[Fanconi's disease associated with hepato-splenic peliosis (author's transl)].

The authors report a case of Fanconi's disease equilibrated for a period of 8 years by androgen therapy. The patient died after interruption of treatment; the clinical picture comprised hepatomegaly, jaundice, pancytopenia. The autopsy showed hepato-splenic peliosis and acute tuberculosis. The subject of peliosis is brought up to date by a thorough review of current literature and the relationships between steroid treatment and hepatic complications are discussed.

[Fistula between right pulmonary artery and left atrium. A case report and review of the literature (author's transl)].

The communication between right pulmonary artery and left atrium is a very uncommon cause of right to left shunt. The 18th case in the world literature and the first case in France is reported here. Normal pressure in the right cavities and in pulmonary artery is evocative. Angiography assesses the diagnosis and precises the place and connections of the fistula. Surgical closing of the fistula must be promptly achieved in order to obviate embolic complications.
