[Primary mycotic aneurysm of the abdominal aorta from salmonella injection. A new case successfully operated upon (author's transl)].

A double aneurism, located in the abdominal aorta and left common iliac was found complicating a salmonella typhimurium infection which had been present for 7 months. A by-pass operation between the inaffected iliac arteries was followed by resection of the two aneurisms. Cultures taken from the walls of the aneurisms showed the presence of salmonella typhimurium. The authors stress the particular seriousness of the spontaneous evolution of such mycotic aneurisms.

[Coronary artery spasms].

In a series of 2000 coronary arteriographies, spasm of the coronary artery was found in 52 cases, which were divided into three groups: 41 cases of "iatrogenic" spasm caused by stimulating the ostium of the coronary artery (usually the right) with the tip of the catheter; 8 cases of spasm on top of an organic fixed lesion; 4 cases of coronary spasm on a coronary artery which was reported as "radiologically normal". The study includes a review of the circumstances which favour or impede discovery of coronary spasm, as well as a provocation test using methyl ergometrine. This test seems to be specific in that it only produced coronary spasm in patients with Prinzmetal's syndrome, and excluded the cases of angina with normal coronary arteriography. The patients with spasm on top of a fixed organic lesion underwent a successful aorto-coronary bypass graft together with resection of the pre- and sub-aortic nerve plexus. Patients with a spasm in an artery which was "arteriographically normal" were treated medically by nitrate compounds and vaso-dilators. Three of these patients had an excellent result with medical treatment. Treatment failed in the fourth patient, who then obtained benefit from straight-forward resection of the pre- and sub-aortic nerve plexus with an excellent result which has been maintained for over six months.

[Hemodynamic effects and effects on plasma renin activity of injectable acebutolol in arterial hypertension].

The purpose of the study was to determine the early haemodynamic effects of injectable acebutolol and to study in parallel the changes in plasma renin activity (P.R.A.) in 11 patients, most of whom were affected with labile arterial hypertension. The haemodynamic measurements and P.R.A. determinations were carried out before and 5 and 15 mn after very slow intravenous injection of 10 mg acebutolol. The results obtained under these conditions were as follows: 1) Decrease in cardiac index (I.C.). It was particularly significant after 5 mn, since the I.C. decreased from 4.43 to 3.75 1/mm (p less than .01). It was essentially due to a decrease in heart rate, that fell from 90.45 to 77 beats/mn (p less than .001), while stroke volume changed virtually not. 2) Decrease in blood pressure, more marked on systolic blood pressure (110 mm Hg after 15 mn as against 154 mm Hg before injection; p less than .001), associated with a decrease in left ventricular work (4.7 kgm/mn/m2 after 5 mn as against 6.2 kgm/mn/m2 before injection; p less than .001), without significant changes in total systemic arterial resistances. 3) Increase in diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure (10.4 mm Hg after 5 mn against 8.09 mm Hg before injection; p less than .001), testifying to a slight left ventricular myocardial depression. 4) Decrease in supine P.R.A. level (0.72 nanogram/1/mn after 5 mn as against 1.15 nanogram/1/min before injection; p less than .01). A significant correlation was found between this decrease in P.R.A. and that in I.C., testifying to a close parallelism between the inhibition of cardiac beta-1 receptors and that of the receptors involved in renine secretion. 5) The tolerance of injectable acebutolol appeared to us to be excellent.

[Aneurysms of the membranous septum. Apropos of 4 cases].

Three cases of aneurysm of the membranous septum were diagnosed in vivo. The fourth case was discovered at post-mortem examination in a patient who had a conductive disorder. These four cases give us reason to review the anatomical, clinical, radiological and haemodynamic features of this condition.
