Abstract
BACKGROUND Diaphanous-related formins (DRFs), actin necleator, have been known to participate in the progression of cancer cells. We previously reported that FMNL2 (Formin-like2), a member of DRFs, was a positive regulator in colorectal cancer (CRC) metastasis, yet proteins and pathways required for the function of this pro-invasive DRFs remain to be identified. METHODS The relationship between FMNL2 and COMMD10 was examined using Co-IP, GST pull-down, immunofluorescence and in vitro ubiquitination assay. The in vitro and in vivo function of COMMD10 in CRC was evaluated using CCK-8 proliferation assay, plate colony formation, cell cycle, apoptosis and animal models. The inhibition of NF-κB signalling by COMMD10 was detected using dual-luciferase reporter assay and western blotting. Co-IP, GST pull-down and nuclear protein extraction assay were performed to evaluate the effect on p65 by COMMD10. Real-time PCR and western blotting were performed to detect expressions of FMNL2, COMMD10 and p65 in paired tissues. RESULTS FMNL2 targets COMMD10 for ubiquitin-mediated proteasome degradation in CRC cells. COMMD10 targets p65 NF-κB (nuclear factor-κB) subunit and reduces its nuclear translocation, thereby leading to the inactivation of NF-κB pathway and suppression of CRC invasion and metastasis. Inhibition of NF-κB signalling by COMMD10 is necessary for FMNL2-mediated CRC cell behaviours. Downregulation of COMMD10 predicts poor prognosis of CRC patients. The expressions of FMNL2, COMMD10 and p65 are highly linked in CRC tissues. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that the FMNL2/COMMD10/p65 axis acts as a critical regulator in the maintenance of metastatic phenotypes and is strongly associated with negative clinical outcomes.

Abstract
To study the value of lung ultrasound score (LUS) in assessing the clinical outcome of patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP). A total of 99 VAP patients were enrolled in a prospective study. All patients met the diagnostic criterion of VAP based on the 2013 guidelines and admitted into our ICU from Jun 2013 to Jun 2015. All parameters were recorded on the diagnostic day (day 1) and day 5, including LUS, clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS), chest X ray (CXR), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(SOFA) score, etc. According to the CPIS, patients were divided into 2 groups(CPIS less than 6 and more or equal to 6). CPIS and LUS were similar on day 1 between two groups (P>0.05). However, on day 5, significant differences of CPIS and LUS were found between groups with CPIS<6 and CPIS≥6 (P=0.019 and P<0.001 respectively). LUS decreased on day 5 in CPIS<6 group and increased in CPIS≥6 group. In CPIS<6 group, there was a positive correlation between LUS and CPIS on day 1(r=0.375, P=0.003) and day 5 (r=0.590, P<0.001). CPIS≥6 groupshowed the same trend on day 1 (r=0.484, P=0.002) and day 5 (r=0.407, P=0.011). LUS can be used to dynamically evaluate the clinical outcome of VAP.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Milestone studies showed that ultrasound (US) was an effective primary screening test for breast cancer both in the western world and in China [PMID: 26712110, 26715161, and 25668012]. Ultrasound has been officially designated to be the initial imaging test for breast cancer screening in Beijing and several other cities in China, due to its improved sensitivity in Chinese women who usually have denser breasts and develop breast cancer earlier than Caucasian counterparts. Study showed that it would take 40 years to screen each woman in the target age group once [PMID: 26808342].The mainstay modality of breast cancer screening in China is the hospital-based opportunistic screening among asymptomatic self-referred women. However, there is little data about the tumor biology and long-term survival of the US-detected non-palpable breast cancer (NPBC) in hospital-based Chinese population.
