ABSTRACT

Important forensic diagnostic indicators of sudden death in coronary atherosclerotic heart dis-ease,such as acute or chronic myocardial ischemic changes,sometimes make it difficult to locate the ischemic site due to the short death process,the lack of tissue reaction time.In some cases,the de-ceased died of sudden death on the first-episode,resulting in difficulty for medical examiners to make an accurate diagnosis.However,clinical studies on coronary instability plaque revealed the key role of coronary spasm and thrombosis caused by their lesions in sudden coronary death process.This paper mainly summarizes the pathological characteristics of unstable coronary plaque based on clinical medi-cal research,including plaque rupture,plaque erosion and calcified nodules,as well as the influencing factors leading to plaque instability,and briefly describes the research progress and technique of the atherosclerotic plaques,in order to improve the study on the mechanism of sudden coronary death and improve the accuracy of the forensic diagnosis of sudden coronary death by diagnosing different patho-logic states of coronary atherosclerotic plaques.

ABSTRACT

Purpose To analyze the morphological charac-teristics of papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC)patients with NTRK gene fusion in order to provide more important morpholog-ic evidences for molecular detection.Methods A retrospective collection of 790 cases PTC was conducted.Then the patients with NTRK gene fusion were selected.The histopathological fea-tures of PTC patients with NTRK gene fusion were compared with those of classical PTC.Results Nine cases(1.1%)of NTRK fusion positive PTC were detected,including 2 cases of NTRK1 and 7 cases of NTRK3 gene fusion.The main his-topathological features were follicular subtypes,with tumors ex-hibiting multinodular infiltration or"jumping"infiltration.The cytoplasm was associated with hyaline change.The cell morphol-ogy was slight irregularity.Conclusion The incidence of NTRK fusion is low in PTC and it tends to occur in the young group.Follicular subtype is the main characteristic histopatholo-gy,with mild tumor cells.But the ability of the invasion and metastasis is strong.Therefore,NGS detection should be per-formed for early intervention and prolonging the survival of PTC patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the clinical and pathological characteristics and prognostic factors of gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma(G-NEC)and gastric mixed adenoendocrine carcinoma(G-MANEC).Methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 67 patients with G-NEC and G-MANEC who underwent surgical treatment at Heping Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from May 2015 to May 2023.The study included an analysis of the pathological characteristics distinguishing G-NEC from G-MANEC.Results:Com-pared to gastric adenocarcinoma,patients with G-NEC and G-MANEC in the stomach showed a higher incidence of gastric cancer in the male gastric cardia and were diagnosed at a later age.Tumors with larger diameters increase susceptibility to anemia,low albumin levels,and in-vasion of nerves and vasculature.Deeper tumor infiltration is associated with increased local lymph node metastases,later TNM staging,and a higher likelihood of distant metastasis post-surgery.The prognosis of G-NEC and G-MANEC is worse than that of gastric adenocarcinoma(P=0.001).However,there is no statistically significant difference in the pathological characteristics(P>0.05)and prognosis analysis(P=0.212)between G-NEC and G-MANEC.Univariate survival analysis identified age,preoperative albumin,preoperative CEA,number of lymph node metastases,TNM staging,and postoperative distant metastasis as risk factors affecting patient's overall survival(OS).In the multivariate ana-lysis,age,preoperative albumin,TNM staging,and postoperative distant metastasiswere identified as independent risk factors for OS.Con-clusions:There is a significant difference in clinical characteristics between G-NEC,G-MANEC,and gastric adenocarcinoma,often diagnosed at an advanced stage,which is prone to distant metastasis post-surgery.Poor prognosis is observed in patients aged over 60 years,with pre-operative albumin<40g/L,TNM stage Ⅱ/Ⅲ,and postoperative distant metastasis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the expression level of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) and its correlation with the clinical characteristics and prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 75 patients with cHCC-CCA undergoing surgery in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2011 to December 2019, including 61 males and 14 females, with a median age of 55 years (36 to 77). Immunohistochemistry was conducted to determine the PD-L1 expression in tumor. The status of PD-L1 expression, clinicopathological data and prognosis of patients were analyzed.Results:In low-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissues, the proportion of PD-L1 expression (21.1%, 8/38) was higher than that in moderately to well-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissues (2.70%, 1/37, χ2=4.366, P=0.037). The median disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS)of PD-L1 positive patients were 12.3 and 15.1 months, respectively, lower than those of PD-L1 negative patients (14.4 and 23.3 months). The difference of DFS was statistically significant ( χ2=4.052, P=0.044). In multivariate analysis, major vascular invasion (DFS: HR=1.965, 95% CI: 1.119-3.450, P=0.019; OS: HR=1.781, 95% CI: 1.022-3.105, P=0.042) and lymph node metastasis (DFS: HR=2.451, 95% CI: 1.1033-5.814, P=0.042; OS: HR=2.652, 95% CI: 1.120-6.279, P=0.027) were identified as independent prognostic factors affecting DFS and OS. Conclusions:The proportion of PD-L1 positive is higher inthe low-differentiated cHCC-CCA tissue compared to that in moderately to well-differentiated cHCC-CCA. The major vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis are independent factors affecting the prognosis of patients with cHCC-CCA.

