[Placental chorioangioma. Two cases and review of the literature].

Two cases of placental chorioangiomas were discovered, one echographically after in utero death at mid-term pregnancy and the second during the neonatal period associated with acute hydramniosis and a single umbilical artery. At 8 months, the new-born was in good health after persistent cholestasis at birth. A review of the literature of the macroscopic, histologic, echographic characteristics and the foetal-maternal complications of chorioangiomas revealed few cases of in utero death, especially so early in term.

[Pseudo-Horton disease caused by angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia].

A case of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with intravascular eosinophilia is reported. The histologic pattern is characterized by an atypical vascular proliferation with an infiltrate composed of lymphocytes, eosinophils and mast cells. A possible intravascular proliferative process and histogenesis are discussed.

[Cervical thymic choristoma ].

Neck and thyroid tumors probably of thymic origin are more frequently reported since two years. It is therefore of interest to specify incidence and way of production of cervical ectopic tissue from they issue. So, authors studied 763 autopsies of fetus of various ages, newborns and infants and surgical pieces of 8 children and adults. Analysis of 72 cases of cervical thymic chorista.

[Malignant mixed mesodermal tumor of the ovary. A review of the literature apropos of a case with immunohistochemical study].

A very large left ovarian tumor in a 76 year old woman, on microscopic study, consisted of an epithelial component: both glandular and squamous, and a sarcomatous component: both cartilage and striated muscle. Epithelial and sarcomatous patterns were intermingled in a spindle-cell stroma. Immunohistochemical study revealed, in these spindle cells, cytokeratin-positive anaplastic epithelial structures and vimentin-positive mesenchymal structures. A review of the literature concerning this rare ovarian tumor especially including cases with a immunohistochemical study is added. However, immunohistochemical study does not allow histogenetic interpretation.
