The most common symptoms were upper abdominal pain and upper abdominal dis-com fort,which appeared in20casesand17casesrespectively,an d the most common sign was abdominal masses.B-ultrasound and CT are the most commonly used means for preoperative examination,with posit ive rates of97.8%and100%respectively.Op-e rative mortality was2%.Five-year survival rate of radical surgery of maligna nt cases was75%.Immuno-histological examinations showed that tumors rich i n multi-peptide linked hormones,neuron-specific eno-lase and chromaffin were in65%cases,90.6%and73.3% respectively.The positive rates of insulin,glucagons,somatostatin,pancreat ic polypeptide,gastrin and vasoactive intestinal peptide were68.2% ,51.2%,42.9%,40% ,25%and15.8%respectively.Conclusion.Nonfuncti onal islet cell tumors lack diagnostic specificity.Ultrasound and CT are primar y examination methods.Immunohistological analysis indicates different hormones ,but lacks the presence of related clinical symptoms.Surgery is an effective treatment for nonfunctional islet cell tumors,and even for those with distal m etastasis,immediate surgical removal and treatment can improve prognosis.展开更多

The origin of plasmacytoma cells has not been clarified, but a number of studies have suggested the possibility that it originates from the meninges and reticular cells of the Virchow-Robin space. Other studies have suggested that plasmacytoma cells may possibly arise from original reticular and stem cells.展开更多
