[Lethal midline granuloma. A case report].

In their study of a case of lethal midline-granuloma, the authors describe the relations between this affection, Wegener's granulomatosis and lymphoma. The case under review illustrates the difficulty in accurately defining the nosologic picture of the disease. Anatomo-pathological examinations present two possibilities: one being malignant granuloma of the Stewart type, the other that of lymphoma. From its subsequent evolution, we may eventually learn whether this is purely a local illness or represents the onset of a systemic disease.

Processing medical records: data related problems.

Computer processing of medical data can sometimes give a poor result. This can be due to several reasons. First, medical data may be heterogeneous, sometimes inacurate and often subjective. Secondly, the complex process of codification, data capture and validation is rarely carried out as carefully as possible. Finally, the processing itself can be the cause of some inaccuracy when it does not correspond to the defined objectives for which the data have been collected.

[System for querying medical records].

The use of traditional interrogation systems seldom applies to medical records. We developed a system oriented towards the processing of these records. We will describe here the language, the type of utilisation, the organisation and the performance of the system.

Cytogenetic evidence of clonal evolution in 5q- anemia.

The clinical homogeneity of myeloproliferative syndromes associated with a 5 q- marker can be contested, but nevertheless finds support in the 2 case reports we have cited. One of these observations of refractory anemia with partial myeloblastosis and 5 q- marker has shown a transformation into an acute myelomonocytic leukemia with clonal chromosomal evolution.
