Importance of blood clotting tests in the diagnosis of haemolytic-uremic syndrome and experience with its treatment.

More than half of 33 children with HUS were less than a year old, 90% less than five. A constant laboratory finding was the presence of FDP in the blood and urine, and of the remaining tests the presence of erythrocyte fragments. The absence of thrombocytopenia does not eliminate HUS. Antiplatelet treatment was given to 94% of children, heparin to 94%, thrombolysis to 27% Precise evaluation of treatment would require a controlled prospective multicentre study.

[Cytological and electron microscopy diagnosis of neuroblastoma].

Out of three cases of neuroblastoma under observation, the diagnosis could be established from the cytological and electron microscopical examinations of bone marrow in two of them. Slide smears revealed the rosette-shaped pattern characteristic of malignant neuroblastoma, many of which were fitted with dendritic plasmatic processes. Electronography helped to prove intraplasmatically the presence in those cells of dense neurosecretory granules, and--in their plasmatic processes--the presence of microfilaments, microtubules, neurosecretory granules and empty vesicules.
