Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of gastric stromal tumor. Methods Clinical data of 217 patients with gastric stromal tumor from October 2007 to July 2011 were analyzed. Results The main clinical manifestation were abdominal pain, abdominal distension, bloody stools, abdominal mass, and so on. The tumour located at cardiac part, fundus of stomach, body of stomach, and pylorus part was 24 cases (11.0%), 103 cases (47.5%), 59 cases (27.2%), and 31 cases (14.3%), respectively. All the 217 patients underwent endoscopic or surgical resection and diagnosed by pathology and immunohistochemistry. The patients of high-low risk, low risk, intermediate risk, and high risk was 56 cases (25.8%), 67 cases (30.9%), 41 cases (18.9%), and 53 cases (24.4%), respectively. One hundred and forty patients were followed-up for 7-52 months (average 35 months). Thirty-five patients of high risk were investigated about the drug treatment after the first operation:19 cases were treated by using imatinib (tumor progressed in 2 cases) and 16 patients were not (tumor progressed in 9 patients). The rate of progression of patients treated by imatinib was significantly lower than another group (χ2=8.426, P=0.004). In 11 patients with tumor progressed, tumor recurrnce in 4 cases, tumor recurrence with diffused abdominal cavity metastasis in 1 case, tumor metastasized to humerus in 1 case, metastasized to liver and abdominal cavity in 1 case, and metastasized to liver in 4 cases. Conclusions Gastric stormal tumor is lack of specific clinical manifestations. Complete excision of the tumor is the main therapy method, and imatinib can improve prognosis.

Hydroxychloroquine is widely used in a variety of autoimmune diseases. However, long-term use of hydroxychloroquine can cause severe retinopathy, which has a complex pathogenic mechanism and diverse clinical manifestations, mainly manifested as photoreceptor and retinal pigment epithelial damage and irreversible vision loss. Identifying damage before retinitis pigment epithelium lesions preserve central vision, so early detection is crucial to slow disease progression and reduce vision loss. The development of multimodal imaging technology and the issuance of the latest treatment guidelines provide a powerful tool for the early screening and treatment of hydroxychloroquine retinopathy. Proficient in the latest guidelines for the treatment of hydroxychloroquine can better guide clinicians to do a good job in disease screening and management, recommend risks, safe dosages and appropriate screening procedures to patients and strengthen the prevention of hydroxychloroquine retinopathy, which will help save the vision of more patients and reduce the waste of medical resources.
Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations, CT and prognosis of pontine hemorrhage. Methods Analyze the summarized clinical data of 21 patients with pontine hemorrhage retrospectively. Results The period of 46-70 years old was vulnerable to pontine hemorrhage,and hypertension was the major risky factor of it. The death rate of pontine hemorrhage inceases when the bleeding beyond 5 ml. Nine of the 21 patients survived. Conclution The prognosis was highly related to the bleeding amount, the position of bleeding and the complication.
ObjectiveTo re-understand the nerve sheath tumors of the breast, to improve its diagnosis and cure rate.MethodSearched the relevant literatures of nerve sheath tumors of the breast, to analyze and summarize the origin, etiology, clinical manifestations, imaging characteristics, pathological characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of this disease.ResultsNerve sheath tumors of the breast was a very rare disease, which originated in the neuromembrane Snowwang cells. its specific cause was unknown and clinical manifestations were not specific, and other breast diseases were difficult to identify, such as leaf ybrilloma, mammary vascular epidermal cytoma, breast fibroids, and so on. Imaging data could provide some reference value, but the gold standard relied on pathology and immunohistochemical examination. Surgery could cure benign nerve sheath tumors of the breast, but there was a possibility of malignant changes that required follow-up after surgery. Malignant neuroblastoma was mainly surgically removed, supplemented by chemotherapy, which could effectively prevent the recurrence of tumor and distant metastasis. The prevention of nerve sheath tumors of the breast could be referred to breast cancer screening.ConclusionsDuring clinical practice, we need to understand the diagnosis and treatment of nerve sheath tumors of the breast to achieve early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment, as well as improve the diagnosis rate and cure rate of the disease, in order to protect women’s physical and mental health.
目的 分析主动脉夹层的临床及病理特点。 方法 回顾性分析1998年1月-2011年10月26例主动脉夹层致死的临床及法医尸检病理资料,对其发病、死亡经过、诊断、死因进行总结。 结果 26例主动脉夹层平均发病年龄为39.2岁,男女比例为3.3︰1;26例中6例无临床诊断,17例误诊,3例疑似诊断。26例主动脉夹层中,夹层破裂致心包填塞死亡20例,夹层破裂致失血性休克死亡5例,主动脉夹层未破裂1例系心衰致死;26例按DeBakey分类标准9例为Ⅰ型,14例为Ⅱ型,3例为Ⅲ型。 结论 临床应警惕主动脉夹层的特殊临床表现并采取必要的辅助检查,有助于主动脉夹层的诊治和减少医疗纠纷的发生。
Objective To summarize the research progress in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCNs). Method The guidelines and literatures related to the diagnosis and treatment of PCNs were collected and reviewed. Results At present, there was still no clear method to distinguish the types of PCNs and their benign and malignant, and there was still a dispute between domestic and foreign guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of PCNs. Conclusion Clinical researchers still need to carry out more research, provide higher quality evidence, resolve the disputes existing in different guidelines, standardize the diagnosis and treatment process of PCNs, thus, PCNs can be identified early, diagnosed accurately and intervened in time.
ObjectiveTo review the clinical research progress of spinal epidural lipomatosis (SEL). Methods The clinical studies on SEL at home and abroad in recent years were extensively reviewed, and the pathogenesis, clinical and imaging manifestations, and treatment status of SEL were summarized and analyzed. ResultsSEL is a disease characterized by compression of the spinal cord and nerve roots due to abnormal accumulation of epidural adipose tissue in the spinal canal. Its prevalence and diagnosis rate are low and the pathogenesis is not fully understood. MRI is the most sensitive and specific diagnostic test for SEL. Surgical decompression and removal of excess adipose tissue are the only options for patients with acute SEL or those who have failed conservative management, and conservative management should be considered for other patients. ConclusionSEL is a rare disease and related research still needs to be improved. In the future, high-quality, multi-center and large-sample studies will be of great significance for evaluating the choice of treatment methods and effectiveness of SEL patients.