Methods: From January 2001 to December 2014, 3,786 asymptomatic women with positive (BI-RADS 4 and 5) initial screening US underwent biopsies in Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and 572 NPBC in 556 women were diagnosed. Women without dense breasts (defined as BI-RADS category C and D) also received screening mammography (MG) after physical examination and ultrasound. 788 patients with positive (BI-RADS 4 and 5) mammogram (MG) and normal US (BI-RADS 1, 2 and 3) underwent MG-guided biopsies and another 127 NPBC were diagnosed in 126 women. The clinicopathological features, treatment choice, 10-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were reviewed and compared between the US-detected and MG-detected NPBC. Prognostic factors of NPBC were identified.
Results: Overall, US could detect more invasive NPBC (83.4% vs 54.3%, p<0.001), lymph node positive cancer (19.1% vs 10.2%, p<0.001)and multifocal cancer (19.2% vs 6.3%, p<0.001). In invasive NPBC, US detected more low grade cancer (21.4% vs 10.2%, p=0.001), multifocal cancer (20.7% vs 2.9%, p<0.001), Her2 negative cancer (77.6% vs 62.3%, p=0.001) and larger tumor (pT1c+pT2, 53.3% vs 37.6%, p<0.001). There was no significant difference in immunophenotype/subtype, treatment methods, DFS or OS between US- and MG-NPBC among ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), invasive and all NPBC. For all NPBC and the US-NPBC, the common DFS-factors included pT, pN and p53 whereas OS-predictors were pN and immunophenotype/subtype.

Conclusion: Compared to MG, US detected more invasive NPBC with positive lymph node in hospital-based asymptomatic self-referred Chinese women, who could achieve comparable 10-year DFS and OS as MG-detected NPBC. US could serve as the feasible initial imaging modality in hospital-based opportunistic screening Chinese women.

Abstract
Objective To assess the effectiveness of locking compress plate and extra cortical bone bridge fixation for treating atrophic humeral nonunion. Methods Seventeen patients with atrophic humeral nonuninon were treated with locking compress plate and extra cortical bone bridge fixation between November 2006 and June 2015. Of 17 cases, 11 were male, 6 were female, aged 24-63 years (mean, 38.2 years). Fracture located at the left side in 9 cases and at the right side in 8 cases. The mechanism of injury was traffic accident in 13 cases, falling from height in 3 cases, and heavy pound injury in 1 case. The patients underwent surgery for 1 time in 7 cases, for 2 times in 5 cases, for 3 times in 4 cases, and for 4 times in 1 case. The time from fracture to hospitalization was 10-76 months (mean, 22.6 months). The shoulder function was evaluated by Neer score, and elbow function by Mayo score. Results All incisions healed by first intention. Two cases had transient radial nerve symptoms of numbness. All patients were followed up 27.3 months on average (range, 15-60 months). Radiographic examination showed signs of bone remodeling at 6-8 weeks after operation, and formation of extra cortical bone bridge. All of them achieved bone union within 10 to 41 weeks (mean, 17.6 weeks). At last follow-up, the average Neer score was 83.36 (range, 72-96); and the shoulder function was excellent in 10 cases, good in 5, and fair in 2 with an excellent and good rate of 88.24%. And the average Mayo score was 86.52 (range, 68-100); and the elbow function was excellent in 11 cases, good in 3, and fair in 3 with an excellent and good rate of 82.35%. Conclusion The bone bridging could effectively form by extra cortical grafting technique. Atrophic humeral nonunions can be successfully treated with locking compress plate and extra cortical bone bridge fixation.

Abstract
The first-in-class inhibitor of ALK, c-MET and ROS1, crizotinib (Xalkori), has shown remarkable clinical efficacy in treatment of ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer. However, in neuroblastoma, activating mutations in the ALK kinase domain are typically refractory to crizotinib treatment, highlighting the need for more potent inhibitors. The next-generation ALK inhibitor PF-06463922 is predicted to exhibit increased affinity for ALK mutants prevalent in neuroblastoma. We examined PF-06463922 activity in ALK-driven neuroblastoma models in vitro and in vivo In vitro kinase assays and cell-based experiments examining ALK mutations of increasing potency show that PF-06463922 is an effective inhibitor of ALK with greater activity towards ALK neuroblastoma mutants. In contrast to crizotinib, single agent administration of PF-06463922 caused dramatic tumor inhibition in both subcutaneous and orthotopic xenografts as well as a mouse model of high-risk neuroblastoma driven by Th-ALK(F1174L)/MYCN Taken together, our results suggest PF-06463922 is a potent inhibitor of crizotinib-resistant ALK mutations, and highlights an important new treatment option for neuroblastoma patients.

