原发性淀粉样变五例临床分析

目的：提高对原发性淀粉样样变的认识,方法：分析5例原发性淀粉样变的临床表现和实验室检查,结果：5例肾脏受累,4例心脏受累,3例肝肿大。结论：原发性淀粉样变临床表现多样化,大多为非特异性,易误诊,确诊靠病理活检,遇到肝脾肿大及肾功能不全等多系统损害的病人,应想到原发性淀粉样变。     

脾动脉部分栓塞与脾切除治疗脾功能亢进症的疗效比较

目的通过对脾动脉部分栓塞和脾切除治疗脾大伴脾功能亢进症的疗效及并发症分析,探讨两种方法治疗脾功能亢进的优越性。方法回顾分析35例行脾动脉部分栓塞和24例行脾切除治疗的脾功能亢进患者的临床资料,将两种方法治疗后的外周血液成份（血红蛋白,白细胞,血小板）改变及并发症等进行对比分析。结果两种方法近期均能有效治疗脾功能亢进,可明显改善血小板和白细胞计数（P〈0.01）。脾切除组对血小板和白细胞的改善优于部分脾动脉栓塞组（P〈0.01）。脾动脉部分栓塞组术后并发症较脾切除组多,而脾切除组手术适应症要求较高。结论两种方法均能有效治疗脾脏功能亢进,应根据患者情况选择适合的治疗方式。     

巨脾大部切除后残脾红髓笔毛微动脉超微结构的变化

目的 :观察门静脉高压巨脾大部切除后残脾红髓笔毛微动脉(PA)超微结构的变化,探讨高血流动力对脾小血管内皮细胞超微结构的影响。方法:选取门静脉高压脾肿大患者13例,术后切取脾组织为巨脾组,术后8年穿刺获取脾组织为残脾组,另设外伤性脾组织13例为正常组。采用透射电镜观察脾脏红髓PA内皮细胞的超微结构改变。结果:巨脾组PA内皮细胞细胞核结构完整,染色质分布正常,一部分线粒体肿胀,变大变圆,基质变浅,线粒体嵴变短变少,甚至消失;一部分线粒体扁平嵴变成烧瓶状,甚至空泡状,基质致密,出现髓样变。残脾组PA内皮细胞核结构完整,染色质分布正常,线粒体基质均匀,嵴断裂减少,未见空泡样变和髓样变。正常组PA内皮细胞细胞核结构完整,染色质分布正常,线粒体嵴片状排列,外膜连续,基质均匀,连续内膜中可见包裹。结论:巨脾大部切除术可减少残脾血管PA增生,逆转PA内皮细胞线粒体的变化。

Enzymhistochemische,histometrische und ultrastrukturelle Untersuchungen von Milzen bei der Vinylchlorid-Krankheit

Zusammenfassung Durch histometrische, enzymhistochemische und elektronenmikroskopische Untersuchungen konnte nachgewiesen werden, da\ die pathologischen MilzverÄnderungen bei der Vinylchlorid-Krankheit nicht durch hepatisch bedingte Pfortaderdruckerhöhung verursacht werden, sondern auf einer Gewebsalteration durch das Vinylchlorid oder dessen Metabolite beruhen. Dabei sind vor allem die faserbildenden Zellen der Milz beteiligt. Faserassoziierte Reticulumzellen in der roten Pulpa und fibroblastische Reticulumzellen in der wei\en Pulpa werden zu übermÄ\iger Bindegewebsneubildung stimuliert. Hierdurch kommt es in der roten Pulpa zur bindegewebigen Verödung der FiltrationsrÄume mit einer Reduzierung der Pulpastrangmakrophagen und in der wei\en Pulpa zu einer Vernarbung der periarteriellen Lymphscheiden. Die Folgen dieser Fibrosierungsprozesse sind charakteristische VerÄnderungen in der quantitativen Zusammensetzung der Gewebskomponenten, die sich deutlich von denjenigen in Milzen bei Lebercirrhose und Milzvenenthrombose unterscheiden.

Enzyme histochemical, histometrical and ultrastructural studies of spleens in vinylchloride-disease

Summary By means of histometric, enzyme histochemical, and electron microscopic investigations it was demonstrated that the pathological changes in the spleen in vinylchloride-disease are primary. Fibroblastic cells are the only specific splenic cells involved. Fibre-associated reticulum cells of the red pulp and fibroblastic reticulum cells in white pulp are stimulated to produce excessive amounts of the extracellular elements of connective tissue, especially collagen fibrils. The newly formed connective tissue causes obliteration of extracellular blood channels in the red pulp and thus a reduction in the number of pulp-cord macrophages, and scarring of the periarterial lymphatic sheaths. The results of this fibrosing process are characteristic quantitative changes in the splenic histologic structures. These changes are different from those structural alterations occuring in spleens following extrasplenic hemodynamic changes, such as thrombosis of the splenic veins or cirrhosis of the liver.

