[Encapsulating peritonitis disclosing primary melanoma of the small intestine: a case report].

Encapsulating peritonitis is a chronic peritonitis leading to the constitution of the thick white nacred fibrosis membrane. It is a rare affection. Its physiopathology is poorly elucidated. Diagnosis is usually at operation. We report an unpublished case of a 36-year-old patient, admitted for an abdominal mass. The different investigations demonstrated small bowel tumor with entrapped ileal and jejunal loops within a capsule. Diagnosis was made at the time of operation by discovering an encapsulating peritonitis caused by a primary malignant melanoma of the small bowel, which is an exceptional affection.

[Encapsulated papillary carcinoma of the thyroid gland. Particular histological aspect of a case with review of the literature].

The authors report a case of encapsulated papillary neoplasm in the right lobe of the thyroid of a 36-year-old woman. This neoplasm was a papillary encapsulated carcinoma with variable histologic patterns not properly described in the literature. In the light of a review of the literature, the authors stress the macroscopic and histologic aspects of this tumor and they discuss the prognosis and therapeutic tools used to cure this neoplasm.

[Adrenal myelolipoma].

The authors report a case of myelolipoma discovered in a 57 year-old woman by ultrasonography and computed tomography. The tumour was 10 cm in diameter and weighed 350 grams. This case is discussed in the light of a review of the literature.

Adrenal Gland Neoplasms↗

[Melanotic schwannoma. A case with review of the literature].

The authors report a case of melanotic schwannoma in a 46-year-old man after 2 years of bilateral sciatica. Surgical removal was incomplete, because of the posterior site of the tumor. The patient was alive and well, 2 years after surgical removal, with some surgical sequelae. The authors stress the diagnostic difficulties of this melanotic and review the previously reported cases in a comparative study.

Bone Neoplasms↗

[Bladder pheochromocytoma and pregnancy. A case report].

The authors report the case of a 31-year old patient who successfully completed a pregnancy despite unsuspected bladder pheochromocytoma. After delivery, the patient required care post-partum due to serious hemodynamic problems. Hypertension had been attributed to toxemia of pregnancy. The authors recall the diagnostic difficulties of tumors of this type, and the means which can be used for topographical diagnosis and the precautions to be taken before this tumor can be treated surgically.

[Malignant fibrous histiocytoma with giant cells of the skin. Anatomoclinical and immunohistochemical study of a case].

The authors report a case of malignant giant cell soft tissue tumor which appeared as a skin tumor of the thigh in a Tunisian women aged 17 years. Immunohistochemical study showed that the giant cells recognized KP1 antibody, while spindle interstitial cells reacted with anti-factor XIIIa antibody. The patient is alive and well eighteen months after large surgical removal. Two similar cases have been reported in the literature. Differential diagnosis, histogenesis and prognosis of this rare tumor are discussed.

[Correlation between epithelioid sarcoma and poorly differentiated fibroblastic synovialosarcoma].

The authors report an original case of tendosynovial sarcoma localizated in the side of the palm of the hand of an eight year old child. This tumor has two morphological forms. One is characteristic of undifferentiated synovialosarcoma, and the other of epitheloid sarcoma. The immuno-histochemical study confirms the diagnosis of undifferentiated synovialosarcoma. On the basis of this case and with reference to the literature, the authors suggest that epithelioid sarcoma and synovialosarcoma constitute the same entity.

[Gastric xanthelasma. Apropos of 2 of our cases].

On the basis of two personal cases and a review of the literature, we have attempted to define endoscopic and histologic features in gastric xanthelasma. The various etiopathogenic hypotheses published in the literature are reviewed and others are suggested. Attention is drawn to the differential diagnosis with mucus-secreting cell carcinoma. Use of stains for mucus in such lesions is recommended to confirm the diagnosis.

[Thoracic computed tomography data and cytology of the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in an adult case of Niemann-Pick disease. The physiognomy of the disease in Tunisia].

From a personal observation of a case of the chronic type-B form Niemann-Pick's disease in a 23 year old adult, the authors decided to review all the Tunisian published cases. They bring to light, in a review of the literature, the pulmonary disorder that occurs during this disease and discuss the contribution of computed tomography and the value of broncho-alveolar lavage as a method of diagnosis and prognosis in this disorder.

[Ewing's sarcoma. Retrospective study of 108 cases with review of the literature].

108 cases of Ewing's Sarcoma are collected at the "Curie Institute" and studied by the authors using the modern Technics of electron microscopy, cytochemistry, immunohistochemistry and cytogenetics. They raise the histogenesis and etiological factors not entirely resolved yet at the light of literature review.
