[Lymph node tuberculosis].

Ganglionic tuberculosis with a cervicofacial location is still frequent in Tunisia. The main problem posed is bacteriological. Over the last nine years, we have treated 110 patients. There is a clear male predominance. The preferential location is the jugulocarotid and upper spinal chain. The notions of contamination and a secondary location, particularly in the lungs, are rarely encountered. Extended cellulolymphadenectomy is the basis of surgical treatment, backed up by polychemotherapy over a period of 6 months.

[The paraneoplastic syndrome in nasopharynx cancer. 32 cases].

Thirty-two cases of paraneoplastic syndrome associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma are reported. The prevalence of the syndrome in young subjects was striking: 29 of the patients were under 25 years of age. Seventeen presented with hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, 13 with clubbing of the fingers, 1 with dermatomyositis and 1 with myelemia due to excessive production of bone marrow cells. Twenty-eight patients had metastases which involved the lung in 24. These pulmonary metastases are held responsible for the osteoarticular paraneoplastic syndrome, but in our 4 patients without metastases the syndrome was probably caused by the primary tumour itself.
