ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the misdiagnosis in extraovarian peritoneal carcinoma(EOPC). Methods The clinical manifestation, blood tumor marker, imaging examination, laparotomy, pathology, treatment and prognosis of 19 EOPC patients were retrospectively analyzed. Results The clinical symptoms were abdominal distention, abdominal pain and swelling. 17 cases were tested for blood CA-125 with 15 at abnormaly high level, and in 4 cases ascites was CA-125 positive ( ＞ 10 KU/L). Tumor cells were detected in the ascites in 12 cases. Three cases were misdiagnosed as of uterine origin, 13 cases misdiagnosed as adnexal tumor, 1 case was misdiagnosed as bladder and intestinal tumor. Only 2 cases were correctly diagnosed before the operation. All of the cases were pathologically proved as peritoneal carcinoma. The five-year survival rate was only 20 percent. Conclusions Abdominal distention and pain with unknown causes were the primary manifestations of EOPC, elaborate physical examination sometimes may provide with important information. The significant elevation of serum CA-125 and the ascites cytology may be helpul for the differential diagnosis of PPC. CT scan is valuable for the diagnosis of EOPC.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the feature and the safety of birth process of induced labor by Propess.Methods The 380 cases of vaginal delivery women in our hospital between Sep.2006 to Dec.2007 who, were primigravida,term delivery,singleton gestation,vertex presentations and no standing contraindication, was considered as study group. The other 380 cases of women of labor spontaneous or intravenous oxyvenous in the same condition was considered as control group.The birth process,the amount of bleeding,the number of urine retention,and the prognosis of neonate were compared between the two group.Results The active phase and the second stage was abbreviated in the study group,(P0.05).Conclusion Propess was more effective and safe in shortening the active phase, the secona stage and reducing complications.
