[Congenital cutaneous candidiasis. 2 case reports].

The authors report two new observations of congenital cutaneous candidiasis (CCC). The antenatal character and modes of infection are reviewed, together with the usual clinical features. Diagnosis is based on clinical observation confirmed by biochemical tests. Evolution is generally favorable with topical antifungal treatment. As systemic pulmonary, meningeal or cerebral infection is possible, systemic antifungal therapy may be advisable.

[A case of bullous dermatosis at the end of pregnancy transmitted to the newborn: herpes gestationis].

The authors report a case of bullous dermatosis developing at 38 weeks of amenorrhoea in a para II. The newborn infant developed a skin rash 3 days after birth. Direct immunofluorescent study of skin biopsies showed the presence of a very small amount of IgG and a very large amount of complement fixed to the basal membrane. Tests for the presence of Herpes gestationis factor in maternal and child blood by immunofluorescence to anti-complement were negative. Tests for anti-epidermal antibodies by indirect immunofluorescence in the serum were also negative, for both anti-basal membrane antibodies as well as anti-intercellular substance antibodies.

[Myelopathy complicating acute bacterial meningitis (author's transl)].

Four cases of acute bacterial meningitis complicated by medullary involvement are described. The complication presenting as a transverse myelitis occurred early and suddenly in the course of severe bacterial meningitis caused by different bacteria. Only two other comparable cases have been reported.

Monosomy 10qter.

An 11-year-old girl with 10q26qter deletion is described and compared with another patient reported in the literature. The most characteristic features of monosomy 10qter seem to be: severe mental retardation; growth retardation; microcephaly; and facial dysmorphism with a long and triangular facies, a broad and prominent nasal bridge, a poorly developed tip of the nose, a short philtrum, and flattened angles of the mandible. Several of these features are opposed in type and countertype to features of trisomy 10qter.

[Benign intracranial hypertension in infancy and childhood. Comment upon 33 cases (author's transl)].

The authors report 33 observations concerning benign intracranial hypertension in 4 months to 15 year-old children. They emphasize the prevalence of this syndrome and the frequent absence of papilloedema at this age period. CCT scan is the neuroradiologic procedure of choice to exclude an intracranial lesion. It is important to note the exceptional evolution to a secondary optic atrophy.
