The clinical data, imaging data, pathology results, perioperative complications, etc of patients with primary retroperitoneal teratoma admitted and treated at Shanxi Children^'s Hospital from March 2013 to September 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into no complication group and complication group according to whether there were perioperative complications. The differences between the two groups were compared, and the influencing factors of complications were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression model. A total of 33 patients were included in this study, including 7 males and 26 females, with an age of [<i>M</i> (<i>Q</i>₁, <i>Q</i>₃), 9.0 (4.0, 24.0)] months. Nineteen cases had tumors located in the left upper abdomen and 14 cases in the right upper abdomen, among which 17 cases grew across the midline, with the maximum tumor diameter of (12.9±4.5) cm. All patients had anatomical displacement of retroperitoneal vessels and organs: the number of anatomical displaced arteries was 3 (3, 4), the number of anatomical displaced veins was 4 (3, 5), the number of anatomical displaced organs was 5 (4, 6). Pathologic examination revealed 28 mature teratomas (Grade 0 and Grade 1) and 5 immature teratomas (Grade 2 and Grade 3).

The patients were categorized into COPD Global Initiative for COPD (GOLD) grade 1, 2, 3 and 4 groups according to the severity of lung function. Based on the fat-free mass index (FFMI), patients were categorized into a low FFMI group (FFMI&lt;17 kg/m&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;) and a normal FFMI group (FFMI≥17 kg/m&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;). Based on phase angle (PhA), patients were categorized into the low PhA group (PhA&lt;5°) and the normal PhA group (PhA≥5°). Based on 6MWD, patients were divided into impaired endurance group (6MWD&lt;350 m) and normal endurance group (6MWD≥350 m). Differences in body composition indexes, exercise capacity, and nutritional status of patients in different subgroups were compared. A trend test was used to analyze the trend of GOLD grading and body composition indexes.

The tinnitus severity was evaluated by the doctor's assessment, the patient's self-assessment, the MTQ, and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Follow-up assessments were conducted 3 to 6 months later to evaluate the severity of tinnitus post-treatment, and information on the interventions received (pharmacologic/non-pharmacologic) and patients' self-reported clinical impressions of their treatment outcomes (tinnitus cured/improved/no change/exacerbated) was collected. <b>Results:</b> A total of 54 tinnitus patients aged (43.5±12.7) years were included, consisting of 16 males and 38 females. There were 38 cases in the medication group and 16 cases in the non-medication group. No statistically significant differences in baseline clinical data were observed (all <i>P</i>>0.05). The proportion of primary tinnitus in the medication group was higher than that in the non-medication group [97.4% (37/38) vs 75.0% (12/16), <i>P</i>=0.023]. The correlation coefficients of MTQ scores at the initial and follow-up visits with doctor's assessment, patient's self-assessment, and VAS scores were 0.679, 0.483, 0.606, 0.774, 0.779, and 0.756, respectively (all <i>P</i><0.001).
