[Contribution of perfusion magnetic resonance imaging in a patient with cerebral ganglioglioma].
A 48-year-old woman was admitted to the Neurosurgery Department for a large frontal lobe tumor revealed by partial seizures. The patient was conscious and alert. Neurological examination was normal. MRI study showed a right frontal lobe tumor compounded of an anterior solid mass strongly enhanced after gadolinium injection and a posterior voluminous cyst with important mass effect. The cerebral blood volume (CBV) map showed no area of elevated CBV within the tumor consistent with a low-grade tumor. The patient was operated on with a presumed diagnosis of anaplastic oligodendroglioma. Postoperative course was uneventful. Histopathological examination was consistent with a benign ganglioglioma. The patient did not undergo an additional treatment. One year later, the patient was healthy and neurological and neuropsychological examination were normal. MRI study did not show any recurrence. This case emphazises the relevance of perfusion MR imaging in the preoperative workup of glioneuronal and glial tumors.

[Superficial bone metastases: report of two cases from colonic origin].
Two cases of superficial bony metastases from colonic adenocarcinoma are reported. The plain film, CT and MR features are presented. The diagnostic imaging features and differential diagnosis are discussed. Superficial bony metastases are rare (2% of bony metastases) and only the characteristics of cortical bone vascularization allow to understand the superficial origin at the level of the cortex or subperiosteum. Magnetic resonance imaging is the modality of choice to characterize the tumor site and local extension. Diagnosis is suspected by clinical history and confirmed at biopsy.

[Attempted suicide and menstrual cycle. An epidemiologic study].
Relations between suicidal behaviours and menstrual cycle have been studied by various authors with different methodologies, from which miscellaneous and contradictory results. We have taken this relation again, about suicide attempts admitted in Dijon's emergency department. Were recorded for each suicidal woman aged 15 to 49 their sociodemographical and gynecological characteristics. The same data were collected among women admitted in such circumstances for various pathologies except suicidal disorders. Cases and witnesses were distributed in an ideal cycle of 28 days with the method called cycle adjusting. Statistic analysis reveals a significant difference between cases and witnesses for pre-ovulatory period but don't resist to the maximum bias hypothesis. Finally, our study emphasizes without our knowing, for the population concerned, cases and witnesses alike, an increase hospital-going during pre-ovulatory period.

[Guignol or the comedian's paradox].
Our study is based on a puppet theatre performed with a group of children aged from six to eight who were experiencing a neurotic context. Guignol's playing reveals anguishes and defensive mechanisms as well as, regarding the actors, the ability to experience the comedy with authenticity without forgetting it is imaginary. The puppet theatre has allowed us to progress in a therapeutic process while continuing diagnostic exploration.
