[Study of pulmonary leucostasis by measurement of the alveolo-arterial CO2 difference (author's transl)].

In order to study pulmonary leucostasis in 18 leukemic subjects, the ventilatory flow from ventilated nonperfused zones (VFVNZ) was measured using alveolo-arterial CO2 difference (28 times). This method proved to be simple and accurate in the follow-up of the patients. The number of white cells necessary to increase the VFVNZ by 1% is very different from one histologic type to another. These results are in agreement with in vitro observations.

[Pleural aspergillosis. One case of giant mycetoma (450 g) (author's transl)].

Pleural aspergillosis is an uncommon localization; only about 60 observations have been previously reported and two-thirds of them in France. A new case characterized by the presence of a giant mycetoma (450 g) is reported. It should be kept in mind that this lesion develops in the residual cavity, resulting from a therapeutic pneumothorax. Conservative surgery is therefore required and enables (as shown in this case) a satisfactory recovery of the underlying parenchyma.
