METHODS The clinical, laboratory, imaging data and pathological findings and therapeutic efficacy of 31 cases with pathologically proved PCNSL, during a period from July 1995 to June 2006, were analyzed retrospectively. The method of surgery, used in combination with chemotherapy and radiotherapy, was evaluated in 18 cases versus a simple surgical procedure used in 5. Among the total cases, a CHOP regimen was employed in 11 and Teniposide (VM26) plus Semustine (me-CCUN) was used in 7 cases. RESULTS PCNSL had a variety of clinical features, so that its misdiagnosis rate was high. The main clinical findings of PCNSL included intracranial hypertension and (focal) neurologic impairment. No positive result was found in the CSF cellular examination. All of the 31 cases were B-cell lymphoma. Twenty-four of the 31 cases were followed-up, with a follow-up period from 6 to 98 months. The median period of survival of the group who underwent surgery in combination with chemotherapy and radiotherapy was 20 months, while the group with simple surgical therapy was 10 months. CONCLUSION Specific clinical manifestations were usually absent in the patients with PCNSL, giving an uncertain preoperative diagnosis and a poor prognosis. Pathological examination is the only reliable method for a final diagnosis of the disease. The main objective of surgical therapy is to relieve the intracranial hypertension caused by the tumor. Recurrence may occur in a short period following the simple operation. Therefore combined therapy, i.e. surgery plus additional radiotherapy and chemotherapy, should be adopted. This is the key point for extending survival time and improving the quality of life.展开更多

Methods: Patients with duodenal protruding lesions who were indicated for PUS were examined by PUS with 12-15 MHz miniature ultrasonic probes and double-cavity electronic endoscope. According to diagnosis of PUS, those patients were indicated for biopsy and treatment received biopsy, endoscopic resection or surgical excision. The postoperative histological results were compared with the preoperative diagnosis of PUS. Those patients without endoscopic resection or surgical excision were periodically followed up with PUS. Results: A total of 169 patients with duodenal protruding lesions were examined by PUS, of which 40 were diagnosed with cysts, 36 with inflammatory protruding or polyp, 25 with Brunner's gland adenoma, 19 with ectopic pancreas, 17 with gastrointestinal stromal tumor, 12 with extrinsic compression, 12 with minor papilla, 6 with lipoma, 1 with adenocarcinoma and 1 with lymphoma. After PUS examinations, 75 patients received biopsy, endoscopic resection or surgical excision respectively. The postoperative histological results of 70 patients were completely consistent with the preoperative diagnosis of PUS, with 93.33% diagnostic accuracy. The results of follow-up with PUS indicated that duodenal cyst, Brunner's gland adenoma, ectopic pancreas, gastrointestinal stromal tumor and lipoma remained unchanged within 1-3 years. No related complications occurred among all patients that received PUS examinations. Conclusion: PUS is an effective and reliable diagnostic method for duodenal protruding lesions.展开更多
