Development of the innervation of the urogenital complex in the fetal mouse.

The developing urogenital complex of the fetal mouse was studied by means of silver impregnation and electron microscopy. These studies showed that: 1) the mesonephric field is innervated during prenatal stages (Wolffian nerve); 2) nerve penetration precedes the differentiation of the gonads and related ducts; and 3) the Wolffian nerve arises during the earliest stages from the first pair of abdominal rami communicantes. The identity between the fetal Wolffian nerve and the nerve of the suspensory ligament (higher pathway) of the adult is discussed.

[Pseudotumoral rheumatoid coxitis (author's transl)].

Two cases of rheumatoid coxitis of the macrogeodic type are reported. In one case, there was a very large anfractuous cavity in the socket and head, complicated by a pathological fracture of the socket, which raised the suspicion of a malignant tumor. The authors review the characteristics of these macrogeodic forms of rheumatoid arthritis, about forty cases having been reported in the published literature.

[Arthropneumotomography in recurrent dislocations and subluxations of the shoulder. Methods, results, and indications in 45 cases (author's transl)].

The authors describe the results of arthropneumotomography in 45 patients with recurrent dislocations or subluxations of the shoulder. The method used is given in detail and the need for excellent quality glenoid profile sections, as described by Bernageau, is emphasized. The results are analyzed for bone lesions, capsuloligamentary lesions, and intra-articular foreign bodies. The two latter conditions are specifically demonstrated by arthropneumotomography. These results are then described radiological and surgical correlations, and the indications defined. Arthropneumotomography is therefore of value when a decision is to be taken as to the need for operation.
