Clinicopathological features of twenty four active aortitis cases / 中华风湿病学杂志

Objective:To explore the clinicaland pathological characteristics of aortitisin order to improve the understanding of this rare conditionand improve correct diagnostic rate.Methods:Twenty-four cases of active aortitis were identified from a total of 1 838 cases of ascending aorta specimens in the last 6 years at Wuhan Asia General Hospital. Clinical data including medical history, laboratory and imaging data were collected and the treatment with immunosuppressive and hormonal treatment as well as follow-up data were analyzed. Pathological data including gross findings, microscopic features of the aortic valve and aorta were analyzed. Continuous variables were expressed as mean±standard deviation. Frequencies were described as percentages. Results:Among the 24 cases of active aortitis, 1 case was clinically diagnosed as aortitis before operation, 7 cases were suspected aortitis before operation, and the other 16 cases were diagnosed as aortitis after pathological examination. Among those 16 cases, one case was Behcet′s syndrome, 2 cases were infectious aortitis, 3 cases were Takayasu aortitis, and 10 cases were clinically isolated aortitis. None case had aortic stenosis, while 21 cases had aortic valve insufficiency. Eleven cases of aortitis showed coagulation necrosis. In the 5 cases of Behcet′s syndrome, 3 had acute noninfectious endocarditis of aortic valve.Conclusions:Most of the aortitis in this study was found accidentally in pathological examination. All of the clinically isolated aortitiswere misdiagnosed before pathological examination. Most of the patients with aortitis had simple aortic valve insufficiency. Coagulation necrosis is an important clue for the diagnosis of aortitis. Acute noninfectious endocarditis is an important clue for the diagnosis of Behcet′s syndrome.

Animal experimental study on the effects of different levels of amputation on cardiovascular system / 生物医学工程学杂志

Vascular injury resulting from lower limb amputation leads to the redistribution of blood flow and changes in vascular terminal resistance, which can affect the cardiovascular system. However, there was no clear understanding of how different amputation levels affect the cardiovascular system in animal experiments. Therefore, this study established two animal models of above-knee amputation (AKA) and below-knee amputation (BKA) to explore the effects of different amputation levels on the cardiovascular system through blood and histopathological examinations. The results showed that amputation caused pathological changes in the cardiovascular system of animals, including endothelial injury, inflammation, and angiosclerosis. The degree of cardiovascular injury was higher in the AKA group than in the BKA group. This study sheds light on the internal mechanisms of amputation's impact on the cardiovascular system. Based on the amputation level of patients, the findings recommend more comprehensive and targeted monitoring after surgery and necessary interventions to prevent cardiovascular diseases.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and safety of the clinical application of the diagnosis and treatment mode combining rapid frozen pathological examination of prostate biopsy tissue with radical prostatectomy.Methods:Suspected prostate cancer patients with PSA>10 ng/ml and PI-RADS score ≥4 in, Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital from April to September 2021 were collected. The included patients underwent mpMRI/TRUS image fusion-guided transperineal prostate targeted biopsy with 16G biopsy needle, 2-3 needles for biopsy, and rapid frozen pathological examination. Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) was performed immediately for patients with prostate cancer with rapid freezing pathology. For undiagnosed prostate cancer, 18G biopsy needle for prostate targeted + systematic biopsy were used, 18-22 needles for systematic biopsy, and routine pathological examination. The baseline data, frozen pathological results, perioperative conditions, pathological results and follow-up data of all patients were collected.Results:Eleven patients were included in the study, the mean age of the patients was 69.9(66-73) years, the mean BMI was 22.8(19-26) kg/m 2, the mean PSA was 23.2(14.25-32.00), the mean prostate volume was 45(32-52) ml, mean PSAD 0.54(0.33-0.75). PI-RADS score was 4 in 3 cases and 5 in 8 cases; digital rectal examination was positive in 5 cases. All 11 cases underwent rapid freezing and the pathological results showed that: 9 cases were prostate adenocarcinoma, and RALP was performed immediately. The operation time was 111.5(96-126) min, the intraoperative blood loss was 78.9(55-105) ml, and the postoperative extubation time was 4.3(3.5-5.0) days, postoperative hospital stay 5.8(5.0-6.5) days. Postoperative pathology showed that Gleason score 3+ 4=7 in 1 case, 4+ 3=7 in 3 cases, 8 points in 4 cases, and 10 points in 1 case; 3 cases had positive resection margins, and 1 case had seminal vesicle invasion, the average number of dissected lymph nodes was 10.9 (8.5-14.0), and there was no tumor metastasis. Pathological T staging included 2 cases of T 2b stage, 5 cases of T 2c stage, 1 case of T 3a stage, and 1 case of T 3b stage. Two patients were undiagnosed by rapid freezing pathology, of which one was prostate adenocarcinoma with a Gleason score of 4+ 3=7, and then received RALP; the other one was prostate inflammation. 11 patients were followed up; the postoperative follow-up time was 3-7 months, with an average of 5.2 months. Among the 10 patients who underwent RALP, 8 patients recovered urinary continence 2 weeks after surgery, and all recovered within 2 months after surgery. Three patients with positive surgical margins were given regular androgen deprivation therapy in the second week after surgery. PSA did not drop below 0.1 ng/ml in patients with positive margins and seminal vesicle invasion 3 months after surgery. No complications of Clavien grade Ⅰ or higher occurred after operation and during follow-up. Conclusions:For patients with high suspicion of prostate cancer, rapid frozen pathological examination of prostate biopsy tissue is performed. RALP is performed immediately for patients with prostate cancer. The results show that this diagnosis and treatment model could be safe and feasible.

