[Laryngeal edema and alveolar hypoventilation as primary manifestations of hypothyroidism (author's transl)].

Laryngeal manifestations are well known and relatively frequent in hypothyroidism. For example horseness, which is due to edematous infiltration of the larynx and vocal cords is often the patient's chief complaint, prompting his initial consultation with a specialist. Of much rarer occurence, however is the concomitant development of laryngeal edema and acute respiratory failure. We report one such case history below.

[Tumor of the adrenal gland associating pheochromocytoma and ganglioneuroma (author's transl)].

An adrenal gland tumor associating of both a pheochromocytoma and a ganglioneuroma was discovered upon its fissuration in a 58-year-old male having a family history of neurofibromatosis. The patient's clinical course was fatal due to complications of necrotizing enteritis which was discovered at laparotomy. The association of pheochromocytoma, ganglioneuroma, and "café au lait" spots in the same patient illustrates the polymorphism of neural crest dysgenetic pathology.

[Tetanus. An appraisal of 503 cases (author's transl)].

Five hundred and three patients with tetanus were hospitalized in the intensive care unit of "Hôpital Bretonneau" between January 1st, 1960 and December 31, 1979. An analysis of all these 503 cases is undertaken herein. The results of a similar study by the authors concerning 254 cases of tetanus were published in this journal in 1971 [16]. Frequent reference is made to the earlier study in order to evaluate any differences in prognosis which have occurred since that time.