Abstract
This study systematically reviews prospective and retrospective cohort studies evaluating the risk of hip fracture following stroke. Stroke survivors are at high risk of hip fracture and had a 1.5-fold increased risk compared to stroke-free men and women of the same age. Hip fracture often occurs in ageing and female stroke patients. We performed a meta-analysis to summarize evidence from prospective and retrospective cohort studies about the risk of hip fracture following stroke. We identified English and non-English publications in MEDLINE and EMBASE using stroke and fracture as keywords to 31 December 2015. The data of the incidence of hip fracture were extracted to calculate raw incident rate in stroke survivors as well as risk of hip fractures in strokes comparing populations using a random-effects model. Subgroup analyses were performed to identify the potential influence of some factors. Six prospective and seven retrospective cohort studies were included, involving 512,214 stroke patients with 22,559 hip fractures. The pooled prevalence of hip fractures was 4.87 % (95 % CI, 4.05 to 5.68 %) in stoke patients. We conducted subgroup analysis according to sex, age, duration of follow-up, study design, and region, which showed that female (vs. male) stroke patients older than 70 years (vs. those less than 70 years) and duration of follow-up more than 2 years (vs. those less than 2 years) have higher proportions of hip fractures. Four studies showed that stroke patients had a significantly higher risk of hip fracture compared with the general population, while the other study had a non-significant higher risk. The overall prevalence of hip fracture was 3.28 % (3431 of 104,646) in stroke patients and 2.83 % (36,493 of 1,287,726) in general population, respectively, and the unadjusted combined relative risk of hip fracture was 1.54 (95 % CI, 1.06-2.25). Hip fractures often occur in ageing and female stroke patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Glial scars are widely seen as a mechanical barrier to central nervous system regeneration. Up to now, several studies have addressed and clarified how different lesion microenvironment properties affect astrogliosis. In particular, hypoxia induces the astrocyte astrogliosis, and thus promotes the formation of glial scars. However, little is known about the mechanism underlining such process. In the present study, we investigated the regulation by the miR-17-5p on the hypoxia-induced viability via targeting p21. MATERIALS AND METHODS We examined the expression of miR-15a, miR-16, miR-17-5p, hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and p21 in the astrocytes under hypoxia, with quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blotting (WB) methods. Then investigated the regulatory role of miR-17-5p on the level of HIF-1α and p21, with qRT-PCR, WB and luciferase reporting assay, and examined the activity of astrocytes under normoxia or hypoxia. RESULTS Results demonstrated that miR-15a, miR-16, miR-17-5p were significantly upregulated, while HIF-1α and p21 were markedly downregulated in the hypoxia-treated astrocytes. And the transfection with miR-17-5p mimics significantly downregulated the expression of HIF-1α and p21 in such cells. And the luciferase reporter assay confirmed the targeting inhibiting of p21 by miR-17-5p in astrocytes. Moreover, the viability of astrocytes was significantly upregulated by the miR-17-5p mimics transfection under the hypoxia condition. CONCLUSIONS Our novel data suggest that the upregulated miR-17-5p contributes to the proliferation of astrocytes, in response to hypoxia, implying the potential role of miR-17-5p in the formation of glial scars.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To verify whether mesenchymal stem cells protected the islet allograft via modulating follicular B helper T cells (Tfh) cells. METHODS The recipient mice were divided into 5 groups. Group A: the diabetic group (n = 12); Group B: islets alone group (n = 12); Group C: MSCs and islets co-transplanted group (n = 12, MSCs = 0.5 × 10(6)); Group D: MSCs and islets co-transplanted group (n = 12, MSCs = 1 × 10(6)); Group E: MSCs and islets co-transplanted group (n = 12, MSCs = 2 × 10(6)); One control group of normal NOD mice was set as well. ELISA was used to examine the autoantibody level of GAD65 Ab, insulin autoantibodies, and insulin. The Tfh count was determined by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. The insulin expression of islet grafts, the infiltration of lymphocytes, and the Tfh cells were observed via hematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS There was significant prolonged graft survival and more insulin expression of islet grafts observed in the co-transplant group. A lower level of the Tfh cells and autoantibody GAD65 Ab, insulin autoantibodies were also presented in the co-transplant group (P < .01). The infiltration of lymphocytes in the co-transplant group was notably less than in the islet-alone group (P < .01). CONCLUSIONS Mesenchymal stem cells were able to protect the islet allograft by regulating the follicular helper T cells.