ABSTRACT

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease driven by antigens and mediated by T cells. Collagen II (CII) and fibrinogen (Fib) are the two main antigens in the pathogenesis of RA. The antigen produced after citrulline modification (Cit) is also one of the inducements to induce the body to produce a pathogenic anti-citrulline protein antibody (ACPA). To provide a reference for RA-related research, this study intends to establish an RA animal model by using CII, Cit-CII, Fib, and Cit-Fib antigens, emulsification with complete Freund's adjuvant and immunization with DBA/1 mice, respectively, to compare the pathological characteristics of RA models induced by different antigens from the aspects of pathology, imaging and serum biochemistry. Animal welfare and experimental process are in accordance with the regulations of the Experimental Animal Ethics Committee of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences. The results showed that the CII, Cit-CII, and Cit-Fib induced mice all had symptoms such as joint redness and swelling, and toe deformation and the clinical score and incidence rate were higher than those of the normal group. The CII group had the most serious lesions, with a incidence rate of 100%, and the Cit-CII and Cit-Fib groups had mild symptoms, with a incidence rate of 25% and 37.5%, respectively; pathological and imaging examination results showed that the joints of mice in CII-induced group showed severe synovial inflammation, cartilage and bone destruction, while those in Cit-CII and Cit-Fib group showed only slight inflammatory infiltration, joint cavity stenosis and bone destruction; the results of serum antibody detection showed that CII, Cit-CII and Cit-Fib groups all produced high levels of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibodies, among which, Cit-Fib group > Cit-CII group > CII group > Fib group, and both Cit-CII and Cit-Fib groups produced high levels of citrullinated epitope-specific antibodies, while the total IgG level was the highest in CII group; serum ELISA and RT-PCR analysis of joint tissue showed that the expression of pro-inflammatory factors and bone destruction-related molecules increased most significantly in the CII-induced group, followed by Cit-Fib and Cit-CII. The above results showed that among the four different antigens, the symptoms and conditions of arthritis in RA mice induced by CII were the most serious, and IgG instead of anti-CCP antibody was its typical immunological feature, and CII could be the first choice for the model of RA mice; Cit-Fib has certain immunogenicity, can partially induce the symptoms and conditions of RA arthritis in mice, and produce high-level anti-CCP antibody and anti-Cit-Fib antibody, which is more suitable for the study of citrulline-related RA; although Cit-CII has certain immunogenicity, the incidence, and severity of RA arthritis induced by Cit-CII in mice are low.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective    To investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment of primary mediastinal yolk sac tumor (PMYST). Methods    We collected the clinical data of PMYST patients who were admitted to the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from September 2000 to September 2020. The clinical and pathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis of PMYST patients were retrospectively analyzed. Results     Finally 18 patients were enrolled, including 17 males and 1 female with a median age of 22.0 (16.6, 26.2) years. Patients had increased level of alpha fetoprotein (AFP). The pathological type can be single yolk sac tumor or combined with other mediastinal germ cell tumors. Chemotherapy and radical surgery were the main treatment methods. Extensive resection was feasible for patients with tumor invasion of other organs. Seven patients developed lung or pleural metastasis after operation, and 3 of them had extrapleural metastasis. One patient recurred within 1 year after surgery. All patients were followed up by telephone or outpatient department. At the last follow-up, 5 patients survived, 9 died, and 4 were lost to follow up, with a median survival of 16.8 months. The median disease-free survival was 14.9 months. The survival rates at 1, 3 and 5 years were 73.3%, 28.6% and 11.8%, respectively. Conclusion    PMYST often occurs in young-middle aged male patients. Preoperative puncture can provide an effective diagnostic basis. R0 resection, AFP returning to normal after treatment and no metastasis may be potential indicators of good prognosis. The overall prognosis of PMYST is poor, and some patients can achieve long-term survival after treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the value of T2 map and synthetic T2WI generated by T2 mapping in evaluating the histological type, pathological classification and depth of myometrial invasion of endometrial carcinoma (EC). Methods: Seventy-three patients with pathologically proven EC diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from December 2019 to December 2021 and 42 healthy volunteers were enrolled in the study. All subjects underwent conventional MRI, diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and T2 mapping sequence for the pelvic cavity to test the T2 values and the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of the focus nidus of the patients and the normal endometrium of the volunteers. The T2 and ADC values of EC vs normal endometrium, and those of different histological types and pathological grades were compared. