Pseudotumoral aspect of posttraumatic digital synovitis.

A case of posttraumatic subacute synovitis with pseudotumor of the digit with bone lesions on plain film is reported. Arteriography showed a pattern of hypervascularity that did not appear malignant and evoked a benign tumor of the synovial. Biopsy helped establish diagnosis of common subacute synovitis. Swelling disappeared spontaneously during subsequent months. Diagnosis of villonodular synovitis is difficllt when proliferation of histiocytes is present.

[Pseudo-tumoral aspect of a post-traumatic digital synovitis].

A case is described of post-traumatic subacute synovitis of a finger exhibiting pseudo-tumoral appearance and radiographic bony changes. Arteriography showed non-malignant hypervascularisation suggesting a benign synovial tumour. Biopsy established a diagnosis of simple subacute synovitis. The swelling regressed spontaneously over the subsequent months. In the case of simple post-traumatic subacute synovitis differential diagnosis should take into account the possibility of villonodular synovitis which involves histiocyte proliferation.

[Gastric mucosa in patients with rheumatoid polyarthritis treated by anti-inflammatory agents. Clinical, radiological, endoscopic, anatomopathological and ultrastructural study].

One hundred patients (50 male, 50 female) suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, treated for more than 6 months with steroid and/or non-steroid anti-inflammatory agents were studied using barium X-rays and gastro-fibroscopy. In 69, one or more gastric biopsies were taken during the endoscopy. The study showed a marked preponderance of ulcerous lesions in males, 9 of the 13 iatrogenic ulcers being found in this sex. It also confirmed the frequency of gastritis and the absence of any correlation between clinical signs and radio-endoscopic findings as well as between the latter and histopathological data. An ultra structural study carried out in 20 cases revealed focal lesions of the clear cells of the neck of the fundus and antral glands and, in 4 cases, marked changes in the gastric endocrine cells.

[Pancreatic injection of a tri-iodinated contrast medium. Optic and electron microscopic analysis. Experimental study in the rat].

Using the optical and electron microscope, the authors studied the effects in the rate of cathetersiation of the pancreatic ducts after laparotomy. 62 rats underwent operation, 42 of which received an injection of 30 p.cent urinary radioselectan, 10 an injection of simple isotonic saline and in 10 of which simple catheterisation without injection was carried out. With injection under high pressure, regardless of the substance used, lesions of acute pancreatitis occurred in almost all cases in the short term and in the long term lesions of localised chronic pancreatitis were fairly common. For these reasons, the authors feel that routine parenchymography is contraindicated and that only opacification of the main pancreatic ducts is permissible.
