[Role of ultrasonography and ultrasound-guided puncture in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma].

This retrospective study was undertaken to assess the place and efficacy of ultrasonography, and ultrasound-guided biopsy in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma in a series of 34 patients. The sonographic signs were not specific, as tumor patterns were very different from one case to another; there were no pathognomonic signs of hepatocellular carcinoma in comparison with hepatic metastases. Tissue characterization of the liver abnormalities was obtained by percutaneous ultrasound-guided biopsies. In our experience, ultrasonography has a double role: demonstration of hepatic nodules, particularly in high risk patients (cirrhosis); histologic identification of the nodules by ultrasound-guided biopsy.

[Surgical widening of strictures in the small intestine in Crohn disease].

Twenty-two stricture plasties were performed in five patients with multiple stenosis of the small intestine due to Crohn's disease. Immediate post-operative results were satisfactory but progressive degradation followed. These findings are similar to those reported in the literature on this technique which does not give better results than other methods since none have an effect on the clinical course of the disease. The only advantage is to decrease the amount of intestinal mutilation.

Pancreatic localization of a Castleman's tumour.

Castleman's tumour is a rare anatomo-clinical entity. Most cases of Castleman's tumour occur in the mediastinum. The histopathology demonstrates benign angiofollicular lymph node hyperplasia. The pancreatic localization is uncommon and has only been reported once. We describe a new case with literature review.
