[Human "pancreatic" bladder. Two case reports].

The aim of this study is to report two similar cases with an "accessory biliary duct" confluent to the main pancreatic duct. There was pancreatic juice inside the "gallbladder". There was no connection between "accessory biliary duct" and intra or extrahepatic biliary ducts. This anomalous junction of the "cystic duct" and the main pancreatic duct may be explained by embryology. These two cases could be the first human "pancreatic" bladders reported.

[Differed autologous blood transfusion in the "G" point hospital in Bamako. Prospective study apropos of 40 cases].

With a sample of 40 patients, the authors conducted a prospective case-control study on the feasibility of differed autologous blood transfusion at Point "G" National Hospital in Bamako, Mali. The method has been accepted by all the patients. No clinical nor biological trouble has been reported by the patients themselves. The authors recommend the use of autologous blood transfusion by other hospital units and the development of regulations governing its implementation.

[Ectopic spleens. About a spleen of the right iliac fossa (author's transl)].

A rare case of the presence of the spleen in the right iliac fossa is reported. The frequency and signs of ectopic and supernumerary spleens are described, the latter requiring differentiation from peritoneal splenosis. An embryological explanation for the presence of the spleen in the right iliac fossa is suggested.
