[Reconstruction of trachea, carina and bronchus for tumors of the trachea, carina and lung].
This paper reports on 70 patients with tumors of the trachea, bronchus and lung treated by reconstruction of the trachea, carina and the main bronchus (21 cases) and sleeve lobectomy (49 cases). Postoperatively, 2 patients died of tracheo-innominate artery fistula and 2 developed empyema which was healed. ⋯ The 3- and 5-year survival rates of the cancer patients treated by reconstruction of trachea, carina and main bronchus were 54.5%(6/11) and 33.3%(3/9), respectively. The 3- and 5-year survival rates of lung cancer patients treated by sleeve lobectomy were 46.6% (14/30) and 33.3% (7/21), respectively.

Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial[Anti-emetic effect of ondansetron in cisplatin induced nausea and vomiting--a randomized clinical trial].
The anti-emetic effect of ondansetron in cisplatin induced nausea and vomiting was studied in a randomized cross-over trial in 52 patients. The dose of cisplatin was 80-120 mg/M2 iv drip given in 1-3 days. The patients randomly received ondansetron or our routine anti-emetic regimen in the first cycle of chemotherapy. ⋯ The mean frequency of vomiting were 1.3 times in ondansetron and 8.0 times in the routine regimen (P less than 0.01). Control of delayed emesis was comparable in the two arms. No patient had neurological symptoms in the ondansetron group whereas 4 patients in the routine group had extrapyramidal symptoms.

[Gastric mucosal lesions and their transition rates in high risk population of gastric cancer].
Endoscopic and pathologic examinations were conducted in a randomly chosen population in a high risk area of gastric cancer, Linqu County, Shandong Province. A high prevalence of chronic atrophic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia was found. ⋯ The study indicates that gastric precancerous lesions are related to malignant changes implying that gastric cancer develops on the damaged gastric mucosa. It is also shown that the progression from chronic atrophic gastritis to dysplasia may take an average of 20 years.

[Roentgeno-pathologic studies of peripheral pulmonary carcinoma].
122 patients with solitary pulmonary nodular lesions less than 3 cm in diameter admitted to our hospital from 1974 to 1985 are analysed. All lesions were negative by sputum exfoliative cytology and fiberoptic bronchoscopy. As lung cancer could not be excluded, exploratory thoracotomy was performed. ⋯ As there were different histologic types in solitary peripheral pulmonary carcinoma, their pathologic processes were different. Therefore, the radiologic features were also different. Different points of the radiologic manifestations might be helpful to differentiate different histologic types of pulmonary carcinoma and increase the diagnostic accuracy for early pulmonary carcinoma.

[Pyometra and radiotherapy of cancer of the uterine cervix--analysis of 282 patients].
From March 1958 to December 1980, 11284 patients with cancer of uterine cervix were treated with radiotherapy in our hospital. Among them, 282 were complicated with pyometra with an incidence of 2.5%. The incidence of pyometra was higher in patients treated by combined intracavitary with external irradiation than by other radiation methods. 74.1% was diagnosed during the manipulation of intracavitary therapy. ⋯ Endometrial biopsy positive rate reached to 77.8% in the patients whose pyometra was not cured or occurred after radiotherapy. This is the main reason of the poor prognosis. The authors believe that endometrial and cervical biopsy should be taken for cancer of uterine cervix complicated with pyometra; for biopsy positive patients during the treatment, the intracavitary dose should be increased; for positive patients after radiotherapy, operation is strongly indicated.