     

Severe thrombocytopenia before liver transplantation is associated with delayed recovery of thrombocytopenia regardless of donor type

AIM： To compare the recovery of thrombocytopenia and splenomegaly during long-term follow-up after liver transplantation in patients receiving a living donor transplant or a cadaveric donor transplant.
METHODS： This was a retrospective cohort study of 216 consecutive liver transplant patients who survived for 〉 6 mo after transplantation; 169 received a liver transplant from a living donor and 47 from a cadaveric donor. The platelet counts or spleen volumes were examined before transplant, i, 6, and 12 mo after transplant, and then annually until 5 years after transplant.
RESULTS： The mean follow-up period was 49 mo （range, 21-66）. Platelet counts increased continuously for 5 years after orthotopic liver transplant. The restoration of platelet counts after transplant was significantly slower in patients with severe pretransplant thrombocytopenia （〈 50000/μL） until 4 years after transplant （P = 0.005）. Donor type did not significantlyaffect the recovery of platelet count and spleen volume in either patient group. In multivariate analysis, pretransplant severe thrombocytopenia （〈 50000/μL） was an independent factor associated with sustained thrombocytopenia （P 〈 0.001, odds ratio 6.314; confidence interval, 2.828-14.095）. Thrombocytopenia reappeared after transplant in seven patients with portal flow disturbance near the anastomosis site.
CONCLUSION： Our study suggests that severe thrombocytopenia before transplant is closely associated with delayed recovery of platelet count after transplant and donor type did not affect the recovery of thrombocytopenia. The reappearance of thrombocytopenia after transplant should be considered a possible indicator of flow disturbance in the portal vein.     

TNF-dependent overexpression of CCL21 is an underlying cause of progressive lymphoaccumulation in generalized lymphoproliferative disorder

The human condition autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome and the murine mutation generalized lymphoproliferative disorder (gld/gld) are both caused by mutations of Fas or Fas ligand and are characterized by severe splenomegaly and lymphadenopathy. In the mouse, the additional absence of TNF attenuates the gld/gld syndrome through an unknown mechanism. We hypothesized that this unexpected outcome was not mediated by increased apoptosis but changes of T cell localization. We demonstrated that the homeostatic chemokine CCL21 is strongly up-regulated in the spleen of C57BL/6 (B6).gld/gld and B6.gld/gld.TRAIL-/- mice. In contrast, a distinct consequence of TNF deficiency in B6.gld/gld mice was the substantially reduced splenic production of CCL21. An analysis of the cognate chemokine receptor CCR7 showed a complete, age-dependent down-regulation of this receptor on B6.gld/gld conventional peripheral T cells that are therefore unable to react to this chemokine. These results demonstrate a new role for the pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF and the TNF-regulated chemokine CCL21 in the complex etiology of the autoimmune syndrome in B6.gld/gld mice.     

肝硬化充血性脾大伴脾功能力进行脾次全切除术后免疫功能观察

24例肝硬化充血性脾大伴脾功能亢进患者分脾次全切除和全脾切除组，对其手术前后的T淋巴细胞转化率、IgA、IgG、IgM进行了对比观察，发现脾次全切除，保留原脾组织6cm×5cm×4cm大小，能较好地维持各项免疫指标在正常范围。而全脾切除术后T淋巴细胞转化率、IgM、IgA呈持续下降，直至术后3个月仍处于最低值。认为脾次全切除，保留适当的残脾能较好地维持其免疫功能．     

Case report of rare chronic myelogenous leukemia related multibacterial splenic abscess presenting with scrotal swelling

INTRODUCTION

Splenic abscesses associated with leukemia are rare. Most reported cases of splenic abscesses occur after chemotherapy and are related to the immunosuppressive effects of the chemotherapy. Their etiology is most frequently fungal.

PRESENTATION OF CASE

A 58-year-old male presented with splenomegaly and scrotal swelling secondary to a multibacterial splenic abscess which required a splenectomy. Upon investigation he was found to suffer from chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and epididymitis.

DISCUSSION

Splenic abscesses are rarely found in leukemic patients. Reported cases are fungal and commonly occur after chemotherapy due to immunosuppression. Scrotal swelling with concurrent splenomegaly can be found in other pathologies including brucellosis, Lyme disease and even non-Hodgkin primary testicular lymphoma. Scrotal swelling in our case was likely secondary to epididymitis and exacerbated by the effects of splenomegaly upon the systemic circulation promoting venous congestion.

CONCLUSION

This case illustrated an unusual presentation of CML because the patient presented with splenomegaly, a multibacterial splenic abscess, and scrotal swelling.     

艾滋病患者抗逆转录病毒治疗后的超声影像学研究

目的应用超声影像学技术评估艾滋病(AIDS)患者抗逆转录病毒治疗后左室结构、功能以及腹腔脏器形态学的变化。方法应用超声心动图技术于41例AIDS患者(AIDS组)用药前基线状态、抗病毒用药48周及96周分别测量其心脏形态结构参数,同时应用腹部探头测量AIDS组及38例健康体检者(对照组)的肝脏、脾脏大小及门静脉内径。结果 AIDS组用药96周与用药前、用药48周比较,除左室流出道血流速度、二尖瓣口E峰减速时间均有所提高(P<0.05)外,其余各参数比较差异均无统计学意义;AIDS组用药前的脾脏肿大阳性率较对照组显著增加(χ2=10.94,P<0.05),用药前、用药48周及用药96周3个时间点间的脾脏肿大阳性率比较差异均无统计学意义。结论 AIDS患者脾脏肿大者明显多于健康成人,短期抗病毒治疗不会影响心脏结构功能,且不会加重AIDS患者的脾肿大程度,超声可准确评估抗病毒治疗后AIDS患者心脏结构功能及腹腔脏器形态学变化。
