[Gingival metastasis of a malignant bronchial carcinoid tumor. Apropos of 1 case].

Secondary tumors of the mouth are rare and especially seated on the maxillaries. Metastasis to the soft tissues of the mouth, especially of cancers situated far from ORL and buccal areas are exceptional. The authors report an observation of a bronchial carcinoïd tumor with metastasis to the gums in a 24-year old man. The rapidity of the evolution of the tumor, the precocity and the very exceptional site of the metastasis as well as certain particularities of the histological pattern of the primitive bronchial tumor, once again states the problem of the confines with the Oat-Cell Carcinomas.

Evolution of the prematurity before the 32nd week from 1980 to 1985 in a tertiary perinatal center in Lille, France.

127 infants were born alive before the 32nd week of gestation in the H. Salengro obstetrical unit from the University Hospital of Lille from January 1980 to December 1985. During this period the annual number of deliveries was constant, 2700. Two periods were considered, 1980-1982 and 1983-1985. The number of such premature infants increased slightly: from 56 to 71. The most striking feature was the dramatic increase in infants born after induction of delivery for fetal reasons. Another finding is the statistically significant lowering of gestational age and birthweight of the spontaneously born infants. These trends counterweight the efficacy of the policy of prevention. When considering the morbidity and the mortality, hyaline membrane disease still plays a preeminent role in this population.

[Granular cell myoblastoma or Abrikosov's tumor of the esophagus].

Granular cell myoblastoma or Abrikossoff's tumor of the esophagus are exceptional: fiveteen cases have been described in the literature. In this work we present the following case: discovery of a sub mucosal tumor during a systematic fibroscopic examination of an anemix patient. Only histological examination was able to make the diagnosis.

[Porcelain gallbladder and cancer (author's transl)].

The porcelain gallbladder is a rare entity. It reaches especially the old woman. Most of the porcelain gallbladders have a great clinical latence. A cancer of the gallbladder exists in eleven per cent of the cases: this justifies a systematic cholecystectomy of the calcified gallbladders, even if they are asymptomatic. Another digestive cancer exists in nine per cent of the cases. Three personal observations of porcelain gallbladder which are associated with a cancer are described: they confirm the facts of the literature.

The internal cavoatrial derivation for temporary vascular exclusion of the liver in the dog.

Vascular exclusion of the liver by clamping the hepatic pedicle and inserting an internal cavoatrial shunt allows bloodless hepatic surgery to be performed. The internal cavoatrial shunt performed on 30 dogs was studied to define its optimal hemodynamic characteristics. The internal diameter should measure half the caliber of the inferior vena cava and the total surface of the holes allowing blood flow to the shunt must be three times the internal caliber of the shunt. The aortic clamping associated with the clamping of the hepatic pedicle and the insertion of the internal cavoatrial shunt considerably diminishes the arterial blood pressure variations resulting from the splanchnic stasis. Administration of methylprednisolone (30 mg/kg) at the beginning of the experiment also plays a role in preventing alterations in the small intestine.
