[The problem of malignant branchioma. A description of three cases of degeneration or epitheliomatous metastasis within amygdaloid cervical cysts (author's transl)].

The authors describe three cases of malignant degeneration observed within amygdaloid cysts in two male and one female patient aged sixty. In one of the cases in which the cyst had been present for more than two years, there was apparently some primary degeneration, the theory favoured was that of Veau's malignant branchioma; two other cases showed metastasis of a homolateral tonsillar epithelioma within an hitherto sub-clinical amygdaloid cyst.

[Posttraumatic real and false Mendelson's syndromes].

Six observations of post-traumatic acute respiratory insufficiency of alveolar origin are reported briefly. Three of them have been attributed to a Mendelson's syndrome. This authors showed that diagnosing these lung diseases by acid inhalation is particularly difficult in casualties. It is a diagnosis by elimination which no certainty can prop. These post-traumatic Mendelson's syndrome are serious and difficult to prevent. In the three cases reported two accidents occurred during or immediately after an intubation. The systematic use of an efficient anti-acid could be recommended in all serious casualities.
