[Van der Meulen urethroplasty. Some technical details, results and commentary (author's transl)].

Nineteen cases of anterior hypospadias corrected by Van der Meulen's operation are reviewed. Principle of this procedure is presented, pointing out some important details for successful results. Rare complications were observed and in all cases the final aspects of the penis is good, and the meatus can be made as near the tip as possible. This technique is very easy, urinary diversion is not used, and hypospadias may be repaired in pre-school time. Chordee is unnecessary cured before urethroplasty. A post-operative rotation of the penis can occur, but generally disappears in some months.

[Internal male pseudo-hermaphrodism (male with a uterus). Apropos of 6 cases].

Internal male pseudo-hermaphrosdism (man with a uterus) constitutes an uncommon range of sexual ambiguity. Regard to 6 personal case histories covering 3 families of 2 brothers, and gazing on the different cases picking out the literature, some problems are looking on successively: concerning the etiopathogenesis, the genetical transferring way, the aspect of the mullerian duct structures and of the male internal genital canals, the prognosis and the chirurgical therapy of this disease which is founded by chance, most of the times during the chirurgical therapy of a cryptorchidy or during a laparotomy.

[Epstein-Barr virus associated Burkitt's lymphoma in a French child (author's transl)].

Pathologic diagnosis of malignant lymphoma, Burkitt type, was made in a 12 year old child with an abdominal tumour. The association of this lymphoma with Epstein-Barr virus was done based on the detection of Epstein-Barr viral markers within the tumour cells, as well as on the patient's serology. To our knowledge, it is the first time that the association between Burkitt's lymphoma and Epstein-Barr virus, which is frequent in Africa, is reported in a Caucasian French.

[Hour-glass craniofacial teratoma (author's transl)].

A male infant was born with a voluminous left jugal swelling identified by biopsy on the 8th day as a mature benign teratoma. Further investigations were conducted because of mild exophthalmia, including an electro-encephalogram and craniofacial computer tomography. An enormous frontotemporal intracranial extension of the tumor was discovered on the same side. The tumor was completely excised at the age of 1 month by a two-stage operation : neurosurgical followed by maxillofacial eight days later. The postoperative course was uneventful. There was no relapse after one year but because of the consequences of intracranial excision the prognosis was very poor. The authors discuss this case and review those in the published literature in order to describe the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of this extremely rare craniofacial teratoma of the newborn.

[Meconial peritonitis. Recordings about six observations. Diagnostic and prognostic value of calcifications. Therapeutic given off (author's transl)].

The authors report six cases of meconium peritonitis with intra-abdominal calcifications; surgical intervention was successful in four. In five patients, fibrocystic desease of pancreas was eliminated. Presenting this report, it is their intention to underline the good prognosis of calcifications which generally eliminate the meconium ileus.

[Endoscopical measures of length of intramural ureter in children with primary vesico-ureteral reflux (author's transl)].

153 endoscopical measures of the length of the intra-mural ureter in 81 children over 2 years have enabled us to ascertain that this segment of vesical ureter is significantly shorter in most patients with vesico-ureteral reflux. By contrast with other previous studies, we have not been able to use this examination for establishing the prognosis of the reflux, perhaps by lack of sufficiently prolonged follow-up However these data have been helpful to us in two circumstances and were complementary of the determination of aspect and position of ureteral meatus: a - When the child is operated for au unilateral reflux, a controlateral short intra-mural ureter suggests the value of a bilateral reimplantation to avoid the appearance of a controlateral reflux. b - When the child has an urinary infection without demonstrated reflux, a short intra-mural ureter suggests the value of a repeated cystography.

[Severe urinary tract and cutaneous lesions after umbilical cord artery puncture and direct injection of hypertonic sodium bicarbonate to the newborn in the delivery room. Report of three cases (author's transl)].

Three cases of necrotizing and calcifying lesions of low urinary tract, buttock and adjacent perineum are reported. These lesions have been induced by direct syringe injection into an umbilical artery of 42% sodium bicarbonate solution at the dose of 5 to 6 ml/kg of body weight. Radiographic examinations are very important to study the urinary tract lesions. These have been surgically controlled in two cases. The follow up ranges from 10 to 21 1/2 months. On the bladder initial necrotizing lesions are followed by calcification and parietal retraction. These bladder lesions induce a more or less important ureterohydronephrosis. To these constant lesions are variably associated urethral calcifications and stenosis, distal ureter calcifications. These lesions seem to be related to the sodium bicarbonate hyperosmolality, to the injection conditions, and to the local hemodynamic features.

[A new orthopedic apparatus for the treatment of congenital equinovarus clubfoot. The active-passive articulated splint. Critical study propos of 72 cases treated in our department].

The authors present a new equipment for orthopaedic assesment of club-foot. This "dynamic splint" aims to produce a self-correction of the deformity by the infant at time of each movement of his lower limb. With regard to 72 such deformities, concerning 47 children, they record the results after an average follow-up of more than 2 years. Criterions of results, clinical and chiefly radiological, more objectives, are classified into 3 parts : correction of varus of the foot, correction of adduction of the hind-foot, correction of equinus.

[Towards reasoned early surgical treatment for hiatal hernia in the infant (author's transl)].

The authors report 2 cases of HH and MCT in newborn of 1 1/2 and 5 months old who quickly develop a peptic stenosis despite a good medical treatment. Reviewing 51 cases of early surgical treatment (29 cases operated on before 2 months of age), they estimate legitimal an early surgical treatment for HH and MCT in newborn. They insist on the necessity to begin with a rigourous medical treatment, which cannot exceed one month if an oesophagitis persist (documented by a good and acurate endoscopic examination). This examination is the guide line for the surgical indication and is more acurate than the clinical and radiological informations. They point out the absence of mortality and the improvement of the results if the patients are operated on before 2 months old. In the literature ones can observe that the incidence of recurrence and peptic stenosis is decreased when the patients are operated on early.

[Congenital pyloric atresia. Report of three cases (author's transl)].

Congenital pyloric atresia is a relatively unusual condition. From three cases the authors point out the diagnosis basis. The main clinical findings are hydramnios, early non bilious vomiting and epigastric distension. Diagnosis is based upon abdominal plain films. They demonstrate an air dilated stomach, and no air distal to the pylorus. When films can be taken in the upright position, they demonstrate a single intragastric air-fluid level. Radiologic findings are essential, because surgical inspection alone fails to demonstrate membranous atresia and cordonal atresia which are more frequent than total atresia. In the two former conditions, radiologic findings lead the surgeon to look for the obstruction by the mean of a catheter introduced by a juxta-pyloric antrotomy.

[Meningioma of the scalp. Apropos of a case].

The authors report a case of scalp meningioma in a five-months old baby. The mass was removed totally and the following neuroradiological studies proved the absence of an intracranial meningioma. They present the histogenesis of the meningioma and Lopez's classification.
