[Multifocal neuropathy with persistent conduction block].

Multifocal neuropathy, recently individualized, is characterized by progressive, asymmetrical lesions predominant in the upper limbs and associated with multifocal and persistent conduction block. Two clinical presentations have been identified: sensorimotor multineuritis and pure motor form which may mimick an anterior grey horn disease. The pathophysiology of the syndrome and the significance of its frequent association with the antibody to GM1 ganglioside remain debated. Various treatments have been tried with inconstant results.

[Treatment using an endo-urologic approach of stenoses following uretero-intestinal anastomosis].

Twenty-one strictures following uretero-digestive anastomoses were treated by percutaneous transrenal dilatation. In 20 cases, an Olbert type angioplasty balloon on a guidewire was used. Rigid coaxial dilators were used in one patient after failure of the preceding technique and an electroincision was performed prior to dilatation in the remaining case. Overall, percutaneous transrenal dilatation was successful in nine patients, whereas ten dilatations failed and two patients are undergoing continued modeling with a mean follow-up of 16 months (range 1-42 months). Success rates by type of anastomosis were as follows: Bricker 5/12; Coffey 1/4; enterocystoplasty 2/4 and ureteroileovesical anastomosis 1/1. The date of development of the stricture, duration of modeling, and caliber of the indwelling catheter were apparently without influence on results. Because morbidity is low with percutaneous transrenal dilatation, this technique is advocated as first-line treatment, with surgery being reserved to failures.
