[Lupos erythematosus discovered during the course of a toxicodermia (author's transl)].

The authors describes four cases of lupus erythematosus (LE) diagnosed during the course of a medication toxicodermia, which was always acute and variable in its severity (in one case it concerned a Lyell's syndrome). The lupus affection was made evident by the toxicodermia and lupic manifestations may regress spontaneously after recovery from the skin disorder. This emphasizes the value of clinical and biological testing for the presence of LE in severe cases of toxicodermia in women, more particularly immunofluorescent studies of the basal structures in the cutaneous lesions.

[Kaposi's sarcoma simulating a splenolymphatic lymphoma, toxoplasmosis, and terminal cryptococcus infection (author's transl)].

The authors report a case of Kaposi's sarcome (K.S.) characterized by the small degree of cutaneous involvement as opposed to splenic and lymphatic invasion, lymphoplasmocytic infiltration of the bone marrow, and opportunistic infections (toxoplasmosis, and cryptococcosis). The rapid mortal outcome and the anatomoclinical characteristics of the K.S. enable this case to be classified as one of the rare types of malignant K.S. with pseudo-cryptoccosis features.

[Crosti's reticulosis. Report on three cases, one with ultrastructural study (author's transl)].

Crosti's reticulosis is defined as a peculiar form of well-circumscribed, slow developing lymphomas in adults, with a malignant histological picture. Three cases with typical dorsal localisation according to Crosti's first description are reported and the cardinal features of this type of tumour are recalled. One observation includes an ultrastructural study which confirms the malignant nature of histiocytes in this disease. Localisation in back seems not to be exclusive and a study of 32 cases of the literature about other localised cutaneous reticulum cell lymphomas show them similar to Crosti's reticulosis-which authorizes their classification, as was proposed by Thiers in a single group of slow developing circumscribed reticuloses.

[Various aspects of cytomegalovirus infection in the adult].

Cytomegalovirus infection was sought as a routine over a period of two year in 100 patients of which 34 had a suitable constitutional background [corrected] for this type infection (multiple transfusions, malignant disease, immunodepression). The authors attempt to circumscibe the main clinical aspects encountered in adults. They consider the repective diagnostic values of isolation of the virus and serological reactions. They discuss their interpretation during the course of an infection.

Subacute myelocytic leukemia associated with the philadelphia chromosome and supplementary translocation : 9-12.

The authors report a case of subacute myelocytic leukemia presenting some severe aspects. The cytogenetic findings show the Philadelphia chromosome ; t (9-22) and a second translocation between the chromosome 12, and the other chromosome 9 : t (9-12). They think that this second translocation represents a supplementary cytogenetic argument for the isolation of "Subacute myeloid Leukemia with Philadelphia chromosome" within chronic myeloid Leukemia.

[Refractory sideroblastic anemia, three cases with the same extra marker chromosome (47, Mar +) (author's transl)].

Three very similar cases of sideroblastic idiopathic anemia were respectively observed for 105, 57 and 69 months. The cytogenetic blood study was normal. But the medullary genetic findings showed marker extra-chromosome, having the same aspect in each metaphase = 47 Mar +. It was respectively found in 13 mitoses/32, 2/45 and 1/30. The study of chromosome showed that it was not a normal cytogenetic C-chromosome at all, even it seemed to be a C - X type chromosome at first. The long arms had about the same size as the one of the C- type. But the short arms were really shorter. The study on R- bands showed a chromosomic marking unkown so far. The cytogenetic abnormalities described during the sideroblastic idiopathic anemias, the rare sideroblastic idiopathic anemias where were found a C- type chromosome really identified, then the well-defined myeloproliferative disorders having an extra- C chromosome, have been looked over again through the litterature. In each of our three studies we can think that these myelodysplasia are real mysloproliferative disorders because of the same marker extra-chromosome, but even after nine months we did'nt observe any chromosomal sign of blastic transformation.

[Keratosis lichenoides striata associated with a pseudo-sinhum and a neurological picture (author's transl)].

The authors reported a case which does not seem to be possibly related to any known clinical entity; an aspect of keratosis lichenoides striata is associated with an ichthyosiform condition of the trunk and a pseudo-ainhum; there is also a neurological syndrome similar to a multilocular sclerosis. This patient resembles the previous cases of the literature; however there is neither erythema nor any striation at the back of the knees. There is also a pseudo-ainhumm. Concerning this observation, a review of the literature on keratosis lichenoides striata is presented.
