Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of gastric stromal tumor. Methods Clinical data of 217 patients with gastric stromal tumor from October 2007 to July 2011 were analyzed. Results The main clinical manifestation were abdominal pain, abdominal distension, bloody stools, abdominal mass, and so on. The tumour located at cardiac part, fundus of stomach, body of stomach, and pylorus part was 24 cases (11.0%), 103 cases (47.5%), 59 cases (27.2%), and 31 cases (14.3%), respectively. All the 217 patients underwent endoscopic or surgical resection and diagnosed by pathology and immunohistochemistry. The patients of high-low risk, low risk, intermediate risk, and high risk was 56 cases (25.8%), 67 cases (30.9%), 41 cases (18.9%), and 53 cases (24.4%), respectively. One hundred and forty patients were followed-up for 7-52 months (average 35 months). Thirty-five patients of high risk were investigated about the drug treatment after the first operation:19 cases were treated by using imatinib (tumor progressed in 2 cases) and 16 patients were not (tumor progressed in 9 patients). The rate of progression of patients treated by imatinib was significantly lower than another group (χ2=8.426, P=0.004). In 11 patients with tumor progressed, tumor recurrnce in 4 cases, tumor recurrence with diffused abdominal cavity metastasis in 1 case, tumor metastasized to humerus in 1 case, metastasized to liver and abdominal cavity in 1 case, and metastasized to liver in 4 cases. Conclusions Gastric stormal tumor is lack of specific clinical manifestations. Complete excision of the tumor is the main therapy method, and imatinib can improve prognosis.
目的:分析原发性胆汁性肝硬化(PBC)患者的临床表现,试验室检查及治疗情况。方法:回顾性分析48例PBC患者临床资料。结果:93.8%是中年女性患者,平均年龄53.2±8.73。主要的临床表现包括肝功能异常(ALT、GGT、AKP升高)95.8%,乏力纳差83.3%,黄疸79.2%,瘙痒66.6%,肝肿大62.5%,脾大58.3%等。常合并干燥综合征(25%),类风湿关节炎(16.7%)等自身免疫性疾病及结缔组织疾病。所以患者AMA及AMAM-2均为阳性。全部病例使用熊去氧胆酸治疗,但仅31.3%患者病情有不同程度好转。结论:加强对PBC的认识,重视对AMA 或AMA-M2的检测,尤其对长期不明原因肝功能异常的女性患者。
ObjectiveTo investigate the research progress of diagnosis and treatment of iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS) so as to find the optimal diagnosis and treatment method in clinic. MethodLiterature about etiology, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of IVCS in recent years was reviewed. ResultsIVCS was one of the pelvic vein obstructive diseases. The compression of left common iliac vein by right common iliac artery was more common in clinic, and it could also cause partial or complete occlusion of the iliac vein due to other external pressures. Clinical manifestations mainly included venous pain, edema, varicose veins, venous ulcer, skin pigmentation, and other skin nutritional changes. The examination methods mainly included color Doppler ultrasound, computed tomography venography, magnetic resonance venography, intravascular ultrasound, and venography. The treatment method had been changed from the original open venous reconstruction to intravascular treatment. Endovascular treatment was included thrombolysis, thrombectomy, percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy, balloon angioplasty, and endovascular stent treatment or combination treatment according to whether they were combined with iliac-femoral venous thrombosis or not. ConclusionBased on the existing researches, intravascular ultrasound is the first choice to diagnose and guide the intravascular treatment, and iliac vein stenting is an effective method for the treatment of IVCS with a good long-term patency and obvious symptom improvement.
Hydroxychloroquine is widely used in a variety of autoimmune diseases. However, long-term use of hydroxychloroquine can cause severe retinopathy, which has a complex pathogenic mechanism and diverse clinical manifestations, mainly manifested as photoreceptor and retinal pigment epithelial damage and irreversible vision loss. Identifying damage before retinitis pigment epithelium lesions preserve central vision, so early detection is crucial to slow disease progression and reduce vision loss. The development of multimodal imaging technology and the issuance of the latest treatment guidelines provide a powerful tool for the early screening and treatment of hydroxychloroquine retinopathy. Proficient in the latest guidelines for the treatment of hydroxychloroquine can better guide clinicians to do a good job in disease screening and management, recommend risks, safe dosages and appropriate screening procedures to patients and strengthen the prevention of hydroxychloroquine retinopathy, which will help save the vision of more patients and reduce the waste of medical resources.
Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations, CT and prognosis of pontine hemorrhage. Methods Analyze the summarized clinical data of 21 patients with pontine hemorrhage retrospectively. Results The period of 46-70 years old was vulnerable to pontine hemorrhage,and hypertension was the major risky factor of it. The death rate of pontine hemorrhage inceases when the bleeding beyond 5 ml. Nine of the 21 patients survived. Conclution The prognosis was highly related to the bleeding amount, the position of bleeding and the complication.
