The authors report a case of idiopathic, chronic inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (S I A D H) in a 31 months old boy. This inappropriate secretion of ADH was demonstrated by three water tolerance tests and by the bioassays of ADH in urine. These findings were detected five months later suggesting chronic S I A D H. After a review of the literature the mechanism and the treatment of this disease are discussed.

The characteristics and evolution of 15 HLA B 27 positive children presenting a chronic arthritis have been studied. Most typical was an asymmetric oligoarthritis usually of the lower limbs, particularly the knees, in a boy over 10 years old. This symptomatology resembles juvenile ankylosing spondylitis of peripheral onset. Follow up is not yet long énough to allow definite assimilation.
