The construction of a prototype apparatus adapted to the constraints of tissue structures has permitted not only the quantification of fibrosis within the liver but also analysis of its distribution. The cumulative histograms thus achieved permit the characterization of the liver in Hodgkin's disease.

The authors present a study of 38 cases of renal malacoplakia, two of which are personal. The clinical roentgenological and pathological data of such a histologically defined disease are reviewed. Nosological and physiopathological recollection is necessary before discussing management.
The authors report a personal case of ileocaecal intussusception in an adult, revealing a benign lipoma of the last ileal loop. A review of the available bibliography was made emphasizing the essential characteristics of this rare type of lesion.
We report a case of hepatic and splenic angiosarcoma in a 34 year-old man presenting with hemoperitoneum and consumption coagulopathy. Histological and immunohistological diagnosis was based on a biopsy specimen obtained through the transjugular route. Embolization via the splenic artery for the most significant lesions and intravenous chemotherapy resulted in a partial response in the liver and splenic tumour masses and survival with a good quality of life. The initial complications recurred after chemotherapy was stopped and death occurred after 15 months. The benefit of arterial embolization and chemotherapy in this rare and usually rapidly fatal disease should be assessed in other patients.