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of T2 and ADC values in determining the pathological type and classification of EC. In addition, two radiologists used synthetic T2WI combined with T2 map and conventional T2WI combined with DWI, respectively, to evaluate the depth of myometrial invasion, and compared the imaging results with the results of pathological diagnosis to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of the two methods in determining the depth of myometrial invasion. Results: The T2 and ADC values of endometrial carcinoma were 85.0 (80.8, 92.5) ms and 0.71 (0.64, 0.77) ×10(-3) mm(2)/s, respectively, which were significantly lower than those of normal endometrium [147.4 (123.4, 176.7) ms and 1.46 (1.26, 1.76)×10(-3) mm(2)/s, respectively; both P<0.05]. The T2 values of endometrioid carcinoma (EA) [84.1 (79.5, 88.7) ms] were significantly lower than those of non-EA [98.8 (92.1, 102.8) ms; P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in ADC values between EA and non-EA (P=0.075). The T2 values of G1, G2 and G3 groups in EA were 89.1 (84.4, 94.4) ms, 83.6 (80.9, 86.2) ms, and 76.5 (71.4, 80.3) ms, respectively. There were significant differences in the T2 values between G1 vs G2, G1 vs G3, and G2 vs G3 groups, respectively (all P<0.017). Significant difference was also found in the ADC values between the G1 and G3 groups (P<0.017). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of T2 values in distinguishing EA from non-EA was 0.867. The AUC of T2 values, ADC values and their combination in predicting high-grade EA was 0.888, 0.730 and 0.895, respectively. The accuracy of synthetic T2WI+ T2 map and conventional T2WI+ DWI in the diagnosis of deep myometrial invasion was 78.1% and 79.5%, respectively, with no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusions: T2 mapping has great potential in preoperative evaluation of EC. The quantitative T2 value can be used in the diagnosis, pathological classification and grading of EC. The combination of synthetic T2WI and T2 map may be helpful to determine the depth of myometrial invasion.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the relationship between preoperative fibrinogen to albumin ratio(FAR)and pathological features of pancreatic head carcinoma and prognosis influencing factors.Methods The clinical data of 92 patients with pancreatic head carcinoma who underwent radical pancreaticoduodenectomy in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2016 to De-cember 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.Receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of preoperative FAR level.COX proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the independent risk factors of pancreatic head car-cinoma,and Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve.Results Univariate analysis of COX proportional risk regression model showed that preoperative high FAR,high carbohydrate antigen 19-9(Ca19-9),lymph node metastasis,high TNM stage,low differentiation and maximum tumor diameter ≥4cm were associated with poor prognosis in patients with pancreatic head carcinoma.Multi-variate analysis showed that high Ca19-9,preoperative high FAR,high TNM stage and low differentiation were independent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with pancreatic head carcinoma.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the survival rates of patients in the low FAR group were 68.3%and 37.5%in the first year and the third year,respectively;and those in the high FAR group were 32.4%and 3.1%,respectively.The mean survival time and median survival time of patients in the low FAR group were significantly bet-ter those in the high FAR group(24.4months vs 9.7months,17.0months vs 8.0months),and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Preoperative FAR can effectively predict the prognosis of patients with pancreatic head cancer.Patients with high Ca19-9,high preoperative FAR,high TNM stage and low differentiation have worse prognosis and shorter survival time.