ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of Ezrin and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and their correlation to malignant proliferation of colonic adenoma. MethodExpressions of Ezrin,iNOS and nuclear Ki-67 antigen were detected by immunohistochemistry in tubular adenoma (60 cases),villous adenoma(40 cases) and malignant (30 cases ) pleomorphic adenoma. ResultsExpressions of Ezrin,iNOS in tubular adenoma [58.3％ (35/60), 50.0％ (30/60)], villous adenoma [72.5％ (29/40), 70.00(28/40)]and malignant pleomorphic adenoma [96.7％(29/30),93.3％(28/30)]were gradually increased ( X2 = 11.600,P = 0.005; X2 = 8.451, P = 0.015 ). There was a significant positive correlation between the expression of Ezrin and iNOS (r = 0.765, P ＜ 0.01 ). Nuclear Ki-67 antigen proliferation index was increased with the increasing of Ezrin and iNOS expressions. ConclusionOverexpression of Ezrin and iNOS may promote proliferation and malignant transformation of colonic adenoma.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical pathological features, treatment and prognosis of umbilical metastases of colorectal carcinoma. Methods From January 2000 to September 2010, 10 umbilical metastases of colorectal carcinoma cases were admitted. The clinical features were reviewed. Results Four radical resection of colon cancer and resection of the umbilical plexus metastases cases with chemotherapeutic intraperitoneal perfusion lived 9,11,14 and 18 months respectively, 1 ileum-transverse colon anastomosis case with chemotherapeutic intraperitoneal perfusion lived six months, 2 patients with systemic widely transfer and umbilical transfer with pure venous chemotherapy lived 3, 3.5 months respectively, 3 colon intra-operative cases with venous chemotherapy lived 5 ,5. 5 and 7 months respectively. Conclusion Surgical resection of the primary focal and periumbilical metastases can prolong survival time with adjunctive therapy.
