[Hernias of the diaphragmatic hiatus: Personal observation].

The authors report a new personal observation of hernia of the diaphragm hiatus. It is a rare, benign abnormality, generally asymptomatic, raising the diagnostic problem of posterior mediastinal opacities : pneumoperitoneum, retropneumoperitoneum and even pleuroscopy should enable a diagnostic and hence prevent a thoracotomy.

[Blood immunoglobulin deficiencies during bronchial asthma in the adult].

The study of serous immunoglobulins of 500 asthmatic patients enabled the authors to discover a deficit in one of the Ig in 93 cases (18.6%), mainly in cases of intrinsic allergic asthma with an important or dominant infectious character, or microbial asthma. It concerned partial shortages of usually only one Ig in each patient, mostly the IgG. The importance of these deficits is discussed, particularly in the origin of bacterial sensitivity of these asthmas and in the genesis of atopy. The problem of IgG reagins is also discussed. Practical deductions drawn form these findings are envisaged.

[Pulmonary complications of azotemia. A case of uremic lung].

The authors studied the problem of pulmonary complications in acute and chronic uremia. They recalled the main characteristics of haemodynamic oedemas which can accompany the periods of left ventricular insufficiency during the evolution of uremia. They analized the characteristicsof the classic uremic lung representing in fact only a variety of lesional oedema in which the toxic effect of urea is controversial. Ventilatory consequences of chronic uremia were briefly exposed.

[Surgical pulmonary biopsy under local anesthesia and its results (based on 93 cases)].

The authors report 93 observations during which OCB were performed under local anesthesia. They insist on the validity of the method which can be used on fragile patients or on those with respiratory insufficiency for whom an exploring thoracotomy would be contra-indicated. Incidents were minor and momentary (pneumothorax, pleural reaction). It is mostly in diffuse lesions of miliary and fibrotic nature that this technique was used to identify various lesions : silicosis, sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, histiocytosis, etc... In a third of the cases, lesions were not specific and could not be definitely identified in parieto-alveolar fibrosis or inflammatory alveolitis.