Valor del estudio patológico intraoperatorio de tiroides. Comparación con la punción aspiración preoperatoria y la patología diferida / Value of the intraoperative pathology in thyroid surgery: comparison with preoperative aspiration puncture and deferred pathology

Resumen Para evaluar la utilidad diagnóstica del estudio patológico intraoperatorio (EPI) en cirugía tiroidea se realizó una revisión retrospectiva de sus resultados en 350 pacientes en comparación con la biopsia preoperatoria por punción con aguja fina (PAAF) y el est udio patológico diferido (EPD). Los resultados de la PAAF se clasificaron según el sistema de Bethesda en categoría II (91 casos, 26.0%), III (21 casos, 6.0%), IV (73 casos, 21.9%), V (54 casos, 15.4%) y VI (111 casos, 31.7%). El EPI mostró lesiones benignas en 137 casos (39.1%), malignas en 169 (48.2%), y resultados no definitivos en 44 (12.6 %). El EPD informó patología benigna en 161 casos (46%) y carcinoma en 189 (54%); se encontró carcinoma en 8 pacientes (5.8%) en quienes el EPI había informado lesión benigna y en 12 (27.2%) en quienes había informado no definitivo; 13 de estos 20 casos fueron microcarcinomas incidentales. El EPI no informó ningún falso positivo (especificidad 100%, sensibilidad 89.4%, valor predictivo positivo 100%, valor predictivo negativo 90.0%, exactitud 94.2%). Los resultados de malignidad con EPI y EPD, según categorías de Bethesda fueron respectivamente: II 3 (3.3%) y 7 (7.7%); III 8 (38.1%) y 10 (47.6%); IV 3 (4.1%) y 10 (13.7%); V 47 (87.0%) y 52 (96.3%); VI 108 (97.3%) y 110 (99.1%). El EPI no dio información adicional a la biopsia por PAAF en la mayoría de los casos ni detectó microcarcinomas en otros, por lo que no parece justificado indicarlo rutinariamente.

Abstract To evaluate the usefulness of intraoperative pathology (IP) in thyroid surgery, a retrospective review of its results in 350 patients was performed in comparison with the results of the preoperative fine-needle biopsy (FNB) and the surgical pathology report (SPR). The FNB was reported according to the Bethesda system as type II in 91 cases (26.0%), type III in 21 (6.0%), type IV in 73 (21.9%), type V in 54 (15.4%), and type VI in 111 (31.7%). The IP showed benign lesions in 137 cases (39.1%), malignancy in 169 (48.2%), and inconclusive results in 44 (12.6%). The SPR results were benign pathology in 161 cases (46%) and carcinoma in 189 (54%); carcinoma was found in 8 patients (5.8%) in whom the IP had reported benignity, and in 12 (27.2%) with IP inconclusive results; 13 of those 20 cases were incidental microcarcinomas. The IP did not report any false positive result (specificity 100 %, sensitivity 89.4%, positive predictive value 100%, negative predictive value 90.0%, and accuracy 94.2%). When discriminated by Bethesda types, the malignant lesions detected by IP and SPR were, respectively: II 3 (3.3%) and 7 (7.70%); III 8 (38.1%) and 10 (47.6%); IV 3 (4.1%) and 10 (13.7%); V 47 (87.0%) and 52 (96.3%); VI 108 (97.3%) and 110 (99.1%). In most cases, the IP did not provide additional information to the FNB report nor did it detect microcarcinomas in others, so it does not seem justified to perform it routinely.