Abstract
This study was to evaluate the effect of absolute humidity (AH), a combined factor of temperature and relative humidity (RH), on inactivation of avian influenza viruses (AIVs) on surfaces. Suspensions of the H9N2 or H6N2 AIV were deposited onto carrier surfaces that were either porous (pine wood) or non-porous (stainless steel, synthetic rubber and glass). The inoculated carriers were incubated at 23, 35 or 45°C with 25% or 55% RH for up to 28 days. After incubation, virus was recovered and quantified by chicken embryo assays. The time required to obtain a log10 reduction in virus infectivity (D-value) was estimated using a linear regression model. At AH of 5.2 g/m3 (23°C & 25% RH), both viruses survived up to 14 days on the porous surface and for at least 28 days on the non-porous surfaces. The corresponding D-values for H9N2 and H6N2 were 1.49 and 6.90 days on the porous surface and 7.81 and 12.5 days on the non-porous surfaces, respectively. In comparison, at AH of 9.9 g/m3 (35°C & 25% RH) or 11.3 g/m3 (23°C & 55% RH), the D-values for H9N2 and H6N2 dropped to ≤0.76 day on the porous surface and to ≤1.81 days on the non-porous surfaces. As the AH continued to rise from 11.3 to 36.0 g/m3 , the D-value for both viruses decreased further. The relationship between D-value and AH followed a form of y = ax-b for both viruses. The D-values for H9N2 virus were significantly lower (P < 0.05) than those for H6N2 virus. Exposure to ammonia gas at concentrations of 86 and 173 ppm did not significantly alter test results. The findings give evidence that increasing the AH in poultry buildings following an outbreak of disease could greatly reduce the length of time required for their decontamination.

Abstract
Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is one of the most common diseases leading to hearing and speech communication barriers in infants and young children. The OTOF gene is the first gene identified for autosomal recessive non-syndromic ANSD, and patients with OTOF mutations have shown marked improvement of auditory functions from the cochlear implantation, but the true involvement of OTOF mutations in Chinese ANSD patients is still unknown which precludes the effective management of this disease. Here, we investigated the contribution of OTOF mutations to congenital ANSD patients in China. In all, 37 infants and young Children with ANSD were screened for all the exons of OTOF gene, of them 34 patients had no neonatal risk factors who were considered as congenital ANSD. The clinical manifestation and audiometric features were also investigated and compared in patients with and without OTOF mutations. In all, 14 of these subjects were shown to carry two or three mutant alleles of OTOF with the high frequency of 41.2% in congenital ANSD patients. In total, 15 novel pathogenic mutations and 10 reported mutations were identified. Our results confirmed that mutations in OTOF gene were a major cause of congenital ANSD in China. Identification of OTOF mutations can facilitate diagnosis, clinical intervention and counseling for congenital ANSD.

