[Striated osteopathy].

Striated osteopathy, a roentgenological entity characterized by longitudinal striations, can occur concomitantly with a number of disorders which should be routinely looked for. There are three types of striated osteopathy. The pure form without severe bone disorders is the form originally reported by Voorhoeve. In the second form, there is a concomitant fibrous dysplasia, such as Jaffe-Lichtenstein-Uehlinger disease, Ollier enchondromatosis, sponastrism dysplasia, or osteopetrosis. This group also includes bone dysplasias with sclerosis such as melorheostosis, osteopecilia, and sclerosis of the base of the skull which is sometimes seen in patients with striated osteopathy. In the third form, striated osteopathy occurs concomitantly with a skin disease such as patchy dermal hypoplasia or hyperpigmented skin lesions.

[Cholelithiasis in childhood].

Ultrasound examination of the abdomen permits us to diagnose in childhood much more bile duct calculi than before. Surgery is not necessary in all cases but a follow-up with ultrasound is usefull.

Persistence of a single pulmonary vein in a child.

Persistence of a single pulmonary vein with normal pulmonary venous return is a rape and unusual radiographic finding. We report such a case with the venous opacity partially visible on the right border of the heart on a plain frontal chest film. MRI showed beautifully the pulmonary vein and can now replace angiocardiography.

[Separation of the distal humeral epiphysis in young children. Radiologic features].

Separation of the distal humeral epiphysis is infrequent in young children. Diagnosis is difficult since the entire condylar region is almost completely composed of cartilage. Marked sequelae occur if the diagnosis is not promptly made and arthrography is required to evaluate the extent of lesions. Two cases in children aged 2 1/2 years and one day are reported.

Pyogenic spondylitis with Scheuermann's disease.

We present the case of a teenager suffering from dorsal and lumbar pain. Imaging modalities diagnosed a lumbar retro-marginal anterior herniation and thoracic spondylitis. Such association has been reported twice in the literature.

[Fractures of the lateral condyle of the elbow in children. Radiologic aspects].

Fractures of the lateral condyle of the humerus classified as type IV in Salter schema are difficult to diagnose when the capitellum is not ossified. Therefore it is necessary to know exactly the radiological lines which are constructed from the humerus and the radius to the capitellum. Diagnosis is also difficult when the ossification center of the capitellum humeri is only slightly displaced. The epiphyseal fracture line which is always visible at surgery can be missed on X-Ray when ossification has not yet appeared. Laminograms are necessary in some cases to be sure that the fracture is displaced. Displaced fractures are always treated by open reduction.