Application of modified closed biopsy in rabbit model of VX2 transplanted bone tumor / 解放军医学杂志

Objective To explore the application value of modified closed biopsy technique in puncture biopsy of rabbit model of VX2 transplanted bone tumor. Methods VX2 tumor tissue was cut from rabbit with VX2 tumor and transplanted into the bilateral tibia of 30 rabbits through the tibial plateau to make the model of VX2 transplanted bone tumor. Seven days after modeling, the proximal tibia puncture biopsy was performed under the guidance of X-ray, and the biopsy specimen was examined pathologically. The left leg was biopsied with modified closed biopsy technique (experimental group), and the right leg was biopsied with hollow needle (control group). On the 14th day after modeling, all rabbits were executed after X-ray examination around the puncture hole, and the soft tissue around the puncture hole was taken for pathological examination. Results By the end of the experiment, a total of 3 rabbits died, and finally 27 rabbits were included in the study. Tumor cells were detected in all the intramedullary specimens obtained by puncture biopsy. On the 14th day after modeling, X-ray examination showed that, compared with control group, the incidence of periosteal reaction and extraosseous high density shadow around the puncture hole, and the tumor cell metastasis rate were lower [14.81%(4/27) vs. 40.74%(11/27); 29.63%(8/27) vs. 100.00%(27/27)], the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions Both the modified closed biopsy technique and puncture needle aspiration biopsy can provide sufficient biopsy tissue for diagnosis of VX2 transplanted bone tumor in rabbits. Meanwhile, the improved closed biopsy technique can prevent local metastasis of tumor cells along the puncture channel to some extent.

Study on the safety of retention range of pelvic floor peritoneum during laparoscopic Miles surgery / 中国医师进修杂志

Objective To investigate the safety retention range of pelvic floor peritoneum by performing pathological examinations on pelvic floor peritoneal tissue at different distance from the rectolateral incisional margin during laparoscopic Miles surgery. Methods To conduct the research, pathological examination was performed on 50 patients who had undergone laparoscopic Miles surgery in Chengdu Fifth People′s Hospital from October 2015 to October 2017 and staged under cT3N0M0. The research examined their pelvic floor peritoneum at different distance from the rectum on the "yellow-white border line", with the incisal edge being the first pathological testing point, the area 5 mm from rectum being the second testing point, and the area 10 mm from rectum being the third testing point. Results Among these 50 cases, 4 of which had pathological staging pT2-3N1-2M0 and were excluded from the research. The other 46 cases had pathological staging pT2-3N0M0. After pathological examination of the three points of each case, no tumor cells were found. There was no difference in the positive rate of tumor cells at each site, and all of which was 0. The credibility interval of 95% was estimated (46 cases) and the check table value was 0 to 0.08. Conclusions The closure of the pelvic floor peritoneum is beneficial to the patient in laparoscopic Miles surgery. Moreover, for those low rectal cancer patients with T3N0M0, proper retention of pelvic floor peritoneum within 10 mm from the incisal edge is pathologically safe.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: tortuous experience in the diagnosis and treatment of one lymphoma / 中华危重病急救医学

The etiology of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is complicated and difficult to diagnose, unexplained HLH often with hematological malignancies. Invasive biopsy can help to find etiology, the results may be affected by the technique and the location of the puncture site. Multiangle puncture can improve the success rate, but the corresponding risk increases. A patient with HLH was admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical College. The etiology was unknown. Active symptomatic support treatment was conducted, at the same time, finding the evidence of viral infection, autoimmune disease related detection, blood culture, bone marrow puncture smear and spleen biopsy were performed respectively to find the pathogen basis. Spleen hemorrhage was not being controlled after spleen biopsy in patients, and emergency splenectomy was adopted to stop bleeding for saving lives. Finally, the patients died of low protein, pulmonary edema and respiratory failure. The bone marrow puncture and spleen biopsy failed to provide the basis for tumor invasion, while the spleen pathological slices plus immunohistochemical indicate diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after splenectomy, which was identified as malignant tumor-associated hemophagocytic syndrome. Underscoring the high risk of bleeding after tumor-associated splenomegaly puncture and the importance of having emergency plans. Through analyzing the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of this patient, we hope to improve the clinicians' understanding of HLH and lymphoma.