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the clinical significance of multigene assay in papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC). Methods:Patients who underwent thyroidectomy in a tertiary hospital from August 2021 to May 2022 were enrolled. The eight-gene panel was used to detect the tumor tissue of patients, and the correlation between gene mutations and clinical features was analyzed. Results:Among 161 patients, mutation rate of BRAF V600E, RET/PTC1 and TERT promotor were 82.0%, 6.8% and 4.3%, respectively. BRAF V600E mutation was more common in male patients(P=0.023). TERT promotor-mutated tumors had a large diameter(P=0.019), a high proportion of multifocal lesions(P=0.050), and a large number of lymph node metastases(P=0.031). Among 89 patients who completed preoperative BRAF detection, there was a strong consistency between the preoperative aspiration test and postoperative panel(Cohen κ=0.694, 95%CI: 0.482-0.906, P<0.01). In the hematoxylin-eosin sections obtained from 80 patients, BRAF V600E was still the main type of gene mutation, and the classical/follicular type was more distributed. TERT promotor and RET/PTC1 mutation were the main genetic events for tall-cell/columnar/hobnail type and diffuse sclerosing type, respectively. One-way ANOVA showed that there were differences in diagnosis age(P=0.029) and tumor size(P<0.01) among different pathological types. Conclusion:As a simple and feasible clinical detection method for PTC, the multigene assay can supplement the identification of important genetic events other than BRAF V600E, and provide more prognostic information and follow-up hints for postoperative patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical pathologic features of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) in postmenopausal women.Methods:The clinical data of hospital patients with HSIL admitted to the Department of Gynecology of The First People's Hospital of Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province from January 2019 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients undergoing liquid-based thin-layer cytology, high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV), colposcopy, cervical biopsy and Endocervical curettage (ECC), pathological diagnosis of HSIL, followed by cold knife conization (CKC). The diagnosis and treatment process conformed to the cervical cancer diagnosis and treatment norms, and there were a total of 594 patients with no previous cervical surgery history,including 463 cases in the premenopausal group and 131 cases in the menopausal group, and the age, contact bleeding, gynecological examination, HR-HPV, liquid-based thin layer cytology, colposcopy and biopsy results, and post-cervical cone surgery pathological results were compared and analyzed, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was carried out for statistically different factors to identify the clinical pathological characteristics of postmenopausal HSIL patients. T-test was used for the comparison between measurement data groups with normal distribution, and rank sum test was used for the comparison between measurement data groups with non normal distribution. Counting data use χ 2 test or Fisher exact probability method. Logistic regression analysis was used in multivariate analysis. Results:There was no significant difference in the positive rate of contact bleeding (12.98%(17/131)) and HR-HPV (77.86%(102/131)) between postmenopausal group and non postmenopausal group (11.45%(53/463) and 80.56% (373/463))(χ 2 values were 0.23 and 0.46; P values were 0.632 and 0.496). The proportion of cervical columnar epithelium displacement (43.51% (57/131)) and abnormal liquid-based thin-layer cytology (87.79%(115/131)) in the postmenopausal group were lower than those in the non postmenopausal group (64.36%(298/463) and 93.74%(434/463)). There was significant difference between the two groups (χ 2 values were 18.46 and 5.16; P values were < 0.001 and 0.023). The positive rate of ECC (62.60%(82/131)), cervical type Ⅲ transformation area (73.28%(96/131)), the proportion of pathological upgrading after conization (9.92%(13/131)) and the positive rate of cutting edge after conization (24.43%(32/131)) in menopausal group were higher than those in non menopausal patients (46.22%(214/463), 26.78%(124/463), 1.73%(8/463) and 5.40%(25/463)). There were significant differences between the two groups (χ 2 values were 10.95, 94.68, 20.11 and 42.62; P values were 0.001, <0.001, <0.001 and <0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed a high proportion of cervical type Ⅲ transformational zones ( OR=6.569, 95% CI 4.130-10.446), high ECC positivity ( OR=1.978, 95% CI 1.250-3.128), the positive rate of cone incision margins was high ( OR=4.581, 95% CI 2.386-8.794), the proportion of pathological escalation after cone surgery ( OR=4.612, 95% CI 1.557-13.668) and the proportion of smooth cervical appearance were high ( OR=0.464, 95% CI 0.294-0.731), which was the clinicopathological feature of postmenopausal HSIL ( P values were <0.001, 0.004, <0.001, 0.006 and 0.001). Conclusion:There were differences in HSIL in patients before and after menopause, clinical symptoms and screening manifestations were atypical, and lesions are easy to involve the cervical canal, the positive rate of the cut margin after coneectomy was high, and the proportion of pathological escalation was high, so more aggressive intervention should be taken for women diagnosed with precancerous cervical lesions after menopause

