[Metastatic pulmonary echinococcosis secondary to a primary cardiac lesion situated in the interventricular septum. One case successfully treated surgically (author's transl)].

The authors report a case of metastatic pulmonary echinococcosis secondary to a primary cardiac lesion. The diagnosis was made on the basis of round pulmonary lesions developing during an episode of cardiac diseases which had been labelled as idiopathic acute pericarditis. The septal site then suspected on the basis of minor conduction disturbances was confirmed by angiography and could be excised under extracorporeal circulation.

[Comparative study of mechanical and manual suture of bronchial stumps in pneumonectomy (author's transl)].

The incidence and time of onset of bronchial fistulae were retrospectively studied in 306 patients who underwent pneumonectomy at the Saint-Joseph Hospital, Paris, between 1975 and 1979. The bronchial suture was performed mechanically in 145 cases and manually in 161 cases. Patients in both groups were of comparable age, lung disease, side operated upon, nature of the bronchial division, post-operative course and surgeon's ability. From the results of the study, the authors have endeavoured to determine the advantages of mechanical suture as opposed to manual suture with regard to both operatory technique and quality of results.

[Recurrent neurological accidents due to pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae (author's transl)].

The authors report a case of recurrent cerebral embolism in a 43-year-old patient with a familial form of Rendu-Osler-Weber disease and review their experience of 19 cases of pulmonary arteriovenous fistula. Neurological complications were rare but considerably aggravated the disease. They were due to a significant right/left shunt but remained unpredictable, being unrelated to peripheral arterial saturation. The pathophysiological mechanisms and therapeutic possibilities are discussed.

[Pulmonary bilharziasis caused by Schistosoma mansoni with impairment of general state].

The authors report on one case of pulmonary bilharziosis at Schistosoma mansoni observed in a West-Indian female showing an impairing of her general condition with fever and dyspnea. Diagnosis was brought out by a pulmonary biopsy, after thoracotomy. Treatment by praziquantel was remarkably efficient. Scarcity of symptomatic cases and paucity of pulmonary radiological pictures are opposite of the frequency of pathological lesions in this parenchyma. The authors discuss the physiopathology of pulmonary bilharziosis in both their invading phase and state phase, as well as their frequency. They come to the conclusion that both parasitological examination of stools and biopsy of mucous membrane of rectum are simple, reliable and harmless implements of diagnosis.
