Research progress of decellularized extracellular matrix hydrogel in regenerative medicine / 生物医学工程学杂志

Decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) has been widely used as a scaffold for regenerative medicine due to its high biomimetic and excellent biocompatibility. As a functional polymer material with high water content and controlled fluidity, hydrogel is very promising for some minimally invasive surgery in clinical practice. In recent years, with the rapid development of hydrogel theory and technology, dECM hydrogel has gradually become a research hotspot in the field of regenerative medicine. In this paper, the related researches in recent years are reviewed regarding the preparation of dECM hydrogel and its preclinical application. The future clinical use is also prospected.

Clinicopathological study of 12 cases of salivary myoepithelial carcinoma / 临床与实验病理学杂志

Purpose To study the clinical features,pathological manifestation and immunohistochemical phenotype and improve the diagnosis and treatment of myoepithelial carcinoma in salivary glands.Methods Histomorphology and immunohistochemical phenotype were analyzed after the sections were stained with routine HE and immunohistochemical methods,and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results The tumours were predominantly composed of pale-stained clear cells.In some cases,plasma-like cells,epithelioid cells and spindle cells were also seen.The cells were arranged in nest,solid or cords.Mitosis was easily seen,cytological atypia was obvious and necrosis existed in 4 cases.The results of immunohistochemical staining showed that CK was expressed in all cases.EMA was expressed in 8 cases.p63 and CK5/6 were expressed in 11 cases.S-100 was expressed in 10 cases.vimentin was expressed in 4 cases.Calponin was expressed in 2 cases.SMA was expressed in one case.The proliferation index of Ki-67 was 5％ to 40％.Conclusion The histological changes of myoepithelial carcinoma cells are diverse,and pathological and immunohistochemical methods are helpful for improving the rate of right diagnosis.Sugery is the main treatment for myoepithelial carcinoma.

Transcranial endoscopic excision of glossopharyngeal nerve to treat glossopharyngeal neuralgia / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To introduce a new transcranial endoscopic approach of glossopharyngeal neurotomy to treat glossopharyngeal neuralgia.@*METHOD@#The clinical data, the operative technique, the operative effect and the result of follow-up of two patients were presented. Through reviewing pertinent literature, we discussed the therapeutic advancement of glossopharyngeal neuralgia and the preponderance of transcranial endoscopic approach of glossopharyngeal neurotomy.@*RESULT@#The two patients both have satisfied outcomes and remained free of disease after surgical treatment. The endoscopic surgery has many significant advantages, such as rigorous operation, little injury, precise therapeutic effect, few complication, and so on.@*CONCLUSION@#Transcranial endoscopic approach of glossopharyngeal neurotomy is an ideal method to treat glossopharyngeal neuralgia.

The value of exposure recurrent laryngeal nerve in thyroidectomy / 中国耳鼻咽喉头颈外科

OBJECTIVE To explore the advantage of exposure recurrent laryngeal nerve in thyroidectomy. METHODS Exposure the recurrent laryngeal nerve was performed deliberately in 452 cases during thyroidectomy. The larynx was examined with laryngoscope before and after operation. RESULTS Of the 452 cases with 748 exposed recurrent laryngeal nerve, only 14 cases (1.88%) occurred temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy, and 2 cases (0.27%) occurred permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy. CONCLUSION Exposure the recurrent laryngeal nerve during thyroidectomy can protect the nerve from surgery injury.