ABSTRACT

Objective:To discuss the clinical and pathological features of the patients with renal oncocytoma.Methods:Making a retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 35 patients with renal oncocytoma who were admitted to the department of urology in the First affiliated Hospital of China Medical University from January 2013 to August 2020, discussing their clinical features, pathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis. The age range of the 35 patients was 35-79 years, with an average age of (59.0±11.3) years, there were 15 males and 20 females. The tumors of the 35 patients were unilateral, concluded 22 cases on the left side and 13 cases on the right side.Among the 35 patients, the tumors of 7 cases located in the upper pole, 14 in the middle pole, and 14 in the lower pole. At the time of admission, 5 patients complained with flank pain, 3 patients had gross hematuria, and the other patients were found during physical examination or examination due to other diseases. In the imaging examination, there were 33 cases of ultrasound data, including 18 cases of hypoechoic, 10 cases of hyperechoic, 3 cases of isoechoic and 2 cases of mixed echo. The data of CT were collected in 30 cases. The tumors showed isointense or slightly hypointense on plain scan, after enhancement, it showed low enhancement with clear boundary to the renal parenchyma and 12 patients had typical central stellate scar sign. All patients accepted surgical treatment, including 23 cases of retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery and 12 cases of open surgery, but only 12 cases had partial nephrectomy.Results:The tumors were incised after the operation, the range of the tumors’diameter was 1.3-14.0 cm, with an average of (4.0±2.3) cm. The color of the cross-section was tawny in 14 cases, mahogany in 19 cases and 2 cases of other colors. The typical features of tumor cell under microscope were arranged in nests, alveolar or tubular shapes, the cells were round or polygonal.The cell size was uniform, the cytoplasm was rich in eosinophilic granules, the nuclei was deeply stained and the nucleoli was small. There are 9 indicators reach to 20 cases in immunohistochemical stain, and the positive rates of each indicator are respectively EMA 100.0%(23/23), E-cadherin 100.0%(20/20), CK 96.2%(25/26), CD117 95.5%(21/22), p504S(AMACR)35.0%(7/20), CD10 33.3%(9/27), CK7 31.0%(9/29), Vimentin 17.2%(5/29), Ki-67(0/28). Thirty-five patients were followed up after surgery, 4 patients were lost to follow-up, and the follow-up time of the other 31 patients ranged from 7 to 90 months, with an average of (46.9±25.0) months. All patients had a good prognosis without recurrence or metastasis. Among them, 3 patients had mild renal insufficiency in a short time after operation, and they have all recovered. Three patients with gross hematuria before the operation disappeared after the operation. In 5 patients with low back pain, only two patients felt significant improvement, and the other three still felt intermittent episodes of dull lumbar pain.Conclusions:Renal oncocytoma is a relatively rare benign tumor of the kidney. Because of the lack of effective diagnostic methods, it is difficult to differentiate from renal malignant tumors preoperatively. Pathological results are the golden standard for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of renal oncocytoma. The main treatment of renal oncocytoma is surgery, and after surgery, the patient's prognosis is good, but renal oncocytoma has the possibility of recurrence and metastasis, regular follow-up and surveillance are still required.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the characteristics, trend and influencing factors of occupational pneumoconiosis in Guizhou, and to provide reference for the prevention and treatment of occupational pneumoconiosis. Methods A total of 1 974 mining patients in Guizhou province were selected from 2019-2020 by stratified sampling survey method. According to whether they were accompanied by occupational pneumoconiosis, they were divided into control group (n=1218) and experimental group (n=756) to analyze the morbidity characteristics, changing trend and influencing factors of occupational pneumoconiosis. Results From 2019 to 2020, 756 (38.30%) of the 1974 mining people in Guizhou suffered from occupational pneumoconiosis, including 602 (79.63%) in stage I, 86 (11.38%) in Stage II, and 68 (8.99%) in stage III. The average age was (57.36±6.89) years, and the average length of service was (15.56±4.47) years. The onset age was mainly from 50 to 69 years, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=8.214,P2=25.429,P2=8.797,P2=27.212,P<0.05). There were significant differences in age, sex, smoking ratio, length of exposure to dust and complications between the two groups (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age, length of dust exposure and complications were independent risk factors for