[Ocular lesions in leprosy (author's transl)].

Modern authors estimate from 47 p. 100 to 78 p. 100 the frequency of ocular lesions in leprosy. This frequency varies according to the duration and type of the disease. These lesions may result from a paralysis of the V or VII cranial nerves, or from a bacteremia, but, more probably, from a spreading of the bacilli from the nasal cavity through the lacrymal ducts. The various lesions of each ocular structure are described with reference to the T. or L. type of leprosy.

[Evolution towards generalization and cancer of a muco-cutaneous leishmaniasis treated with corticoids. (Report of a Chadian case) (author's transl)].

The authors present a case of muco-cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Republic of Chad. In that case, a long duration treatment with corticoids entailed the generalization of the disease in the form of a secondary kala-azar and the appearance of a histiocytosarcoma on the scar left by the oriental sore. Comments on the pathogenesis of leishmaniasis are then exposed.

[Retinopathy due to amino-4-quinoleines group of the synthetic antimalarial drugs (author's transl)].

The use of overdoses of amino-4-quinoleines in non-malarial diseases has demonstrated various toxic actions on eyes. The most severe is retina lesion. Metabolism of these drugs and pathogeny of the lesions are discussed. With regard to aetiology, the main factor is overdose and duration of treatment. Clinical aspects are classified in three phases; the third one is divided in 5 stages. Treatment is only prophylactic.
