目的 探讨肝细胞腺瘤的诊断与外科治疗方法。方法 对5例肝细胞腺瘤患者进行回顾性分析。结果 术前行B超检查4例,行CT检查2例及行MRI检查2例均未确诊。术前4例成人均误诊为原发性肝癌; 1例幼儿误诊为肝母细胞瘤。全部病例均做了肝叶或联合肝段切除术。结论 成人肝细胞腺瘤须与原发性肝癌相鉴别; 幼儿肝细胞腺瘤须与肝母细胞瘤相鉴别。肝细胞腺瘤误诊原因与其发病率低,缺乏典型的临床表现、生化检查指标和影像学特征有关。肝叶或联合肝段切除是肝细胞腺瘤的主要外科治疗方法。
Thirteen cases of pancreatic cyst were analysed,including 6 cases of retention cyst,4 cases of cystadenoma and 3 cases of cystadenocarcinoma.The disease has no speciality in clinical symptoms ultrasonography and CT have high validity in locating the cyst,but no value in determing its pathological nature.Multiple compartment of the cyst were often seen.Serous fluid and flat epithelial cell existed mainly in retention cyst.Mucinous fluid and cubic/column epithelial cells were always seen in cystadenoma and cystadenocarcinoma.Cystectomy is an appropriate operation for the disease.
ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical manifestations, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN-1) so as to improve the understanding of MEN-1.MethodThe clinical data of 1 case of MEN-1 with new mutated gene in the Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital of Medical College of Qingdao University (our hospital) were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsThe patient was a 73-year-old woman, who was admitted to our hospital because of “abdominal pain, diarrhea” for 4 d. After discussion by a multidisciplinary team, MRI of pancreatic, adrenal and pituitary, and endoscopy examinations were performed to further identify the cause of diarrhea. Meanwhile, MEN-1 gene was detected in the peripheral blood of the patient and her relatives, and the result showed that the proband and his daughter had a cytosine deletion at c.1401 in exon 10 of MEN-1 gene, which resulted in frame shift mutation of p.e468r fs, it was confirmed as MEN-1. After 5 d of conservative treatment of the disease, the patient’s family requested discharge and the patient died half a month after discharge.ConclusionsMEN-1 is a rare autosomal dominant inheritable disease, with diverse clinical manifestations and easy misdiagnosis. Therefore, it is necessary to be alert to abnormal indicators in the glands associated with MEN-1, so as to achieve early diagnosis and treatment.
Objective To analyze the central visual fields and the ocular fundus changes of both eyes of patients with pituitary adenoma.Methods A total of 70 cases of pituitary adenoma received the examination of static central visual fields of all-liminal values by Humphrey instruments 750 cycloscope and the fundus exams by Topcon TRC-50X fundus photography before operations. Results There were 64.3% patients with decreased visual acuities, 80.7% with the defect of visual field, and 46 .4% with fundus changes. The decrease of the visual acuity was the first diagnostic symptom in 45.7% patients, among whom 28.6% were misdiagnosed as ocular diseases.Conclusions The misdiagnosed cause is that the first diagnostic symptom is the decrease of visual acuity without defect of visual field accompanied by ocular diseases. To avoid the misdiagnosis and the omitter of pituitary adenoma, general examination of visual field should be carried out in the patients with decreased visual acuity and optic atrophy with unknown reason in the clinical diagnosis of ophthalmology.

