Virus-associated colitis in homosexual men: two case reports.

Two homosexual men with colitis are described. In each case there was evidence of viral infection of the colon. One patient developed toxic megacolon that responded to conservative therapy. The other patient had proctosigmoiditis and opportunistic infections that eventually led to his death. An intensive search for viruses should be made in all homosexual men with proctitis and/or colitis.

[G2 technic : a simplified procedure of reconstitution of the angle of His, applied to the treatment of hiatus hernia and malposition of the greater tuberosity (242 cases) (author's transl)].

A simple procedure of reconstitution of the angle of His applied to the treatment of hiatus hernia and malposition of the greater tuberosity is reported. Applied to 242 cases, it presents compared with the classical procedure several advantages : easy to carry out, including no complex manoevre, it does not endanger the vagus nerve and maintains firmly the anastomosis. Radiological control and, above all, the clinical results were excellent or good in 96% of cases, suggesting that this new procedure is perfectly valid.

[Colonic and rectal villous tumors. Comparative study of treatment by surgery or radiotherapy. Report of 104 cases].

The authors report and analyse two series of observations of colonic and rectal villous tumours. 47 treated initially by surgical removal, 57 treated by radiotherapy, (contact radiotherapy or interstitial radium therapy). After recalling the basic pathology, they expose the results of each group of treatment and draw practical conclusions. The treatment should first be surgical, the method depending on the site and volume of the tumour; radiotherapy may be a beneficial complement when the tumour is malignant and non-invasive or when a recurrence occurs. It may exceptionally be used as a cure when the tumour has a small diameter (less than 3 cm) and is situated less than 12 cm from the anus.
