Combined therapeutic approach for extraorbital sebaceous carcinoma in a Torre's syndrome.

Extraocular sebaceous carcinomas are extremely uncommon neoplasms. More exceptional is their association with an internal malignancy as first described separately by Torre and Muir in 1967. We report the first use of combined adjuvant radio- and chemotherapy in a sebaceous carcinoma of the anal margin in a Torre's syndrome. An interesting partial response was attained before the patient died from general debility. The therapeutic approach is discussed.

[Peroperative localization of insuloma using staged portal vein insulin assay. Apropos of a case].

The diagnosis of insulinoma is easily done now but, in many cases, it is still difficult to locate it without the use of invasive procedures. With selective angiography and percutaneous transhepatic catheterization of the portal vein however, failure is reduced to about 4%. We report a case of a double localisation of insulinoma, revealed by an intraoperative catheterization of the splenic vein. The advantages of this method are discussed.

[Solitary diverticulum of the cecum: apropos of 2 cases].

Diverticulitis of the cecum and ascending colon represent 1.5% of colonic diverticulitis. The preoperative diagnosis is made in 0 to 23% of cases. Two typically misdiagnosed cases are reported. A review of the literature reveals that CT Scan is useful when atypical pain is present in the right lower quadrant. If diagnosed preoperatively, the uncomplicated caecal diverticulitis can be managed conservatively.