occupational pneumoconiosis (P<0.05). Conclusion The occupational pneumoconiosis in Guizhou area is mainly male, the high incidence age is 50-69 years old, the development is stable, while the incidence of silicosis is increasing in recent years, among which the dust exposure age, age and complications are the high risk factors of occupational pneumoconiosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the clinical and pathological characteristics of colorectal laterally spreading tumor (CLST) and provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of CLST.Methods:From January 1, 2016 to June 30, 2021, the clinical data of patients with CLST who underwent endoscopic resection at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University were retrospectively collected. The clinical and pathological characteristics of CLST were analyzed in terms of lesion location (right colon, left colon, rectum) and morphological type (granular-homogeneous type, granular-mixed type, flat-elevated type, and pseudo-depressed type). One-way analysis of variance, Pearson′s chi-square test and Fisher′s exact test were used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 266 patients with CLST and 296 CLST lesions were included. The most common maximum diameters of the lesions were 10 to 29 mm, accounting for 85.1% (252/296). The main morphological type was granular type, accounting for 81.4% (241/296), and the main pathological type was adenoma, accounting for 79.7% (236/296), and the most common histological type was low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN), accounting for 81.1% (240/296). The maximum diameter of CLST lesion of rectum was larger than that of the right colon and the left colon ((24.20±16.97), (18.38±8.24) and (18.59±7.95) mm, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant ( F=6.62, P<0.001). The detection rate of granular-homogeneous type CLST in rectum was lower than that in the right colon and the left colon (22.0%, 11/50, 53.5%, 69/129 and 58.9%, 69/117, respectively), while the detection rate of granular-mixed type CLST in rectum was higher than that in the right colon and the left colon (50.0%, 25/50; 29.4%, 38/129 and 24.8%, 29/117, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=20.06 and 10.67, both P<0.01). The incidence of adenoma in CLST in the right colon was lower than that in the left colon and rectum (68.2%, 88/129; 87.2%, 102/117 and 92.0%, 46/50, respectively), while the incidence of serrated adenoma in CLST in the right colon was higher than that in the left colon and rectum (30.2%, 39/129; 12.8%, 15/117 and 4.0%, 2/50, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=19.25 and 20.85, both P<0.001). The CLST in left colon was mostly treated by endoscopic submucosa dissection (94.9%, 111/117), while the CLST in rectum was mostly treated by endoscopic mucosal resection (20.0%, 10/50), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=8.77, P=0.012). The maximum diameter of the pseudo-depressed type CLST was larger than that of the granular-homogeneous type, granular-mixed type and flat-elevated type ((24.18±14.07), (15.96±5.70), (23.49±13.80) and (21.21±8.02) mm), and the difference was statistically significant ( F=13.40, P<0.001). The incidence of adenoma in flat-elevated type CLST was higher than that of the granular-homogeneous type, granular-mixed type and pseudo-depressed type (92.1%, 35/38; 71.1%, 106/149; 86.9%, 80/92 and 15/17, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=14.13, P=0.003). The incidence of serrated adenoma in the granular-homogeneous type CLST was higher than that of the granular-mixed type, flat-elevated type and pseudo-depressed type (28.9%, 43/149; 10.9%, 10/92; 5.3%, 2/38 and 1/17, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=19.98, P<0.001). The incidence of adenocarcinoma in the pseudo-depressed type CLST was higher than that of the granular-homogeneous type, granular-mixed type and flat-elevated type (1/17; 0, 0/149; 2.2%, 2/92 and 2.6%, 1/38, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant (Fisher′s exact test, P=0.049). The incidence of LGIN in the granular-homogeneous type CLST was higher than that of the granular-mixed type, flat-elevated type and pseudo-depressed type (90.6%, 135/149; 76.1%, 70/92; 65.8%, 25/38 and 10/17, respectively), while the incidences of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia and carcinoma in the pseudo-depressed type CLST were higher than those of the granular-homogeneous type, granular-mixed type and flat-elevated type (6/17; 9.4%, 14/149; 21.7%, 20/92; 31.6%, 12/38 and 1/17; 0, 0/149; 2.2%, 2/92 and 2.6%, 1/38), and the differences were statistically significant( χ2=21.58 and 16.81 and Fisher′s exact test, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The clinicopathological characteristics of CLST have certain specificity. The maximum diameter and malignant potential of the rectal CLST are both larger and higher than those of the colonic CLST. Although the granular-mixed type CLST is the granular type, it shows a larger maximum diameter and a higher degree of malignancy.