草酸铂联合卡培他滨方案治疗食管癌转移瘤的疗效观察

目的:探讨应用草酸铂(L-OHP)与卡培他滨联合方案治疗食管癌转移瘤患者的疗效及安全性,并随访观察中位至疾病进展时间和中位总生存时间。方法:48例食管癌转移瘤患者使用草酸铂130mg/m2,静脉滴注,第1天;卡培他滨1000mg/m2口服,每日2次,第1-14天;每3周为一个周期,至少应用2周期,评价疗效和毒性,并进行随访。结果:48例患者疗效均可评价,完全缓解(CR)2例(4.2%),部分缓解(PR)16例(33.3%),稳定(SD)23例(47.9%),进展(PD)7例(14.6%)。有效率(CR+PR)为37.5%。中位无进展生存期4.5个月,中位生存期8个月。化疗中主要毒副反应为骨髓抑制、消化道反应、神经毒性等。结论:草酸铂联合卡培他滨治疗食管癌转移瘤疗效肯定,毒副反应能耐受,值得进一步研究。

Multiple von Meyenburg complexes mimicking diffuse liver metastases from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Von Meyenburg complexes are benign liver lesions consisting of adenomatous bile duct proliferates. We present two patients suffering from esophageal cancer accompanied by the occurrence of yon Meyenburg complexes. Preoperative computerized tomography （CT） of the liver had not shown these lesions. In one of the patients, diffuse nodular manifestation was found in both liver lobes, mimicking diffuse hepatic metastases. Intraoperative frozen section revealed the benign nature of the lesions in both cases. The patients underwent esophageal resection without complications. To the best of our knowledge, the coincidence of von Meyenburg complexes and esophageal cancer has never been reported before. This uncommon entity should be taken into consideration as a differential diagnosis of liver lesions in malignancies. It underlines the importance of intraoperative frozen section for liver lesions of unknown origin.
