Skin elastic fiber pathology and idiopathic scoliosis.

An antomic study of skin elastic fibers coupled with a histochemical and ultrastructural study of one peripheral muscle sample was performed in 34 patients with idiopathic scoliosis. Twenty-eight of them had an elastopathy resulting in rupture or disparity between the dermis elastic fibers. The muscle histoenzymologic study showed that 17 of the patients also had an abnormal predominance of type I muscle fibers. These data led to our discussion of the role of elastic tissue abnormalities in the genesis of early or severe idiopathic scolioses.

[Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia with cutaneous lesions and deafness following periarteritis nodosa (author's transl)].

A case is reported of a 49 years-old man who presented with cutaneous and muscular manifestations revealing periarteritis nodosa. Two years after detection of this disease occured a preleukemic condition and four years later a chronic lymphocytic leukaemia is discovered. In clinical course appeared a tuberous infiltration of the face and a sudden bilateral deafness. Regression of these two abnormalities is obtained after administration of prednisolone. The patient died of generalized infectious process postoperatively. From these clinical and pathological findings relations between periarteritis and CLL, occurence of deafness and cutaneous lesions are discussed. The relationship between the development of CLL and the immunosuppressive treatment is considered.
