[Effects of diets rich in triglycerides and phospholipids on lipase and phospholipase A activities in rat pancreatic juice and pancreas].

Lipase and phospholipase A activities were increased in the pancreas and pancreatic juice of rats ingesting during two months 20% phospholipids- or triglycerides-rich diets. The activity of lipase is higher with the triglycerides-rich diet and the phospholipase A activity is higher with the phospholipids-rich diet. After seven days of the experiment, these two enzymes activities were less increased with diet containing 40% lipids.

[Operative trauma of the common bile duct. Report of eight cases (author's transl)].

The authors report eight cases of operative trauma to the common bile duct; seven patients were sent up for reoperation often during the late stages following an attempt at immediate or secondary repair. Emphasis was placed on the interest of extensive resection of the stenosis and wide and high opening of the common bile duct for construction of the bilio-jejunal anastomosis, and furthermore the late risk of onset of portal hypertension requiring portacaval anastomosis, finally the possible degradation of the good initial results requiring difficult reoperations.

[Medullary carcinomas of the thyroid. General review apropos of 3 further cases].

The authors report of three cases of medullary carcinoma of the thyroid and, from a review of the literature, study the definition, frequency, embryological and etiological characteristics of this disease. The physiology of thyrocalcitonin, the concept of the APUD system the secretion of active substances by the tumour cells are considered. The macroscopic and microscopic characteristics and its mode of spread are described. The two main clinical forms, the sporadic form and the familial form are described together with the other endocrine involvements. Among the factors in positive diagnosis, accent is placed on per-operative histological examination and on biological tests of familial detection. Among the forms of treatment the essential place of surgery explains partly the relatively favourable course and prognosis of the malignant disease.

[Effects of isoproteic and lipid rich diets on lipase, phospholipase A2, cholesterolesterase, trypsin and amylase activities in rat pancreatic juice and pancreas (author's transl)].

Isoproteic and lipid-rich diets containing about 15 or 20 % of sun flower triglyceride or soya phospholipids given to rats for 8 weeks were observed to increase lipase, phospholipase A2 and trypsin synthesis in the pancreas phospholipase A2 and trypsin synthesis in the pancreas and the activities of these enzymes in the pancreatic juice (Tables IV, V). Smaller effects are observed after 15 day administration of diets containing 40 % of triglycerids or phospholipids ; these diets decreased the ADN content of pancreas.

[Large non-secreting islet cell adenomas. Review of the literature].

The authors report a case of benign non secretory islet cell tumour. Ten other cases of this type were found in the literature. These non-functional tumours évolve without symptoms and are rarely diagnosed in the presence of an abdominal mass. They are usually discovered at autopsy. Clinical examination and further investigation do not always demonstrate the pancreatic origin of the tumour observed. Treatment is surgical consisting of removal of the tumour. Pathological examination leads to the diagnosis of non-secretory islet cell tumour which is usually benign; only the course can confirm this.

[Congenital diverticuli of the common bile duct. Review of the literature].

Among congenital dilatations of the common bile duct, a congenital diverticulum of the common bile duct may remain clinically latent for a long period. One case is reported in a 77 year old subject. Precise diagnosis of the disease is often made at operation and on pathological examination. The diverticulum is cured in most cases after surgery which consists of simple removal, but which may sometimes require reconstruction of the common bile duct.
