[Early auditory evoked potentials in spinocerebellar heredodegenerative involvement].

Results of early auditory evoked potentials, recorded during exploration of spinocerebellar heredodegenerative lesions (21 cases of Friedreich's disease, 8 cases of Pierre-Marie's disease and 3 cases of Strumpell-Lorraine disease), are analyzed. Tracings showed alteration of auditory BER whereas tonal audiometry was normal. Analysis of BER demonstrated lengthening of the latency periods, a rise in thresholds without latency period increases and a tracing that was sometimes flat or with waves that were difficult to recognize.

[Congenital syphilis. Apropos of 3 cases with early neonatal manifestations].

Three patients with early congenital syphilis are described. A slight degree of prematurity was a common feature. Symptomatology consisted in a combination of various lesions of the skin, bones, respiratory and nervous systems. Despite prompt initiation of therapy with penicillin, one patient died a few hours after birth. Another patient's death was attributed to a secondary Klebsiella overinfection. This demonstrates the severity of the syphilitic injury for the newborn infant when it manifests itself at birth.
