Different kinetics of lung clearance of technetium-99m labelled diethylene triamine penta-acetic acid in patients with sarcoidosis and smokers

The rate of clearance from the lungs of inhaled technetium-99m labelled diethylene triamine penta-acetic acid (^99mTc-DTPA) is often increased in interstitial lung disease as well as in smoking. In smokers a bi-exponential clearance course of ⁹⁹mTc-DTPA when measured over 3 h has previously been shown. This study was performed to compare the kinetics of clearance of ^99mTc-DTPA, measured for 3 h, in sarcoid patients and healthy smokers. Forty-one never-smoking patients with sarcoidosis and radiological signs of intrathoracic disease were studied. The results were compared with those of 16 healthy current smokers and of 14 healthy never-smokers reported previously. A mono-exponential clearance equation described the clearance in 22 of the sarcoid patients and all normal never-smokers, but with a shorter average tracer half-life in the patients (P<0.05). In 19 patients and all smokers a bi-exponential equation gave a significantly better curve fit. The rate of clearance of the slow component was higher in patients with sarcoidosis than in smokers (P< 0.05). The fraction of the tracer cleared by the fast clearance component was smaller in patients with sarcoidosis than in smokers (P<0.01). Differences in kinetics of clearance of ^99mTc-DTPA in sarcoidosis and smoking could thus be demonstrated, suggesting that the abnormal clearance is caused by diverging pathophysiological mechanisms.

地塞米松对肺癌切除术病人血清过氧化脂质胰岛素皮质醇的影响

４０例肺癌切除术病人，随机分为对照（Ｓ）组和地塞米松（Ｓ－Ｄ）组，采用氯胺酮－安氟醚静吸复合麻醉，对血清中过氧化脂质、胰岛素和皮质醇进行了初步观察。结果表明，血清过氧化脂质Ｓ－Ｄ组于手术毕显著低于Ｓ组（Ｐ〈０．０５）；血清胰岛素两组间没有统计学差异；血清皮质醇Ｓ－Ｄ组于气管插管后显著高于Ｓ组（Ｐ〈０．０５）。作者认为肺癌切除术病人术前给地塞米松可有效地降低血清中过氧化脂质含量，利于维护脏器功能。     

猪尾导管连接化疗药盒实现肝脏肿瘤多重化疗的可行性研究

目的 探讨使用猪尾造影导管与单一化疗药盒连接实现肝脏肿瘤多重化疗的可行性及初步疗效。资料与方法 对30例晚期肝脏恶性肿瘤患者采用经股动脉穿刺、腹腔动脉内植入猪尾导管与皮下埋置药盒并序贯化疗，统计手术成功率、并发症及临床疗效。结果 30例手术全部成功，发生切口延迟愈合1例。术后随访28例，经影像学复查对比，病变缩小7例，稳定12例，进展9例。随访期间12例患者死亡，术后生存期42d-10个月，中位生存期6个月。另外16例患者至今存活，已达术后2-16个月。结论 采用猪尾造影导管置于腹腔动脉并与化疗药盒相连接，能够对晚期肝脏恶性肿瘤实现多重化疗，技术上简单可行，并发症少，初步疗效令人满意。     

Mixed dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor and ganglioglioma

We report a case of a 15-year-old girl with new onset seizures, who had a mixed dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNT) and ganglioglioma of the right parieto-occipital lobe. The tumor appeared well demarcated and exhibited a low T1 and a high T2 signal on magnetic resonance imaging. Architecturally it was in large part intracortical and multinodular, but also featured a leptomeningeal component. The former corresponded to DNT, a proliferation of oligodendroglia-like cells (OLCs) arranged in nodules, as well as comprising a diffuse internodular element featuring “floating neurons” in a mucoid matrix. The leptomeningeal portion of the lesion was a ganglioglioma consisting of large neurons and astrocytes in association with marked desmoplasia. Spacially, the two components abutted one another but appeared distinct. Immunohistochemistry showed the neurons of the ganglioglioma to be positive for class III β-tubulin, synaptophysin, and chromogranin A, whereas the astrocytic cells stained only for glial fibrillary acidic protein. Most OLCs in the DNT were positive for S-100 protein. This apparently mixed lesion suggests that a close histogenetic relationship exists between DNT and ganglioglioma. We postulate that the pluripotential progenitor cells residing in the subpial granular layer may have given rise to the cortical DNT and to the leptomeningeal ganglioglioma. To our knowledge, this is the first detailed histological, immunochemical and ultrastructural report of a mixed DNT and ganglioglioma.

彩色多普勒血流显像对肺良、恶性肿瘤鉴别诊断的应用

本文应用彩色多普勒血流显像技术对４０例肺肿瘤患者进行研究。全部病例均经手术及病理证实。结果表明：肺恶性肿瘤的内部及周边血流丰富，搏动指数（ＰＩ）和阻力指数（ＲＩ）低于肺良性肿瘤。因此，通过观察肺肿瘤的血流丰富程度及ＰＩ（界值＜１），ＲＩ（界值＜０．５）．可做为辨别肺恶性肿瘤的参考条件。

Benign trichogenic tumours: a report of two cases supporting a simplified nomenclature

We report two cases of a rare benign tumour of hair germ. Clinically, both were solitary, well-circumscribed, subcutaneous nodules located in the extremities. Histologically, the tumours were characterized by nests and thin cords of basaloid epithelial cells intimately associated with a cellular stroma. The basaloid cells exhibited peripheral palisading, keratinization in the form of keratotic cysts and squamoid transformation, and pilar differentiation. An unusual, but distinctive, cribriform pattern of growth was observed. There was no communication with the overlying epidermis. Abundant primitive hair germinal buds and rare more advanced abortive hair follicles were identified. These histological appearances encompass features of both trichoblastic fibroma and trichogenic trichoblastoma, thus distinguishing these neoplasms from other skin tumours and reinforcing the hypothesis that these tumours are closely related from a histogenetic point of view. The presence of overlapping histological features can be problematic for practising histopathologists who rarely encounter these conditions. With this in mind, the term benign trichogenic tumour may be more appropriate to encompass these two tumours and related neoplasms that appear to lie within the spectrum of hair follicle development.