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate breast ultrasound imaging and pathological characteristics of patients with hereditary breast cancer-ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC).Methods:A total of 12 patients with HBOC admitted to Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from January 2012 to 2021 April were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were pathologically diagnosed as invasive breast cancer based on the preoperative puncture or surgical specimens, including 3 patients with double primary cancers of breast and ovary. The clinical, breast ultrasound imaging and pathological data of patients were analyzed.Results:The ultrasound imaging of HBOC usually showed regular morphology in 8 cases, clear border in 9 cases, no burr sign in 10 cases, no calcification in 10 cases, rear echo in 10 cases; the maximum blood flow velocity was (0.21±0.09) m/s, the vascular resistance index was 0.72±0.17, and aspect ratio ≤ 1 in 8 cases. Among 12 cases of HBOS, 9 cases were invasive ductal carcinoma, 3 cases were breast cancer with medullary features; histological grade: 7 cases of grade Ⅱ, 5 cases of grade Ⅲ; molecular classification: Luminal B type in 2 cases, human epithelial receptor 2 (HER2) type in 4 cases, and triple-negative type in 6 cases. The histological types of 3 patients with double primary cancers of breast and ovary were all high-grade serous carcinoma.Conclusions:HBOC is a type of neoplastic disease with a special genetic background. Ultrasound and pathological manifestations have certain characteristics. Sonographers should improve the understanding of the disease and pay attention to the medical history and family history in order to reduce the rate of misdiagnosis and increase the rate of diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the epidemiological and clinicopathological characteristics of thyroid cancer.Methods:Data of 13 673 thyroid cancer patients admitted to the First Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from Jan. 2014 to Dec. 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the admission criteria, 9 662 patients were screened out, including 2 768 males and 6 894 females, with an average age of 43.98±11.28 years. According to the year of diagnosis and treatment, the incidence of thyroid cancer, the changing trend of age of new cases, the average length of hospitalization, the pathological classification of the tumor, the size of the primary tumor, multifocal tumor, and the rate of lymph node metastasis were statistically analyzed. The surgical methods were summarized and discussed.Results:① Characteristics of population economics: the ratio of males to females were 1.00:2.49, the number of cases increased year by year, and the rate of increase of female was higher than that of male. The average age of onset of the patients was (43.98±11.28) years old, and the incidence rate of the young population increased by 6.0%, showing a younger trend. The mean length of hospital stay was (7.21±2.85) d, and the length of hospital stay decreased. ② Clinicopathological features: There were 9 513 cases of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) (98.46%) , 45 cases of follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) (0.47%) , 58 cases of medullary carcinoma (MTC) (0.60%) and 18 cases of poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma (PDTC) (0.19%) . There were 2 cases (0.02%) of undifferentiated thyroid carcinoma (ATC) and 26 cases (0.26%) of a particular type. The tumor size was (1.10±0.85) cm, among which the microcarcinoma (D ≤1 cm) accounted for 64.5% and showed an increasing trend year by year, with the fastest growth rate. There were 3 809 cases of multifocal carcinoma (39.4%) , and the proportion of multifocal carcinoma increased year by year in recent 3 years. The central region and lateral region lymph node metastasis rates were 33.0% and 13.0%, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that the differences were statistically significant except for pathological types ( P<0.05) . ③ Surgical methods: in the first 3 years, 2 224 patients (84.2%) underwent normative primary resection, which increased to 94.9% in the last 3 years. In the first 3 years, 2 033 patients (77.0%) underwent central lymph node dissection, which increased to 91.8% in the last 3 years. In the first 3 years, 188 cases (50.5%) underwent normative lateral cervical dissection, which increased to 71.6% in the last 3 years. Conclusions:The incidence of thyroid cancer is increasing year by year, showing a younger trend; Papillary carcinoma accounts for 98.5% of thyroid cancer. The proportion of microcarcinoma and multifocal carcinoma is increasing. The rate of lymph node metastasis in the central region and lateral region is increasing; surgery is gradually standardized, and it is necessary to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer and postoperative follow-up.
