[Value of urgent ultrasonography after renal injuries. A report on 12 cases (author's transl)].

The results of ultrasonography recordings carried out urgently in 12 patients after renal trauma are used by the authors as a basis for outlining the ultrasonography features discovered in post-traumatic renal lesions, and for discussing the value and place of this examination in overall investigations of these lesions. Ultrasonography findings are compared with those of intravenous urography, and in certain cases with those of arteriography. Ultrasonography appears to be indispensable in many cases in order to confirm intravenous urography results, to complement them, and possibly to make up for their deficiencies. It is of particular value in 2 conditions: a) renal artery thrombosis, in which case it is the only examination capable of supplying information on the parenchyma, b) benign renal contusions which may not appear on intravenous urography.

[Scanography of the femoropatellar space. Study plan (author' transl)].

A theoretical plan for scanographic study of the femoropatellar space is proposed, based on the examination of 60 normal knees. The investigation is conducted at 15 degrees and is adapted to the morphology of the femoropatellar space, with the assistance of a "Scout view". Patellar rolling is evaluated before and after quadriceps contraction during indifferent and external rotation. The spatial resolution of the new apparatuses and the adaptation of the plane of the section should permit valid study of the femoropatellar articular cartilages. The operative decision should be based on both the results of scanography and clinical examinations.

[Bone locations of systemic mastocytosis: radiological and scintigraphic study (author's transl)].

Bone radiological signs in six cases of systemic mastocytosis are described: lesions may be diffuse or circumscribed and of the condensation and/or rarefaction type. In most cases, however, the lesions are of the mixed type. Bone mastocytosis may occur without any cutaneous lesions and this emphasizes the value, from the diagnostic point of view, of radiological examinations of the skeleton. Diagnosis is defined and confirmed by three features: the association of condensing lesions and bone rarefactions in different regions of the skeleton; the presence of mastocytic proliferation in stained biopsy specimens from the posterior iliac bone which is not decalcified; fixation of 99m tc pyrophosphate in the axial skeleton on scintigraphy.
