BACKGROUND Lacrimal gland pleomorphic adenoma (LGPA) is the most common clinically benign epithelial tumor of the lacrimal gland and is predominantly comprised of epithelial cells and interstitial components. At present, the exact pathogenesis of LGPA remains unclear. Previous research has indicated that the occurrence of LGPA may be related to excessive cell proliferation.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFLymphoproliferative diseases (LPDs) of the ocular adnexa encompass the majority of orbital diseases and include reactive follicular hyperplasia (RFH), atypical lymphoid hyperplasia (ALH), and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALToma). Lymphoid follicles (LFs) are usually observed during the histological examination of LPDs. Currently, because there is a lack of specific clinical signs and diagnostic immunohistochemical biomarkers, it is difficult for pathologists to distinguish MALToma from ocular RFH and ALH, which makes the clinical management of these conditions difficult.

Method: In the RB Treatment Center of General Hospital of Armed Police Forces between January 2009 and September 2011, 42 patients who were diagnosed intraocular RB and treated with ophthalmic artery cannulation for IAC, 8 patients were treated 1 circle, 31 patients were treated 2 circles and 3 patients were treated 3 circles (total, 96 times). Each month had IAC once.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to show the clinical and imaging characteristics in patients with congenital orbital fibrosis.
Methods: A retrospective review of a series of 14 patients with congenital orbital fibrosis hospitalized in Institute of Orbital Disease during 2005 to 2009 have been characterized. Patients aged from 3 months to 18 years old, the median age was 7 years old, 6 cases (43%) were male.
Objective: To study the cell membrane of T-lymphocytes in thyroid associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) by using atomic force microscopy (AFM).
Methods: Case-control study. Forty-two patients were selected as the subjects, and divided into two groups: acute stage (18) and stationary stage (24) ones on the basis of symptom.
Objective: To evaluate the outcome of embolization via orbital surgical exposure for a series of orbital varices.
Methods: This study is a retrospective review of 28 patients (28 eyes, 11 men, 17 women) which were diagnosed as orbital varix from March to December in 2007, in the Institute of Orbital Diseases. Patient's age ranged from 11 to 54 years old, mean 32 years old.
Objective: To evaluate the type, clinical features and diagnostic methods of orbital metastatic tumors.
Methods: In a retrospective study, the records of 30 consecutive cases with orbital metastatic tumors as confirmed by pathologic examination were analyzed with special attention to the epidemiology, clinical manifestations and imaging findings.
Results: Most orbital metastatic tumors in China originated from the breast, followed, in order, by the lung and liver.

Objective: To study the biological characteristics of orbital meningiomas using histological and immunohistochemistrical analysis.
Methods: 19 specimens taking from orbital meningiomas were included in the study. HE staining was used for histology analysis and the immunohistochemistry was applied to demonstrate the expression of Vimentin, EMA, Ki-67, p53 in the tissue of orbital meningiomas.

Objective: To optimize the ultrasonic extraction condition for flavonoids from Chrysanthemum morifolium.
Method: The extraction rate of flavonoids optimized condition (ethanol concentration, ultrasonic time, solvent quantity and extraction times) was determined by orthogonal design. UV-Spectrophotometry was used for the determination.

Objective: To ascertain extraction technology condition for extract and flavonoids from Chrysanthum morifoliwn.
Method: The optimizing ultrasonic extraction condition on the basis of extractive yield and flavonoids were determined by orthogonal design.
Result: The order of factors which affected the flavonoid extraction was extraction times > ethanol concentration > ultrasonic time > solvent quantity.