Objective To compare the different surgical treatment methods of thymoma combined with myasthenia gravis (MG), and to discuss the clinical effectiveness of thoracoscopic combined mediastinoscopic extended thymectomy. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 58 patients of thymoma combined with myasthenia gravis in Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital between 2011 and 2016 year. According to the operation method, the patients were divided into three groups including a group A for thoracoscopic thymectomy (n=32), a group B for thoracoscopic combined mediastinoscopic thymectomy (n=15), and a group C for transsternal thymectomy (n=11). The clinical effects were observed and compared. Results In the group A and the group B, the bleeding volume, postoperative hospital stay and other complications were significantly lower than those in the group C with statistical differences (P<0.05). The incidence of myasthenic crisis in the group B (6.7%) was less than that in the group C (36.4 %), but the difference was not statistically different (P=0.058). The operation time of the three groups was 122.0 ± 39.4 min, 130.3 ± 42.5 min, and 142.3 ± 40.8 min respectively with no statistical difference between the two groups (P>0.05). The rate of dissection grade in the group B (grade 1, 12 patients, 80%) was significantly greater than that in the group A (grade 1, 14 patients, 43.8%,P<0.05). The effective rate of the group A, the group B, the group C was 84.4%, 93.3% and 90.9%, respectively with no statistical difference between groups (P>0.05). Conclusion The thoracoscopy combined mediastinoscopic thymectomy not only has the advantages of less trauma, quicker recovery and fewer complications, but also can more thoroughly clean the thymus and adipose tissue, which can achieve the same therapeutic effect as the transsternal thymectomy.
Objective To investigate clinical features of accidental parathyroid adenoma (APTA) and to explore diagnosis and treatment strategies of APTA. Methods From February 2009 to December 2016, the patients who would receive the thyroid surgery and were accidentally found the parathyroid adenoma by preoperative examination in the Department of Thyroid & Parathyroid Surgery, West China Hospital of Sichuan University were enrolled in the research. The clinical characteristics, surgical procedure, results of postoperative follow-up were analyzed retrospectively, and which were compared between the patients with APTA and the other patients diagnosed as primary parathyroid adenoma or received thyroid surgery (1 : 4 chosen randomly) in the same period. Results From February 2009 to December 2016, the patients who treated with thyroid surgery and were diagnosed as the primary parathyroid adenoma in our center were 5 881 and 251 respectively. Twenty-six patients with APTA were found in this research. The incidence rate of APTA was 0.44% (26/5 881), accounted for 10.4% (26/251) of the primary parathyroid adenoma. The positive rates of the ultrasound and the parathyroid scintigraphy were 69.2% (18/26) and 72.7% (8/11), respectively. The abnormal rate of the bone mineral density examination was 85.7% (6/7). The preoperative PTH was (38.17±40.69) pmol/L (3.40–181.20 pmol/L), and the serum calcium was (2.73±0.27) mmol/L (2.22–3.23 mmol/L). The number of detected parathyroid adenoma was 29, which were 55.2% (16/29) in the right-lower, 6.9% (2/29) in the right-upper, 27.6% (8/29) in the left-lower, and 10.3% (3/29) in the left-upper location. The rate of single parathyroid adenoma was 88.5% (23/26) and the maximum diameter of parathyroid adenoma was (21.72±9.65) mm. There was 13 cases (44.8%) of the A1 type and 16 cases (55.2%) of the B1 type in these 29 parathyroid adenomas. The rates of the recurrence, postoperative transient hypoparathyroidism, and permanent hypoparathyroidism were 7.7% (2/26), 30.8% (8/26), and 3.8% (1/26), respectively. Additionally, the preoperative PTH and serum calcium levels of the patients with APTA were significantly lower as compared with the primary parathyroid adenoma (P<0.001,P<0.001), which were significantly higher as compared with those of the patients received thyroid surgery without APTA in the same period (P=0.001, P<0.001). Conclusions APTA is a specific type of asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism. Examinations for PTH and serum calcium levels before thyroid surgery are important for finding APTA. For the patients with APTA, it is safe and effective to carry out exploratory parathyroidectomy with thyroid surgery at the same time.
Anterior mediastinal inflammatory myofibroblastoma is a rare tumor with insidious onset and easy misdiagnosis. In this report, we presented a case of anterior mediastinal inflammatory myofibroblastoma with thymoma. The mediastinal tumor was found by physical examination, and the prognosis was good after surgical treatment. For this disease, operation is an effective method for definite diagnosis and treatment, and complete excision can achieve good outcomes.
