Research Progress in New Dosage Forms of Anti-tumor Drugs for Pulmonary Administration / 中国药师

Lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies. Anti-tumor drugs with intravenous administration have systemic adverse effects as well as limited efficacy. Drugs can concentrate in lungs after pulmonary administration,which limits the distribution in the other organs and reduces the side effects of anti-tumor drugs. The paper focused on the recent progress in the studies on new dos-age forms of anti-tumor drugs for pulmonary administration for the therapy of lung cancer,so as to provide reference for the development of anti-tumor drugs for pulmonary administration.

THE USE OF MICROSURGiCAL TECHNIC IN LARYNGEAL / 解放军医学杂志

120 cases were treated by microlaryngoscopic surgery alone from March to December 1985. Among them, 73 cases were polypoid cord, 28 cases vocal cord nodule, and 19 cases of other conditions. The immediate curative results were good in 114 cases, 5 cases fair and only 1 case was poor. The postoperative complications are: dentes primoris moving in 2 cases and aerodermectasia in 1 case.

SUPRAGLOTTIC HORIZONTAL PARTIAL LARYNGECTOMY FOR LARYNGEAL CARCINOMA: A Report of 41 Cases / 解放军医学杂志

From 1982 to 1988, we have performed supraglottic horizontal partial laryngectomy for 41 cases of laryngeal carcinoma. 19 of them were males and 22 females. 40 cases of squamous cell carcinoma accounted for 97.6%,and 75.6% of cases were in second or third stage. All the cases have been followed up. The three-year survival rate is 93.7%, the five-year survival rate is 86.5%. 95% of the patients retained their phonation ability. Decannulation rate of tracheostomy tube is 65.9%. Normal deglutition ability is found in 90.2% of cases.
