[Abdominal localizations of von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis: apropos of a false uterine leiomyosarcoma].

This article reports the surprising history of a patient presenting a von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis. Ten years after a full program of radio- and chemotherapy for a so-called invasive uterine leiomyosarcoma, the diagnosis of intestinal neurofibromatosis is finally established and the patient is surgically cured. The authors discuss the difficulties of the histologic diagnosis and the aid of the recent techniques of immunohistochemical markers. The second part of the article provides the actual clinical classification of the different types of neurofibromatosis with their diagnostic approach. It also offers a review of the literature concerning the intestinal location of the disease and the potential risks of cancer formation.

[Gentleness in ENT: optimalization of drug therapy].

Presentation of 5 drug strategies relating to the realm of E.N.T. permitting a therapeutic approach both effective and comfortable. 1. Avoidance of oto-toxic antibiotics and antiseptics, especially in case of underlying pathology. 2. Reasoning for endonasal administration of topical (corticoids, vaso-constrictors, anticholinergics) and systemic (Suprefact, Minrin, Miacalcic, Diergo) drugs. 3. Importance of oral administration of a new mucolytic, Surbronc which improves the muco-ciliary clearance by means of an increased synthesis of the "Surface Tension Lowering Substance". 4. Avoidance of abusive tonsillectomies in recurrent pharyngo-tonsillitis failing to penicillin treatment, due to the "indirect pathogenic phenomenon". 5. Optimalization of nonmorphinic oral analgesics with acetaminophen (in monotherapy or in association) and morphinic ones by anticipative and repetitive administration.

[Pseudogout in a perspiring farmer].

A diagnostic argument in favour of brucellosis can be depicted in the various appearances of osteo-articular complications providing that one has at one's disposal the correct case history (exposure to contagion), some hemocultures (positive in nearly 60% of acute and subacute cases) and a battery of serological tests. Arthritis of the big toe is exceptional in this context, be it in the severe and destructive form or in the mild and transient form. The authors describe a case of this latter type in a farmer and present a review of the literature concerning the osteo-articular complications of Brucellosis.
