卵巢未成熟畸胎瘤43例综合治疗疗效分析

为探讨不同手术方式及化疗方法对卵巢未成熟畸胎瘤的疗效及相关影响因素，对43例卵巢未成熟畸胎瘤患者进行回顾性分析。手术方式分为：保守性手术（患侧附件、大网膜切除术＋盆、腹腔腹膜结节切除术＋盆腔淋巴结清扫术）及根治性手术（全子宫、双附件及大网膜切除术＿肿瘤细胞减灭术＋盆腔淋巴结清扫术）。术后采用VAC（长春新碱，阿霉素，环磷酰胺）方案、BEP（博莱霉素或平阳霉素，足叶乙叉甙，顺铂或卡铂）方案或VBP（长春新碱，博莱霉素或平阳霉素，顺铂或卡铂）方案进行联合化疗。患者5年生存率根治性手术为44．4％，保守性手术为64．0％，差异无显著性。VAC方案与BEP（或VBP）方案的5年生存率分别为33．3％和77．3％（P＜0．01）。疗程数≥4患者的5年生存率为73．9％，明显高于疗程数＜4患者的38．9％（P＜0．05）。认为对于有生育要求的卵巢未成熟畸胎瘤患者，可仅行保守性手术，术后辅以联合化疗。BEP（或VBP）方案对患者长期生存率的改善明显优于VAC方案。术后化疗的疗程数与疗效有关，对长期生存率的影响较明显。     

绝经前后T1期乳腺癌患者临床特征的分析

目的:分析T1期(肿瘤直径<2cm)原发性乳腺癌女性患者绝经前后在肿瘤大小、病理分类、淋巴结转移率和数目。方法:常规病理检验以及应用免疫组化、HE法分别测定绝经前乳腺癌患者和绝经后乳腺癌患者者的ER、PR。结果:两组患者在肿瘤大小上无明显差异,但绝经前乳腺癌患者浸润导管癌的百分比为 84. 7%,绝经后乳腺癌患者的浸润导管癌百分比为 62. 2%,经χ2 检验,P<0. 01。两组淋巴结转移率分别为 39. 3%和 25. 5%,经χ2 检验,P<0. 01。两组ER和PR阳性伴淋巴结转移的比例经χ2 检验,P<0. 05。结论:绝经前乳腺癌患者和绝经后乳腺癌患者在病理分类、淋巴结转移率及数目、ER、PR阳性伴淋巴结转移上有显著性差异。对于T1原发性乳腺癌患者不论有无淋巴结转移,均应行癌肿切除伴Ⅰ、Ⅱ级淋巴结清扫。     

手术治疗125例分化性甲状腺癌的5年随访结果分析

目的：探讨甲状腺全切除术在治疗分化性甲状腺癌中的临床应用价值。方法：采用我院1988年1月～2001年5月甲状腺全切除术或甲状腺侧叶切除加峡部切除术治疗分化性甲状腺癌125例,对其手术并发症发生、局部复发、转移情况及术后5年生存率进行回顾性对比分析。结果：甲状腺全切除术术后并发症发生率高于甲状腺侧叶切除加峡部切除术组;局部复发、转移率低于侧叶切除加峡部切除术组;5年生存率两组无显著性差异。结论：甲状腺全切除术是治疗甲状腺癌有效的手术方式,但应掌握手术指征,改进、提高手术技术,减少并发症。     

Adjuvant radiotherapy in carcinomas of the uterine cervix: the prognostic value of hemoglobin levels

Anemia has been associated with a poorer treatment response and reduced survival in women undergoing primary radiotherapy (RT) or radiochemotherapy for advanced cervical carcinoma. This study aimed to determine the influence of anemia on outcome in patients with cervical carcinoma undergoing adjuvant RT. Medical records were reviewed for 183 cervical cancer patients who had received adjuvant RT because of risk factors after radical surgery (n= 109) or inadequate primary surgery (simple hysterectomy; n= 74). Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to study hemoglobin levels before and during adjuvant RT in relation to recurrence-free and overall survival. Hemoglobin values > or =11 g/dL were considered normal, while those <11 g/dL indicated anemia. Hemoglobin levels before RT influenced significantly overall survival and recurrence-free survival across the whole group (overall survival--log rank(all patients)= 7.5; df = 1; P= 0.006). However, subgroup analysis showed that the observed difference was mainly due to the group of women who had undergone inadequate primary surgery (overall survival--log rank(inadequate surgery)= 10.8; df = 1; P= 0.001). Multifactorial regression analyses comparing hemoglobin before RT with grading and tumor stage confirmed the prognostic value of hemoglobin values. Maintaining normal hemoglobin values before and during adjuvant RT seems to be important, especially in patients who have had inappropriate simple hysterectomy, which may resemble a therapeutic situation.     

On the natural course of oral lichen lesions in a Swedish population-based sample

OBJECTIVES: The aim was to assess the natural course of oral lichen lesions (OLL) among unselected, non-consulting individuals. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A cohort of 327 subjects with OLL, confirmed in 1973-1974 during a population-based survey in two Swedish municipalities, was followed through January 2002 via record linkages with nationwide and essentially complete registers. A sample of 80 drawn from the 194 surviving subjects who still resided in the area in 1993-1995 was invited for interview and oral re-examination. RESULTS: At the end of follow-up, one case of oral cancer was detected, while 0.4 were expected. The overall mortality among subjects with OLL was not significantly different from that in the 15,817 OLL-free subjects who participated in the initial population based survey in 1973-1974. The lesion had disappeared in 14 (39%) of 36 re-examined subjects with white OLLs in 1973-1974, and four (11%) had transformed into red types. In the corresponding group of 19 with red forms initially, five (26%) had become lesion free and four (21%) had switched to white types. Although the cohort size does not permit firm conclusions regarding oral cancer risk, the natural course over up to 30 years appears to be benign in the great majority.     

Special needs of adolescent and young women in accessing reproductive health: promoting partnerships between young people and health care providers.

This article considers the unique challenges and opportunities that health care providers (HCPs) face when they address the sexual and reproductive health and rights of young women accessing services. Some of the difficulties that HCPs encounter in their work are highlighted, including poor remuneration, the impact of their personal biases and the effect of an under-equipped working environment. The financial, logistical and emotional challenges young people face in accessing services are also described, as well as some small changes that could promote fruitful partnerships between HCPs and their young clientele. Also considered is how international documents concerning reproductive health can be utilized as advocacy tools to ensure that, when governments speak of making young people's needs a priority, resources are also made a priority-so that reproductive health can become a reality for all young people.