Abstract
Abstract
ALK inhibitors such as the ALK/MET/ROS1 inhibitor crizotinib (Xalkori) have shown clinical efficacy in a number of tumour types. However, in ALK positive neuroblastoma treatment with the ALK inhibitor crizotinib has proved more difficult, highlighting the exploration of new drugs as a clinical priority. A recent report of an increased percentage of ALK positive cases in the relapsed neuroblastoma patient population, together with the increased repertoire of ALK inhibitors now available, led to the investigation of alternative ALK inhibitors with potential for use in treatment of neuroblastoma. Here we report an investigation of the activity of a next generation ALK inhibitor in a range of in vitro and pre-clinical ALK driven neuroblastoma models.
Initially PF-06463922 was tested in various neuroblastoma cell lines and a range of gain-of-function ALK neuroblastoma mutations were subsequently analyzed in more detail in engineered Ba/F3 and PC12 cell models and by in vitro kinase assays, comparing the effect of PF-06463922 in abrogating cell growth and induced pharmacodynamics markers of response with the ALK inhibitor crizotinib. These results clearly show PF-06463922 to be a superior inhibitor of ALK kinase activity inhibiting all neuroblastoma mutant ALK forms assayed. Finally, single agent oral administration of PF-06463922 lead to induction of apoptosis and a dramatic reduction in tumour volume in a genetically engineered mouse model of treatment-resistant high-risk neuroblastoma driven by aberrant expression of MYCN and activated ALK. Taken together, our results suggest that PF-06463922 represents an important potential step forward in the treatment of relapsed neuroblastoma with mutated ALK.
Statement of significance: Our results together with PK/PD analysis of PF-06463922 suggest future clinical trial investigation of ALK positive neuroblastoma

Abstract
Autophagy, the process of self-degradation of cellular components, has an important role in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease. In this study, we investigated the effects of SP600125 as c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor and bucladesine as a cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) analog on spatial memory and expression of autophagic factors in Aβ-injected rats. Male Wistar rats were used. Rats were randomly allocated into five groups as following: amyloid beta (Aβ)-only group, Aβ + SP600125 (30 μg/1 μ/side, n = 7) and/or bucladesine (100 μM/1 μl/side, n = 7), and the normal control (vehicle only) group. The treatments were administered bilaterally to the CA1 sub-region of the hippocampus stereotaxically. Spatial reference memory was performed using Morris Water Maze 21 days later. The expression of authophagy markers (beclin1, Atg7, Atg12, and LC3 II/LC3 I) in the hippocampus was evaluated using western blotting. Compared to the vehicle group, Aβ administration reduced spatial reference learning (P < 0.001) and memory (P < 0.01) and upregulated the expression of beclin1, Atg7, Atg12, and LC3 II/I (P < 0.0001). Compare to Aβ-only group, the administration of SP600125 and/or bucladesine improved spatial reference learning (P < 0.001) and memory (P < 0.01). Compared to the Aβ-only group, the treatment with SP600125 and/or bucladesine also reduced beclin1, Atg7, Atg12, and LC3 II/I (P < 0.0001) which was similar to amount of normal rats. In summary, it seems that the improvement of spatial memory by SP600125 and/or bucladesine in Aβ-injected rats is in relation with normalizing of autophagy to the physiologic level, possibly through neuroprotection and/or neuroplasticity.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The heterogeneous nature of the mucinous breast cancer (MBC), with its subtypes of pure (PMBC) and mixed carcinoma (MMBC), calls for more precise individualized prognosis assessment. PMBC showed favorable prognosis in both Chinese and Caucasian women, with nodal status and TNM stage as the prognostic predictors [PMID: 18026874, 22451233]. However, few studies had investigated tumor biology and prognosis of MMBC in Chinese population, especially with respect to the different co-existing cancer components.
