Objective: Study on clinical characteristics and result of treatment benign vocal cord tumor with suspensive laryngeal endoscopic surgery. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was undertaken in 43 patients who had benign vocal cord tumor and performed a suspensive laryngeal endoscopic surgery at ENT Dept. of Hue University Hospital, from 3/2010 to 5/2011. Results: The most common was group was 31 - 45 (44.2%). There was no difference of gender. Moderate hoarness was 67.4%. Classification of benign laryngeal tumor: vocal nodules (13 cases), vocal cyst (18 cases), vocal polyp (10 cases) and Reinke’s edema (2 cases). The successful treatment rate of vocal benign tumor was 88.4%. Conclusions: Suspensive laryngeal endoscopic surgery was the best method to cure benign vocal cord tumor. The surgeon had a clear operative field, easy manoeuver, high rate of cure and less complication.

Objectives: 1. Describe neonatal classification of WHO. 2. Identify some principal clinical and paraclinical signs of term, preterm, post term babies. Patients and method: an observational descriptive study of 233 newborns hospitalized in neonatal unit at Hue university‘ s hospital was done during 12 months from 01/01/2009 to 31/12/2009 for describing neonatal classification and identifying principal clinical and paraclinical signs. Results: Premature (16.74%); Term babies (45.5%); Post term (37.76%); Premature: asphyxia (43.59%), hypothermia (25.64%), vomit (30.77%), jaundice (61.54%), congenital malformation (17.95%); CRP > 10mg/l (53.85%); anemia Hb < 15g/dl (12.82%). Term babies: poor feeding (21.7%); fever (24.53%); CRP > 10mg/l (53.77%); Hyperleucocytes/ Leucopenia (35.85%). Post term: respiratory distress (34%); lethargy (29.55%); vomit (26.14%); polycuthemia (1.14%); hypoglycemia (22.73%). Conclusion: each of neonatal type classified by WHO presente different clinical and paraclinical. Signs. The purpose of this research is to help to treat neonatal pathology more effectively.

Introduction: Vagus nerve stimulation is a palliative treatment for patients with refractory epilepsy to reduce the frequency and intensity of seizures. A bipolar helical electrode is placed around the left vagus nerve at the cervical level and is connected to the pulse generator placed in a subcutaneous pocket, most commonly in the subclavian region. Methods: Between March 1998 and October 2019, we performed 196 procedures related to the vagal nerve stimulation at the Neurosurgery Department in Motol University Hospital. Of these, 126 patients were vagal nerve stimulator implantation surgeries for intractable epilepsy. The cases included 69 female and 57 male patients with mean age at the time of the implantation surgery 22±12.4 years (range 2.1−58.4 years). Results: Nine patients (7.1%) were afflicted by complications related to implantation. Surgical complications included postoperative infection in 1.6%, VNS-associated arrhythmias in 1.6%, jugular vein bleeding in 0.8% and vocal cord paresis in 2.4%. One patient with vocal cord palsy also suffered from severe dysphagia. One patient (0.8%) did not tolerate extra stimulation with magnet due to a prolonged spasm in his throat. The extra added benefit of vagus stimulation in one patient was a significant reduction of previously regular severe headaches. Conclusion: Vagus nerve stimulation is an appropriate treatment for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy who are not candidates for focal resective surgery. Implantation of the vagus nerve stimulator is a relatively safe operative procedure.

Introduction: Surgical wound infection in developing coutries is about 3%. Antibiotics prophylaxis may help to reduce the surgical site infection. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of antibiotics prophylaxis in patients with lumbar disc herniation who were treated with lumbar discectomy at Hue University hospital. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was conducted at Hue University hospital from March 2015 to May 2018 on 54 patients with lumbar disc herniation who were used antibiotics prophylaxis when undergoing discectomy. Results: The infection rate in our study was 0%. Antibiotics prophylaxis reduced the length of hospitalization as well as the medical cost. Conclusion: Antibiotics prophylaxis was effective in preventing surgical site infection despite the fact that the condition of operating rooms did not meet the standard rules. Key words: prophylaxis antibiotics, lumbar disc herniation

Background: Foreign bodies ingestion is a emergency in otology, knowledge of people about foreign bodies ingestion is not enough. Objective: To study the clinical characteristics, paraclinical characteristics and results of treatment from foreign bodies ingestion in Hue Central Hospital and Hue University Hospital. Methods and patiens: A cross descriptive and prospective study over the period from 6/2014 to 5/2016, total are 137 patients come to be diagnosised and treatmented. Results: the average age is 35 years old. Gender: male (51.8%) and women (48.2%). Adults (84.7%) having more than children (15.3%). Age group from 16-30 years is highest (32.8%). There are 95.7% of organic foreign bodies, 4.3% are inorganic foreign bodies. There are 90.5% of patients on diagnosis and treatment in stages less inflammation, arthritis 8.0% in the period and 1.5% in the period complications. Foreign body in the throat problems (73.7%), esophageal foreign bodies (26.3%). Pick up directly foreign bodies 54%, indirectly by the mirror 11.7% and endoscopy 8%, rigid esophagoscopy is 17.5%, flexible esophagoscopy is 7.3%, cervicotomy is 1.5%. Conclusion: Practing direction with in the oropharynx foreign body, using the larynx mirror or endoscopy with in the laryngopharynx for the esophagus foreign bodies, rigid esophagoscopy is better. Key words: Foreign bodies ingestion

Background: Lymphoma is one of the most ten common cancers in the world as well as in Vietnam which has been ever increasing. It was divided into 2 main groups Hodgkin and non – Hodgkin lymphoma in which non-Hodgkin lymphoma appeared more frequency, worse prognosis and different therapy. Objectives: - To describe some common characteristics in patients with non – Hodgkin lymphoma; - To determine the proportion between Hodgkin and non- Hodgkin lymphoma, histopathological classification of classical Hodgkin by modified Rye 1966 and non-Hodgkin lymphoma by Working Formulation (WF) of US national oncology institute 1982. Materials and Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 65 patients with Hodgkin and non- Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosed definitely by histopathology at Hue Central Hospital and Hue University Hospital. Results:. The ratio of male/female for the non-Hodgkin lymphoma was 1.14/1, the most frequent range of age was 51-60 accounting for 35%, not common under 40 years. Non - Hodgkin lymphoma appeared at lymph node was the most common (51.7%), at the extranodal site was rather high 48.3%. The non - Hodgkin lymphoma proportion was predominant 92.3% comparing to the Hodgkin lymphoma only 7.7%; The most WF type was WF7 (53.3%), following the WF6 18,3% and WF5 11,7%; The intermediate malignancy grade of non- Hodgkin lymphoma was the highest proportion accouting for 85%, then the low and the high one 8.3% and 6.7% respectively. Conclusion: The histopathological classification and the malignant grade of lymphoma for Hodgkin and non - Hodgkin lymphoma played a practical role for the prognosis and the treatment orientation, also a fundamental one for the modern classification of non - Hodgkin lymphoma nowadays. Key words: lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, classication, grade, histopathology, lymph node
