[Malignant anorectal melanoma. Apropos 1 case].

A case of malignant anorectal melanoma is reported, which was treated by anorectal-sigmoid amputation, operation which did not prevent the occurrence, after 6 months, of metastases in the inguinal lymph nodes. On the basis of the reported case, the main etiological, histogenetic, prognostic and therapeutic aspects of these rare tumours are discussed.

[Metastatic chorionepithelioma--a rare cause of digestive hemorrhage].

The authors present the case of a female patient aged 19 years with chorionepithelioma, multiple pulmonary metastases, and an unique intestinal metastasis, complicated by severe digestive haemorrhage and haemoperitoneum. Surgery was carried out in risky conditions and consisted in segmental enterectomy and subtotal hysterectomy, and bilateral adnexectomy. The postoperative evolution was unsatisfactory, and the patient died following continued digestive bleeding, probably due to coagulation disturbances induced by prolonged loss of blood. Although the disease is encountered and treated in ob-gyn departments, the general surgeon can be confronted by such complications of this affection which may take on extremely severe aspects, and where surgery, provided that is performed sufficiently early, can save the patient's life.

[Sacrococcygeal teratoma in the adult].

Problems of diagnosis, classification, and histologic definition, as well as possibilities of evolution are discussed, of teratomas or of tumours resulting from the disturbed development of the sacro-coccygeal area, in connection with a case of recidivating sacro-coccygeal teratoma in a woman aged 40 years. The therapeutic principles are also discussed The risk of malignant degeneration of these lesions, in parallel with their evolution in time, make necessary surgical exeresis immediately after making the diagnosis. Surgery should be performed with a maximum amount of comfort, under general anesthesia, preferably in the Kraske position, in view of the complete extirpation of pathological tissues. Resection of the coccyx and of the last sacral vertebrae allows to widen the approach, facilitating the complete exeresis, and avoiding the two risks which are characteristic for this intervention: lesion of the rectum, and haemorrhage which is difficult to control. The postoperative aspiratory draining is useful for the favourable evolution of the wound.
