Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis misdiagnosed as renal cancer: a case report and literature review / 南方医科大学学报

A 51-year-old male patient was presented to our hospital for inspection of right renal space-occupying lesions. CT revealed soft tissue density in the right renal pelvis and renal pelvis ureter transitional crumb, for which a clinical diagnosis of right renal cancer was made. After laparoscopic radical resection of the right kidney, pathological examination supported the diagnosis of idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis. With an unclear pathogenesis, idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis presents with atypical clinical manifestations but shows specific features in imaging examination. Its treatment is individualized according to the specific condition for which conservative medical or surgical treatment can be considered. Retroperitoneal fibrosis has a low incidence and a high misdiagnosis rate, and imaging examinations remain currently the primary modality for diagnosis with specific findings.

Objective To study the expression of enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) gene in transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder celt lines, carcinoma tissues and normal bladder tis-sues and to evaluate the roles of EZH2 in the development and progression of bladder carcinoma. Methods RT-PCR, Western-blot and immunocytochemistry were used to analyze the expression of EZH2 of the bladder cell lines (T24, EJ, MGH-U1, BIU-87). The prostate cancer cell line PC-3M was used as an EZH2-positive cell line. EZH2 gene expressions in 45 cases of bladder carcinoma and 12 cases of normal bladder mueosa were detected by RT-PCR. Of cancer cases, 31 were superficial tumors and 14 were invasive tumors; 13 were G1, 21 were G2 and 11 were G3. Results EZH2 was detected in the 4 TCC cell lines. The EZH2 expression rate of TCC (82.2%) was significantly higher than that of normal bladder tissues (8.3%, P<0.05). The expression rate in superficial tumors was 74.2% and in invasive tumors was 100.0%, but there was no significant difference (P>0.05). The expression rates increased with tumor cell grade increase, but there was no significant difference (P> 0.05). Conclusions EZH2 could play an important role in the development and progression of blad-der carcinoma. It could be used as a potential gene therapy target of bladder cancer.

Vascular prosthesis implantation for treatment of isolated lilac artery aneurysm A 33-case report / 中国组织工程研究

A total of 33 patients with isolated lilac artery aneurysms, 19 males and 14 females, who received treatment between January 1997 and June 2007, were retrospectively analyzed. Among these patients, 29 suffered from unilateral iliac artery aneurysm and 4 from bilateral iliac artery aneurysm. Under general anesthesia, all patients were subjected to aneurysmectomy, followed by vascular prosthesis implantation for vascular reconstruction. Results revealed that among 4 cases of bilateral iliac artery aneurysm, there was 1 case who was subjected to aorta-bilateral femoral artery vascular prosthesis implantation, and there were 3 cases who underwent aorta-bilateral lilac artery vascular prosthesis implantation; among 29 cases of unilateral lilac artery aneurysm, there was 1 case receiving aorta-common lilac artery vascular prosthesis implantation, 3 cases undergoing iliac-femoral artery vascular prosthesis implantation, 21 cases subjected to common-external iliac artery vascular prosthesis implantation, and 4 cases undertaking common -common lilac artery bypass. Color Doppler ultrasonic examination, spiral CT angiography, or digital subtraction arteriography was performed 3, 6 months, 1, 3, 5, 8, and 10 years after surgery. The mean follow-up time was 5 years. Three cases died of acute cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction, and traffic accident 3, 6, and 2 years after surgery, respectively. The remaining cases well survived as determined by no recurred Uiac artery aneurysm, anastomotic stoma stenosis or lower limb ischemia found. These results indicated that aneurysmectomy and subsequent vascular prosthesis implantation remained a good and primary means for treatment of isolated iliac artery aneurysm under the present medical condition.

Minimally invasive treatment for Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome / 中国微创外科杂志

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of minimally invasive treatment (sclerosing therapy, intravascular intervention, laser coagulation, etc) for Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (K-TS). Methods A total of 32 patients with K-TS were treated in this hospital from February 1989 to November 2004. Vascular embolization was used in patients with abnormal arteriovenous fistula or abnormal collateral arterial pathway. The insufficient valves of the deep veins were minimally invasively repaired. Laser coagulation was utilized for treating bulky varicosities. For angiomas and engorged venous plexus of the limbs, the sclerosing agent was injected. Results Varicosis, including reticular venous dilation, subsided completely. Angiography revealed an immediate disappearance of arteriovenous fistula and abnormal blood supply of the femur. The enlargement of involved limbs was diminished gradually. The angioma became completely sclerous, disappeared or decreased in size, without dwindling under pressure. In patients with venous valve reconstruction, Doppler ultrasonography showed no reflux. Follow-up for 1~7 years (mean, years) in all the 32 patients found no recurrence. Conclusions Minimally invasive treatment, including intravascular intervention, laser coagulation, sclerosing agent injection, mini-incision valve repair and so on, is effective for the management of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome.
