RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the clinical features and treatment options of ossifying fibroma of paranasal sinuses.@*METHOD@#A retrospective evaluation of twenty-three patients with ossifying fibroma of paranasal sinuses was presented. The choice of surgical operations on ossifying fibroma of paranasal sinuses was mainly decided by the location and area of ossifying fibroma. Radical operations were performed in twenty-one patients, ten of them through a lateral rhinotomy approach, eight through nasal endoscopic approach, four through Caldwell-Luc approach, one through coronal approach.@*RESULT@#Two patients were performed partial resection by nasal endoscopic surgery. Diagnoses of all cases were confirmed by pathology. All patients outcomes were successful, no serious complication from the surgical technique occurred. Twenty cases were followed-up for six months to nineteen years. Two patients recurred.@*CONCLUSION@#Earlier diagnosis, CT scan, proper surgery, and radical resection are the keys to the treatment of ossifying fibroma of paranasal sinuses.

OBJECTIVE@#To compare the side effects of intensity modulated radiotherapy(IMRT) and conventional radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.@*METHOD@#Sixty nine cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma were random selected by stages,with 32 cases in IMRT group and 37 cases in conventional radiotherapy group. The target areas in IMRT group were nasopharyngeal carcinoma, parapharyngeal space and neck lymphatic area with the fractional dose of 2.00-2.12 Gy per time, for 33-35 times. The cases in conventional radiotherapy group were given facio-cervical field radiation, DT 40-60 Gy per time, for 20-30 times. The reinforcing dosage in lateral facial field increased to DT 70 Gy in the nasopharyngeal area. The prophylactic irradiation dose of the neck was DT 50-55 Gy.@*RESULT@#The incidence of dry mouth one year after radiotherapy in the IMRT and conventional radiotherapy groups were 9.38% (3/32) and 94.59% (35/37) respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01). The incidence of difficulty in opening mouth in the IMRT and conventional radiotherapy groups were 6.25% (2/32) and 72.97% (27/37) respectively, with a significant difference between the two groups(P < 0.01).@*CONCLUSION@#Compared with the conventional radiotherapy, IMRT may improve the control rate and obviously de creases the side effects. It could be recommended for the radiotherapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

To observe the erythrocyte fragility and morphological changes of erythrocytes caused by roller pump. Ten tests were divided into two groups, Polystan pediatric pump group A (n = 5) and COBE pump group B (n = 5). Ten whole blood samples (each 400 ml) were circulated in the roller pump for 16 h. Erythrocyte fragility and free hemoglobin were measured before pumping and at every 2 hours during pumping. The possible morphological changes of erythrocytes caused by roller pump were observed by scanning electron microscope. The electron microscopic observation was made before pumping and at every 4 hours throughout pumping. Results showed that the erythrocyte fragility of two groups was not increased during a long period of pumping. The number of acanthocytes of two groups was 1.77/1.81% in the samples before pumping and 6.12/7.13, 9.18/8.73, 13.21/12.89, 16.53/17.21% at 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, and 16 h respectively. The free hemoglobin level of two groups was increased linearly during a long duration of pumping and the index of hemolysis of two groups was 0.296 mg/L/h and 0.3993 mg/L/h respectively. The result shows: 1. the erythrocyte fragility was not increased during a long period of pumping; 2. the erythrocyte membrane was injured or broken by roller pump directly; 3. the morphological changes of erythrocytes would be the basis of post operative hemolysis.
