RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the clinical,pathological and imaging features of basal cell adenoma in the parotid. Methods The clinical,pathological and CT imaging data of 21 cases with parotid basal cell tumor confirmed by operation and pathology were retrospectively analyzed. Results All 21 patients(5 male,16 female ) had solitary BCA lesion,which located at the superficial lobe of parotid gland(n=17)and involved both the superficial and deep lobe(n=4). Twelve lesions were well-defined and cystic degeneration was displayed in 9 le-sions,3 lesions had punctate calcification at the edge of tumor. All lesions were significantly enhanced,the enhancement of BCA in the ve-nous phase was close to the arterial phase. Conclusion The CT features of BCA in parotid gland are characteristic,which is helpful to make qualitative diagnosis when in combination with clinical features.
RESUMEN
Purpose:To estimate the curative effects and side effects obtained from high-dose epirubicin (EPI) combination therapy in the treatment of advanced chest malignant tumors. Methods:Forty-eight cases with advanced chest malignant tumor(32 cases with non-small-cell lung cancer; eleven cases with breast cancer and five cases with mediastinal malignant lymphomas) were treated with the combination therapy of high-dose EPI. Results:The response rate in non-small-cell lung cancer was 56.3%, in breast cancer was 72.7%, in mediastinal malignant lymphomas was 100%. The most frequent toxicities were neutropenia.Conclusions:The combined chemotherapy of high-does EPI is an effective and safe treatment in advanced chest malignant tumor.
