The highly specific polymerase chain reaction recently described can be used to amplify selectively several polymorphic regions of DNA genetically close to the cystic fibrosis gene. This method, providing automated, revolutionizes the classical methods of prenatal diagnosis and carrier detection.

[Interest of fistulography in the treatment of infection of arterial prostheses (author's transl)].

In groin distal anastomosis suppuration of an aorto or ilio-femoral prosthesis, preoperative opacification of the fistulous tract was used to assess the extent of infection along the prosthesis. In two patients, one with an ilio-femoral by-pass whose entire length was infected, and the other having an aorto-bifemoral by-pass with only one infected distal anastomosis, fistulography enabled us to plan the operative procedure consisting of venous by-pass and resection of the infected segment.
