Metachronous colonic lymphomas complicating chronic ulcerative colitis.

The gastrointestinal tract is the most common extranodal site of primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Of these, 10-15% occur in the large bowel. Colonic lymphoma is a recognized complication of inflammatory bowel disease, particularly ulcerative colitis and, less commonly, Crohn's disease. We describe a unique case of two metachronous primary lymphomas of the large bowel in a patient with chronic ulcerative colitis.

Arthroscopy of the knee.

Fiberoptics permit a minimally invasive direct inspection of the knee joint. Arthroscopy is indicated when no definitive clinical diagnosis can be made. An organized approach includes inspection of the suprapatellar pouch, the articular surfaces of the patella, the medial and lateral compartments of the knee and the intercondylar area. Common afflictions diagnosed by arthroscopy include chondromalacia, meniscal lesions, osteoarthritis, cruciate ligament injuries, chronic synovitis and loose bodies. Complications and morbidity are minimal.

Clinical, haematological and pathological studies in donkeys experimentally infected with Trypanosoma brucei.

Donkeys experimentally infected with Trypanosoma brucei showed dullness, weakness, fever, inappetence, conjunctivitis, tachycardia and polydyspnoea soon after detectable parasitaemia. The parasitaemia was generally low with transient high peaks except in the terminal stage when there was sustained high parasitaemia. A moderate anaemia was present as from the second week of infection but it was not progressive. There was a marked leucopoenia within 24 h of patent parasitaemia. Death occurred 2 to 2 1/2 months after infection and at necropsy there was severe emaciation as well as mild serous effusion. Histologically, there was a nonsuppurative encephalomyelitis, cranial neuritis, extensive haemosiderosis, hyperplasia of follicles in lymph nodes and spleen and giant cell reaction in lymph nodes. Trypanosomes were present in the cerebrospinal fluid, the eye and serous effusions. These observations are similar to those previously reported in other animals infected with T. brucei.

Oral fibroma in a captive python.

A massive growth in the lower jaw of an Indian python (Python molurus) was diagnosed from biopsy samples as a fibroma. Moderately satisfactory treatment was achieved by surgical excision.