Methods: From January 1983 to December 2014, 197 consecutive MBC patients, including 117 PMBC and 80 MMBC, received breast cancer surgery in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The clinicopathological characteristics, treatment choice, disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared both between PMBC vs MMBC, and among subgroups of MMBC according to the mixed entities, including 24 women with ductal caricinoma in situ (DCIS) and 45 with IDC. Univariate and Cox multivariate analyses were performed to identify the prognostic factors.
Results: The 197 MBC comprised 1.9% of contemporary 10,192 breast cancer (BC). Compared to PMBC, MMBC had significantly more lymph node metastasis (p=0.038), Her2 positivity (p=0.036), high Ki-67 index (defined as >20%, p=0.026) and anti-Her2 targeted therapy (p=0.006). All these differences remained significant when the comparison were performed among PMBC, MBC+DCIS and MBC+IDC, and additional significant difference were identified in tumor size (p=0.036), pTNM stage (p=0.003) and chemotherapy (p=0.003). However, no significant difference was found in DFS or OS between any two subtypes/subgroups of MBC, including PMBC, MMBC, MBC+DCIS and MBC+IDC.
Table 1. Comparison of survival outcomes among PMBC, MBC+DCIS and MBC+IDC§SurvivalPMBC (N=117, Median, range, and Mean±SD)MBC+DCIS (N=24, Median, range, and Mean±SD)MBC+IDC (N=45, Median, range, and Mean±SD)P-ValueDFS (months)43 (1-233), 52.7±45.227 (1-84), 34.3±25.326 (1-113), 33.1±26.60.187OS (months)46 (1-312), 56.9±51.827 (1-84), 34.4±25.326 (1-113), 34.8±28.70.628§ Kaplan-Meier survival curves would be displayed in the poster
High Ki-67 index (p=0.046) appeared to be the significant DFS related prognostic factor for PMBC, whereas estrogen receptor (ER) status (univariate p=0.000, multivariate p=0.062) and immunophenotype (luminal, her2, or triple-negative, univariate p=0.000, multivariate p=0.079) might be the potential DFS predictors for MMBC. None of the above-mentioned clinicopathological factors could serve as OS predictors for MBC.
Conclusion: This population-based study showed that there were significant difference in nodal status, Ki-67, Her2 positivity and targeted therapy between PMBC and MMBC, and furthermore in tumor size, stage and chemotherapy among PMBC and subgroups of MMBC such as MBC+DCIS and MBC+IDC. However, survival outcomes were similar between these clinical entities and subgroups, suggesting the intra-tumoral heterogeneity might not interfere with survival outcomes of MBC in Chinese woman. High Ki-67 index was identified as the significant DFS related prognostic factor for PMBC, whereas ER status and immunophenotype as the potential DFS predictors for MMBC.

Abstract
Sensitive dependence of the electronic structure on the number of layers in few-layer phosphorene raises a question about the true nature of the interlayer interaction in so-called "van der Waals (vdW) solids". We performed quantum Monte Carlo calculations and found that the interlayer interaction in bulk black phosphorus and related few-layer phosphorene is associated with a significant charge redistribution that is incompatible with purely dispersive forces and not captured by density functional theory calculations with different vdW corrected functionals. These findings confirm the necessity of more sophisticated treatment of nonlocal electron correlation in total energy calculations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the effectiveness of percutaneous Kirschner wire poking reduction and elastic stable intramedullary nailing fixation for treating severe displaced radial neck fractures in children. METHODS Between November 2010 and August 2014, 17 children with severe displaced radial neck fractures were treated with percutaneous Kirschner wire poking reduction and elastic stable intramedullary nailing fixation. There were 13 boys and 4 girls with an average age of 8.7 years (range, 6-14 years). The right side was involved in 9 cases, and the left side was involved in 8 cases. The causes of injury were falling in all cases. The angular deformity at fracture was 64-102° (mean, 84°). According to the Judet classification, 7 cases were classified as grade IVa and 10 cases as grade IVb. The time from injury to operation was 4.2 days (range, 1-7 days). Metaizeau classification and