ABSTRACT
We report a patient with small intestinal metastasis from lung squamous cell carcinoma. A 66-year-old man who underwent radical lung cancer surgery was admitted to our hospital. Before starting his fifth cycle of chemotherapy, he was found to have a positive fecal occult blood test. Abdominal computed tomography scan revealed an ileal tumor with mesenteric lymph node enlargement. He underwent laparoscopic resection of the involved small intestine and mesentery. Histopathological analysis confirmed metastasis from lung cancer. We conducted a review of the literature and 64 documented cases of small intestinal metastasis from lung cancer were found. The pathologic diagnosis, clinical presentation, site of metastasis, and survival time in these cases were reviewed.

OBJECTIVE: To study the correlation between high-resolution HLA-A * 1101, HLA-A * 0201, HLA-A * 2402, HLA-B * 4001, HLA-DRB1 * 0901 with HCMV pp65 antigenemia after bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in China. METHODS: 48 recipients doing BMT during 2009. 2-2010. 10 were selected in my hospital; HCMV pp65 was detected by ELISA or immunohistochemical methods. The frequency of HLA-A * 1101, HLA-A * 0201, HLA-A * 2402, HLA-B * 4001, HLA-DRB1 * 0901 alleles were determined by Polymerase chain reaction-sequence based typing (PCR - SBT). RESULTS: (1) The BMT recipients were HCMV pp65 antigenic positive(100%); (2) The positive rate of HLA-A * 1101, HLA-A * 0201, HLA-A * 2402, HLA-B * 4001 showed no obvious difference between 12 lower antigenemia group and 36 higher antigenemia group, the positive rate: HLA-A * 1101 were 33.3% (8/24) and 20.8% (15/72), HLA-A * 0201 were 4.2% (1/24) and 13.9% (10/72), HLA-A * 2402 were 12.5% (3/24) and 19.4% (14/72), HLA-B* 4001 were 16.7% (4/24) and 12.5% (9/72); (3) HLA-DRB1 * 0901 positive rate in higher antigenemia group was higher than the lower (P = 0.048), the positive rate were 4.2% (1/24) and 19.4% (14/72); (4) HLA-DRB1 * 0901 recipients were higher pp65 antigenemia than HLA-A * 2402 recipients (P = 0.007) and HLA-A * 1101 recipients (P = 0.028), HLA-A * 0201 recipients were higher pp65 antigenemia than HLA-A * 2402 (P = 0.02), the pp65 antigenemia showed no obvious difference among the rest of high-resolution HLA groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: HLA-DRB1 * 0901 alleles might be correlated with BMT recipients happened higher pp65 antigenemia, HLA-A * 2402 alleles might be correlated with BMT recipients happened lower pp65 antigenemia.
