[Multiple gastrointestinal polyps].

A case of a ten year old adopted girl is presented, who had gastrointestinal disturbances, anal pruritus and relapses of urticaria from her fourth year of age. By means of radiological and endoscopis analysis, multiple gastrointestinal polyposis was established. Pathohistological examination of the polyp indicated that tubular adenomas were in question, therefore in the case of this girl it can be stated that she has diffuse tubular gastrointestinal adenomatous polyposis, which is a characteristic of Gardner's syndrome. At the moment of the setting of the diagnosis, the girl had no skin changes nor did she have any radiological changes on the bones of her skull. The first skin changes appeared one year after the diagnosis was set, and they were in the form of maculopapular nodules, comedos of the closed and open type on the forehead and chin.

[Postural disorders as risk factors for the onset of degenerative diseases of the spine in meat-processing workers].

The authors present a postural finding in 150 workers of the meat industry. The frequency of lumbar painful syndromes is 28.66%, and 6.66% for chronic cervical pain. In 97 workers without painful syndromes of the spine there were 63.9% of cases with a proper posture between the ages of 30 and 39 years. Kyphotic backs (21.9%) appear at the age of 50 to 59 years. In 53 workers with a clinically manifest degenerative disease, 13.2% of cases had a proper posture. In this group the percentage of persons with kyphotic backs was 50.9% in the age group of 30 to 39 years. Scolosis was present in 13.2% of cases. The authors suggest an individual approach to kinesitherapy, on the basis of a previous postural analysis of each patient. They emphasize the need for the reduction of excessive weight and give an important role to the education of workers, according to the ergonomic requirements of the work place. The authors point to the problem and the necessity of preventing postural disorders as early as the school age.