Tibone-Stoltz elbow performance score were used to access the radiological and clinical results, respectively. RESULTS The operation time was 20-50 minutes (mean, 30 minutes). All incisions healed by first intention. The patients were followed up 12-46 months (mean, 20 months). All fractures healed at 2 months after operation. There was no complication of malunion, early epiphyseal closure, avascular necrosis, enlargement of the radial head epiphysis, cubitus varus and valgus deformities, or proximal radioulnar joint synostosis. One case had elbow extension limitation. At last follow-up, the elbow range of motion in flexion, extension, pronation, and supination showed no significant difference between affected side and normal side (P>0.05). The clinical results were excellent in 16 cases and good in 1 case, with an excellent and good rate of 100%. The angulation was 0-12° (mean, 3.7°) on the X-ray film; anatomic reduction or nearly anatomic reduction was obtained, and the radiological results were excellent in 13 cases and good in 4 cases, with an excellent and good rate of 100%. CONCLUSION Percutaneous Kirschner wire poking reduction followed by fixation with elastic stable intramedullary nailing is a simple, safe, minimally invasive, and effective method to treat severe displaced radial neck fractures in children.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effectiveness and technical key points of limb salvage surgery by allotransplantation of cryopreservated vascularized bone in children and adolescents with osteosarcoma. METHODS A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 21 children and adolescents with osteosarcoma receiving limb salvage surgery by allotransplantation of cryopreservated vascularized bone from their relatives between February 2004 and April 2012. There were 13 males and 8 females, aged from 7 to 16 years (mean, 12.6 years). According to Enneking stage system, 15 cases were rated as stage IIA and 6 cases as stage IIB. The tumors located at the distal femur in 10 cases, at the proximal femur in 1 case, at the proximal tibia in 8 cases, at the proximal humerus in 1 case, and at the distal radius in 1 case. Imaging examination showed that epiphyseal extension of malignant bone tumors in 7 cases. The iliac bone allograft with deep iliac vessels was obtained from their lineal consanguinity. After preservation by a two-step freezing schedule, the iliac bone allograft with deep iliac vessels was implanted into the bone defect area after tumor resection. The size of iliac bone flap was 8.0 cm x 3.0 cm x 2.0 cm-14.0 cm x 5.0 cm x 2.5 cm. Reserved joint surgery was performed on 16 cases and joint fusion surgery on 5 cases, and external fixation was used in all cases. The chemotherapy was given according to sequential high-dose methotraxate, adriamycin, and cisplatine before and after operation. RESULTS All 21 cases were followed up from 5 months to 11 years (mean, 6.4 years). At 2 weeks after operation, the erythrocyte rosette forming cells accounted for 56.7% ± 3.9%, showing no significant difference when compared with that of normal control (58.3% ± 4.3%) (t = 1.56, P = 0.13), which suggested no acute rejection. At 4 weeks after operation, single photon emission computerized tomography bone scan indicated that the blood supply of bone graft was rich, and the metabolism was active. At 12 weeks after operation, the digital subtraction angiography showed the artery of iliac bone flap kept patency. X-ray films showed that malunion and non-union occurred at 5 and 6 months after operation in 1 case, respectively. The bone graft healed in the other patients, and the healing time was 3.2-6.0 months (mean, 4.4 months). At last follow-up, American Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was significantly improved to 26.80 ± 2.14 from preoperative value (17.15 ± 1.86) (t = -4.15, P = 0.00). The survival rate was 85.7% (18/21) and the recurrence rate was 9.5% (2/21). CONCLUSION Allotransplantation of cryopreservated vascularized bone from the relatives provides a new method for the treatment of osteosarcoma in children and adolescents. A combination of allotransplantation and chemotherapy can achieve the ideal treatment effect. The correct cutting, preservation, and transplantation of the donor bone, and indication are the key to improve the effectiveness.
