[Persistent sciatic artery. Apropos of a new case].

We report a new case of persistent sciatic artery. An 18-year-old girl was hospitalized with ischemia of the left foot. An arteriogram demonstrated a sciatic artery completely persistent. The superficial femoral artery was hypoplasic. A left femoro-popliteal by pass with saphenous vein graft was practised. After the operation, the patient did well and had no complications. We present this observation with a literature review about clinical arteriographic and surgical aspects of this vascular structure and its complications.

[Peri-nephritic phlegmon in children. Apropos of 13 cases].

The authors present their experience on perinephric abscess in children based upon a series of 13 cases in 12 children. After review of the classical data given by the clinical inquiry and radiology, a special regard is given to new imaging investigations which have considerably improved diagnosis. Treatment also has been ameliorated by advent of percutaneous drainage under echography or tomodensitometry control.

[Sideropenic dysphagia].

Ten typical cases of sideropenic dysphagia over four years reported and clinical, biological, endoscopic and radiological signs are studied. The authors stress the value of oesophagal opacification for diagnosis. The particularities of our study are the relative high frequency of the disease in Tunisia and the unusual attack in two black patients.

[Echographic symptomatology of peritonitis encapsulans].

The authors, try to establish an approach about ultrasonic pattern of capsulated peritonitis through study of four cases. The echographical semeology of this affection is based on: echoscopic signs which study the intestinal mobility and lumen, and the associated ascits: --echographic signs represented essentially by: --intestinal agglutination; --the presence of real or virtual capsula; --meso-retraction. The frequency of this affection seems to be not negligible in Tunisia. The tuberculosis is the most frequent cause, as an etiology.
