Spontaneous acute tumor lysis syndrome with advanced gastric cancer

Acute tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) occurs frequently in hematologic malignancies such as high-grade lymphomas and acute leukemia, which are rapidly proliferating and chemosensitive tumors. It occurs rarely in solid tumors and has never been reported in gastric adenocarcinoma. Typical biochemical findings of acute tumor lysis syndrome are hyperuricemia, hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia and hypocalcemia in patients with a malignancy. Rapid changes of these electrolytes may cause cardiac arrhythmia, seizure, acute renal failure and sudden death. Therefore, as soon as it is detected, it should be taken care of immediately. Until now almost all cases of TLS associated with solid tumor have developed after cytoreductive therapy in chemosensitive tumors. We report here a case of spontaneous acute tumor lysis in a patient of advanced gastric cancer with hepatic metastases and multiple lymphadenopathy. The biochemical finding of TLS improved with the management and tumor burden also showed slight response to the one cycled combination chemotherapy but the patient died of progressive pneumonia.     

二维超声评价原发性肾病综合征预后的价值

目的　探讨二维超声对原发性肾病综合征预后的判断价值。方法　根据临床检查结果将 12 0例原发性肾病综合征患者分为 3组 ,并与二维超声检查结果进行相关性分析。结果　完全缓解组的肾脏超声检查结果与对照组比较无显著性差异 (P >0 .0 5 ) ,部分缓解组的肾脏超声检查结果与对照组比较有显著性差异 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,无效组的肾脏超声检查结果与对照组比较有非常显著性差异 (P <0 .0 1)。结论　二维超声检查原发性肾病综合征患者的肾脏无异常时预后良好 ,而肾脏缩小越明显 ,肾皮质回声越强 ,则预后越差。

脑梗死患者血浆神经肽Y、降钙素基因相关肽、神经降压素、胃动素动态变化及其临床意义

观察脑梗死(CI)患者神经肽Y(NPY)、神经降压素(NT)、胃动素(MTL)、降钙素基因 相关肽(CGRP)浓度变化及其临床意义。方法选择C162例,用放免法检测血浆NPY、NT、MTL与CGRP浓度。结果NPY、NT与MTL浓度显著高于对照组(P<0.0001);于发病后24h内显著升高,7d内达高峰,8～15d开始下降,15d后仍在较高水平。NPY浓度重型与大灶组显著高于轻型(P<0.05)与小灶组(P<0.01);发病积分≥6分组显著高于<6分组(P<0.05);高血压组显著高于正常血压组(P<0.05)。NT与MTL浓度重型组显著高于中(P<0.05)、轻型组(P<0.01);高血糖组显著高于正常血糖组(P<O.01)。CGRP浓度显著低于对照组(P<0.0001),发病24h内即显著降低,2～7d进一步降低,8～15d开始升高,15d后逐渐升至正常水平。重型与大灶组显著高于轻型(P<0.0001)、中型(P<0.01)与小灶组(P<0.01);伴发病积分≥6分组显著低于<6分组(P<0.05)。结论CI患者NPY、NT、MTL、CGRP浓度变化以7d内最显著,15d后逐渐恢复正常水平;四种浓度监测可作为判断CI患者病情严重程度、病灶大小及伴发病的实验室指标。

Off-clamp Retroperitoneoscopic Tumour Evacuation for Sporadic Renal Angiomyolipomas with High RENAL Nephrometry Scores: A Novel Surgical Technique and Its Outcomes

BackgroundPartial nephrectomy or angioembolisation is commonly used for sporadic renal angiomyolipomas (RAMLs) with high RENAL scores, but there is a risk of reduced renal function, postoperative complications, and recurrence.ObjectiveTo describe a new technique for off-clamp laparoscopic evacuation of sporadic RAMLs with high RENAL scores that promotes maximal renal function maintenance and low postoperative complication and lesion recurrence rates.Design, setting, and participantsA retrospective cohort of patients undergoing off-clamp laparoscopic evacuation for sporadic RAMLs with RENAL scores ≥9 from January 2013 to June 2018 was included.Surgical procedureWe highlighted the curettage, suction, packing, and binding (CSPB) technique, a new off-clamp retroperitoneoscopic evacuation technique for sporadic RAMLs.MeasurementsDemographics, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative outcomes were assessed.Results and limitationsA total of 141 cases were included. The median (interquartile range [IQR]) tumour size was 7 (6.2–8.2) cm. The median (IQR) RENAL score was 10 (9–11). The median (IQR) operative time was 80 (65–125) min, with a median (IQR) estimated blood loss of 130 (90–362.5) ml. Conversion to neither open surgery nor standard laparoscopy occurred. The warm ischaemia time was zero for all cases. Postoperatively, 13 minor complications (Clavien grade 1) were recorded. No blood transfusions were reported. The glomerular filtration rate did not change significantly from preoperative period to 12-mo follow-up. Recurrence did not occur at the median follow-up period of 48 (36–60) mo. The retrospective design and lack of a control group are limitations of this study.ConclusionsOff-clamp retroperitoneoscopic tumour evacuation using the CSPB technique is feasible, safe, and effective for treating complex sporadic RAMLs.Patient summaryWe report a curettage, suction, packing, and binding technique for off-clamp retroperitoneoscopic evacuation of sporadic renal angiomyolipomas that leads to complete lesion clearance, excellent renal function preservation, and minimal perioperative complications.
