[Grawitz tumour in children (author's transl)].

A Grawitz tumour was discovered in a five year old boy. Nephrectomy was performed. The child died four years later in the course of a metastatic generalization. The clinical diagnosis was oriented by haematuria and radiographs which disclosed a calcified tumour at the lower pole of the right kidney. The diagnosis was substantiated by biopsy and morbid anatomy.

[Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Description of a case and literature review].

The authors describe the case of a 7 year old boy who presented an intestinal intussusception due to a large jejunal hamartomatous jejunal polyp. The preoperative diagnosis of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome was based on typical mucocutaneous pigmentation and confirmed by radiological examination including computerized tomography of the abdomen. Following recent data from the literature, a long-term surveillance is justified after diagnosis of this syndrome, since malignant degeneration may occur within the intestinal polyps as well as in other organs.
