[Traumatic occlusions of the supraclinoid internal carotid artery].

The authors report two cases of post-traumatic occlusions of the internal carotid artery, located at the level of emergence or just above the emergence of this artery out of the cavernous sinus. Comparing those two cases with five others reported in the litterature, the authors try to explain their mechanisms of occlusion : thrombosis or embolism.

[Cerebrovascular accidents and oral contraceptives (reflections a propos of 36 observations)].

Thirty-six cases of cerebro-vascular accidents in young women using oral contraceptives have been studied and a survey of the literature devoted to the subject gives an opportunity to discuss a few problems related with these accidents. They occur with no evident relationship with the type of drug used, and the duration of treatment; in 66 p. 100 of the cases these patients have a definite and sometimes severe pathological history prior to the neurological accident. The cerebro-vascular accidents are of the ischemic type in more than 80 p. 100 of the cases. Angiographic studies demonstrate various types of lesion: stenosis or thrombosis of the arteries; in almost all of the cases the internal carotid artery or the sylvian artery or both of them are concerned; the angiogram appeared normal in 8 cases.
