[Contribution of echotomography to the study of parotid diseases].

Echotomography of the parotids in 88 patients was successful in detecting normal parotid morphology or inflammation of the parenchyma (parotitis) in 100 p. cent of such cases, and detecting the precise localization of tumors (adenopathies or intraparotid tumors) up to 3 mm in diameter in 93 p. cent of cases. Though cystadenomas do not provide a specific image, their appearance is typical. Positive diagnosis was possible in 85 p. cent of mixed tumors of 1 cm diameter or more, and in 5 out of 7 cases of malignant lesions. The diagnostic value of this examination is markedly limiting that of parotid sialography.

[Critical study of dacryorrhinostomy (author's transl)].

Dacryorrhinostomy is a last-chance operation for severe palpebral and canalicular damage which can lead to loss of tissue. The reconstruction of a delicate tube remains a gamble because of the absence of normal structures. The multiplicity of the procedures proposed clearly demonstrates the difficulty in obtaining a functional result. The excellent results obtained with this procedure incited the authors to prolong their study and increase the number of cases in order to confirm the validity of their findings in a large series.

[The value of ductostomy (author's transl)].

This procedure seems to be a valid one, as after using it in 21 cases over a period of one and a half years, there was only 1 failure due to a too hasty removal of the gauze wick. Furthermore, in 12 cases, a catheter was applied to the lacrimal puncta to irrigate the anastomosis with rifocin and hydrocortisone for several days. The advantages of this method appear to be simplification, and less risk of stenosis by using a full flap, when compared to dacryocystorrhinostomy.
