[Auriculotemporal syndrome].

After a survey of the literature about etiological and physiopathological data or hypothesis, the different therapeutic possibilities are quoted. According to our experience we describe the occurrence of the Auriculotemporal Syndrome in a total of 157 parotidectomies performed in our clinic during the past seven years. One single post-traumatic case is commented. About 30% of our post-parotidectomic patients were incommodated by the syndrome, more specifically as an aggravating transpiration in the temporal region during meals. The greater number of patients experienced a distinct improvement applying a simple Scopolamin-salve; as a result we prefer this conservative therapy to a more aggressive treatment. However, whether we could prevent the appearance of the syndrome by using a more subtle surgical technique particularly in the region of the preauricular blood vessels, remains an open question.

[Basal cell nevus syndrome with sinus involvement].

The characteristics of the basal cell naevus syndrome are multiple basal cell naevi and basal cell carcinomas, cysts of the jaws, anomalies of ribs and vertebra, intracranial calcification and striking deformities of the skull, usually with a positive family anamnesis. We will discuss symptomatology, histopathology and therapy. A flemish family, where the syndrome occurs with the mother and her four children, three of whom are admitted in hospital nearly simultaneously with sinusitis maxillaris, are discussed in extenso. Also, the occurrence of the syndrome's stigmata in other members of the family is noted.
