The experiences from operative treatment of 72 cases of old fractures of malar bones were reported. The techniques of the corrective procedure were introduced. Besides, the importance of the treatment of old malar fractures, the peculiarities of the displacement following malar fractures and the principles of its corrective treatment, and the residual flattening of the malar bone following reduction were discussed.
ObjectiveTo study on the first metastasis pattern and prognostic factors in patients with recurrent and metastatic breast cancer.MethodsThe study selected 147 patients with metastatic breast cancer who were diagnosed for the first time in the Breast Thyroid Center and Oncology Department, the People's Hospital of Wuhan University from June 2016 to June 2018. The model of first metastasis and the first diagnosis of prognosis may be affected. The age at diagnosis of breast cancer, tumor size, lymph node metastasis, hormone receptor status, HER-2 status, number of metastatic organs, tumor location, molecular typing, etc. were retrospective analyzedResultsThe most common metastatic sites for breast cancer was bone metastases in 55 patients (37.41%), followed by lung metastasis and liver metastases, 29 (19.73%) and 24 (16.33%), respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the number of lymph node metastasis, HER-2 status, organ number of first-time metastasis, and endocrine therapy were significant factors affecting metastatic survival time, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the number of lymph node metastasis, the number of metastatic organs and HER-2 were independent risk factors for advanced breast cancer (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe most common metastasis of breast cancer patients after surgery is bone, followed by lung metastasis and liver metastasis. The number of lymph node metastases, the number of metastatic organs, HER-2 status, and endocrine therapy are independent factors influencing the prognosis of patients with recurrent metastasis.

Methods: Sixty patientswith advanced gastric cancer were divided into two groups, all used with FOLFOXregimen, 21 days a cycle; twocycle assessment of treatment effect. The treatment group were treated with the FuFang Ku Shen Zhusheye plus treatment, a course of treatment for 14 days, the effect were evaluated after two courses. The clinical symptoms and living quality, toxicity were dynamically observed. Results: Both shortterm effect of comparison, the overall response rates of the treatment group and the control group were 433% and 400% (P>005); The rates of clinical symptoms of the treatment group and the controlgroup were 800% and 600% respectively (P<005); the rates of increasing of living quality were respectively 867% and 567% (P<005); the median survival time was 8 months and 5 months; the toxicity of the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P <005).Conclusion: Treating advanced gastric cancer by use of FuFang Ku Shen Zhusheye combination with chemotherapy is helpful to reducing the pain symptoms, promoting the clinical symptoms, reducing the chemotherapy side effects, improving quality of life and prolonging the survival time.
Objective
To explore value of multidisciplinary team (MDT) model in diagnosis and treatment of patients with advanced special thyroid cancer who lost chance of operation.
Method
Two patients with the advanced special thyroid cancer who lost chance of operation were treated by low dose apatinib (250 mg/d) after the MDT discussion.
Results
One medullary thyroid cancer patient with the compressing of the trachea for mediastinal metastatic lymphadenopathy and inability to lie down underwent the multiple surgical treatment, the therapeutic effect was poor. Then low dose apatinib (250 mg/d) was performed, the patient could supine, breathe smoothly, and move freely, whose life quality was obviously improved, the mediastinal lymph nodes reduced and no serious drug toxicity occurred on month 1 after the treatment. One undifferentiated thyroid cancer patient with the lung metastasis, hemoptysis, and tumor invasion resulted in the inability to lie down and having difficulty in breathing, these symptoms still existed and more pleural effusion occurred after the resection of the invaded trachea. Then low dose apatinib (250 mg/d) was performed, the patient could supine, the pleural effusion disappeared, the hemoptysis stopped, the breathing was smooth, and could do some minor housework, no drug toxicity occurred on month 1 after the treatment.
Conclusion
After MDT discussion, low dose apatinib in treatment of advanced special thyroid cancer is reliable and safe and has a good short-term effect, which could be used as a new remedy, but long-term effect should be further researched by increasing case samples and a long-term following-up.
Objective To formulate an evidence-based treatment plan for a patient with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods The clinical problems were put forward after full evaluation of patient’s conditions, and then the evidence related to the diagnosis and treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma was collected from The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2010), PubMed (1980 to 2010), Embase (1990 to 2010) and Wanfang Data (1990 to 2010). All the collected evidence was critically assessed. Both patient preferences and physician clinical experience were also taken into consideration in the decision-making treatment. Results A total of 153 relevant literatures were detected, and 13 meta-analyses or systematic reviews, 23 RCTs and 4 practice guidelines were identified. A rational treatment plan was made upon a serious evaluation of the data and the opinion of the patient. After a 6-month follow-up, the plan proved to be optimal. Conclusion The individualized treatment plan according to evidence-based methods for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma can effectively improve the therapeutic efficacy and the life quality.
ObjectiveTo compare the clinical effects of continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion chemotherapy (CHPPC) and intravenous chemotherapy for advanced gastric cancer patients, and find better nursing methods.
MethodsSixty advanced gastric cancer patients who underwent chemotherapy between June 2013 and June 2014 were divided into CHPPC group (group C, n=30) and intravenous chemotherapy group (group V, n=30). We recorded the nursing methods for both the two groups, patients' satisfaction to the nursing and treatment, peritoneal metastasis rate and quality of life during the chemotherapy.
ResultsThe life quality in group V was lower than that in group C (P<0.05). The differences in patients' satisfaction rate, peritoneal metastasis rate, and one-year survival rate were not significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05).
ConclusionFor patients with advanced gastric cancer requiring chemotherapy, in spite of higher cost and more complicated operations, CHPPC is superior in lower adverse events rate, better quality of life during chemotherapy and doesn't decrease patients' satisfaction to the nursing and treatment.
Evidence has been retrieved through MEDLINE and Cochrane Libray about the treatment for patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease who suffered from on-off, dyskinesia and depression after chronic use of L-dopa. All of the evidence has been evaluated. Methods of evidence-based treatment were drawn up according to the evidence, clinciams’ experiences and patients’ preferences. All symptoms of the patient have been improved obviously.
Objective To identify the best therapy regime for dyspnea in an end-stage cancer patient.Method We searched The Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2006), SUMsearch (1978 to 2006) and MEDLINE (1978 to 2006), and identified 4 systematic reviews and 28 randomised controlled trials. We critically assessed the quality of these studies. Result Evidence supported the use of breathing exercise, desensitisation, oral or parenteral opioids and antianxiety drugs to pall iate breathlessness. Patients with hypoxemia were found to benefit from oxygen therapy. Conclusions Physiotherapy, psychotherapy, oxygen therapy, opioids and antianxiety drugs can be considered in treating cancer patients with dyspnea.
