[Results of 3 or 10 days' treatment with nitrofurantoin or cotrimoxazole in urinary infections in children].

110 children, affected by UTI, were included in this study; 52 of them were treated for 10 days and the remaining 58 for 3 days. Both groups were treated with cotrimoxazole or nitrofurantoin. Urine cultures were repeated soon after the end of therapy and repeated subsequently for a period of 6 months or of 1 year. There is not a great difference between the results obtained with the 10 days treatment and those of the 3 days treatment. An high percentage of relapses occurred in UTI caused by Proteus and Klebsiella.

[An anomaly in Poland. A description of a clinical case of a three years and four months-old boy].

The authors describe Poland's anomaly in a boy aged three years and four months, characterised by a depression in the right hemithorax caused by the absence of the medial extremity of the large pectoral muscle with hypoplasia of the remaining venter musculi. Moreover, the scan showed the absence of the small homolateral pectoral muscle. The vascular alteration of the subclavian artery and/or its branches during embryogenesis might be related, in this case, to the fact that the mother took sex hormones during the 6th and 7th week of gestation.