Objective:To compare the detection results of histopathology and MRI, CT of liposarcoma of extremities,and to provide guide for increasing the accuracy rate of clinical diagnosis.Methods:The data of 43 cases of liposarcoma of the extremities were collected.MRI plain scan and enhanced CT were used in 18 patients before operation.Sixteen cases were diagnosed by CT plain scan and enhanced scan before operation.Nine cases were diagnosed by MRI and CT plain scan and enhanced scan before operation.All the patients underwent the operation. The intraoperative pathological examination was performed in the lesion tissue.The diagnosed results were assessed according to the classification (high differentiated liposarcoma, mucoid liposarcoma, toliposarcoma and mixed liposarcoma).Results:In all the 43 cases,the upper limb lesion was found in 13 patients and the lower limb lesion was found in 30 patients.The average maximal diameter of the lesions was (14.6±6.1)cm.The fat cells were found in all the patients,with the pathological characteristics of adipocytes and lipopolysaccharide mixture exists, and accompanied by deep-stained pleomorphic cells;the CT examination results showed that the low density shadow with clear boundary and linear separated shadow after CT enhanced;the MRI image showed short signal intensity on T1 weighted imaging and long signal intensity on T2 long signal and short time reversal recovery sequence imaging and other signals;the mass existed the cord-like,linear shadow;the lesion surrounding nerve and blood vessels were squeezed,but the bone structure was relatively complete.The CT and MRI results of well-differentiated lipsarcome showed the fat signal,and the enhanced results showed the mild strengthening.The CT and MRI results of mucinous liposarcoma showed the cystic density and signal, and the enhanced results showed the clound-like orlatticed mild and moderate strengthening;the CT and MRI results of mixed liposarcoma showed the mixed imaging findings of above two types.Conclusion:The pathological examination can provide the exact basis for the diagnosis of type of liposarcoma;CT and MRI imagings can provide basis for j udging the size of the tumor;MRI enhanced scan has an important role in judging tumor border.Combination of three kinds of detection methods can provide the basis for the diagnosis of the disease.

Comparative study of MRI manifestations and EEG and pathology of drug refractory epilepsy / 中国生化药物杂志

Objective To investigate the results of MRI and electroencephalogram examination and pathological examination of drug refractory epilepsy. Methods 70 cases with drug refractory epilepsy were treated with systemic antiepileptic drugs, but they still could not control their condition, and they were given MRI, EEG and pathological examination respectively. MRI, EEG and pathological findings of 70 cases were recorded, and the conclusion was drawn after statistical analysis. Results Compared with pathological examination, the localization accuracy of MRI for epileptogenic foci and related lesions was 88.57%, the accuracy of localization of EEG for epileptogenic foci and related disease was 51.43%, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05); MRI examination of the epileptogenic lesions and qualitative accuracy the rate of up to 75.71%. Conclusion According to the patients with drug intractable epilepsy, the coincidence rate of MRI examination and pathological examination is higher. Compared with EEG, it can provide clinicians with more reliable basis for the diagnosis and treatment of drug refractory epilepsy. It is helpful to protect the curative effect of these patients.

The pathophysiological change of right heart remodeling model caused by tricuspid regurgitation / 实用医学杂志

Objective To observe the pathophysiological change of right heart remodeling model of beagle dogs caused by tricuspid regurgitation. Methods Six beagle dogs were separated to TR group and sham operation group randomly and equally. The anterior and posterior leaflets of tricuspid valve of beagle dogs from TR group were cut off under direct vision on the beating heart. The echocardiography data were measured pre-operation and post-operation 3, 6, 12 months respectively and autopsy results were acquired after the sacrifice of two animals who had been raised for 18 months. Results The operation was successful and survival 100%. The weight of TR group increased, and the echocardiography showed right atrium and ventricle enlargement and right heart dysfunction. The autopsy of TR group found myocardial fibrosis , liver cirrhosis and ascites. All of the results indicated the occurrence of right heart remodeling and right heart failure. There is no significant difference in sham operation group before or after operation. Conclusion The myocardial fibrosis is one of the pathological basis of right heart remodeling.
