total of 134 patients underwent secondary cytoreduction after imaging with either 18F-FDG-PET/CT or contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT). RESULTS: In a patient-based analysis of 134 patients, 124 (92.5%) were confirmed to be positive for malignancy. Among 72 patients with suspected non-disseminated recurrence on 18F-FDG-PET/CT, 65 (89.0%) were confirmed to have recurrence, giving 98.5% sensitivity, 87.7% accuracy, and 88.9% positive predictive value (PPV). In the 65 patients with recurrence, residual tumor remained in 14 patients, giving an accuracy of patient selection for secondary cytoreduction of 69.4% (50/72) and it is higher than that of CECT (64.0%). In 169 lesions removed from patients who underwent preoperative 18F-FDG-PET/CT, 135 (79.9%) were confirmed to be positive for malignancy and 124 were accurately detected by 18F-FDG-PET/CT, giving 91.9% sensitivity, 81.1% accuracy, and 85.5% PPV. Foreign body granuloma was found in 33.3% of 21 lesions with false-positive 18F-FDG-PET/CT findings (7/21). The mean preoperative cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) level in false-positive patients was 28.8 U/mL. CONCLUSION: Compared with CECT, 18F-FDG-PET/CT shows higher sensitivity in lesion-based analysis and better accuracy of patient selection for secondary cytoreduction. However, there is still a need for integration of the results of 18F-FDG-PET/CT, CECT, and CA-125 levels to aid treatment planning.

BACKGROUND: The ideal absorbable plating system should provide sufficient rigidity and then be absorbed within a timely manner. The Resorb-X has been recently developed as a plating system with a mixture ratio of 50:50 poly(D, L-lactide). METHODS: We present seven of 121 patients who experienced delayed degradation with this absorbable plate. One hundred twenty-one patients with facial bone fracture underwent surgical treatment from March 2011 to March 2015, and rigid fixation was achieved with the Resorb-X. RESULTS: Of 121 patients, seven (5.8%) developed complications at the surgical sites. Six of 102 cases underwent fixation of the infraorbital rim and one of 73 underwent fixation of the frontozygomatic buttress; the other sites of fixation did not develop delayed degradation. Foreign body granuloma developed at the earliest by postoperative 20 months and at the latest by postoperative 28 months (average, 23.5 months). CONCLUSION: We observed that the use of absorbable plates in incision sites or areas with thin skin can increase the possibility of delayed degradation. When performing surgery in these areas, the normal skin above the fixed location should be covered sufficiently.

“Paraffinoma” is a well-recognized complication of paraffin oil injection into various body parts for an aesthetic purpose. After a variable latency phase, paraffinoma can present as a wide range of clinical symptoms. This paper is a case report of surgical excision of the paraffinoma and subsequent reconstruction of the associated skin defect on bilateral preauricular cheeks, manifesting 50 years after a primary injection.

We report a patient with a wooden foreign body granuloma in the intervertebral disc space being symptomatic 17 years after a paraspinal penetrant trauma. According to the our result of the search for wooden foreign body granulomas, this is the first case suffered from a wooden foreign body granuloma in the intervertebral disc space that reported in the literature. In this report, we emphasized the importance of rigorous examination and follow up in paraspinal wooden penetrant traumas.

Foreign body granulomas can develop after the injection of various cosmetic filling materials into the facial area to flatten wrinkles. Clinically, reactive lesions are easily mistaken for soft-tissue neoplasms or cysts. This report presents a case of foreign body granuloma in a 52-year-old female patient complaining of a painless swelling in the nasolabial region. Both clinical and histological features are described, underscoring the diagnostic role of magnetic resonance imaging findings.
