[Otological manifestations of Wegener's granulomatosis].

The authors report an observation of Wegener's disease, clinically isolated as a secretory otitis media on the left side followed by a right sudden deafness. Resistance to the usual treatment and the evolution of the disease with association of pulmonary manifestation and fever have lead to the diagnostic of Wegener granulomatosis confirmed by ANCA test and renal punction.

[Development of the auditory threshold during the first months of life related to modifications of the physiology of the external auditory canal].

A study realised among 60 children by means of a probe tube microphone allowed us to determine the mean ear canal resonance by the newborn and the young children. This is noticeably less than the adult one. The ear canal reaches its adult physiology after one year, so it implies a somewhat different auditory sensibility by the newborns than by the adults, particularly in the 2000-4000 Hz range. We suggest that the A.B.R. wave I latency and thresholds modifications during children's first year of life are (at least partially and in the majority of cases) an ear canal physiological variation effect and that different calibrations should be used for newborns screening test and for adults purposes.

[Sarcomatoid carcinoma of the larynx].

In this paper the clinical and pathological aspects of a case of sarcomatoid carcinoma (spindle cell squamous carcinoma) of the larynx are reported. The diagnosis is confirmed by immunohistochemical analysis.

[Salivary scintigraphy and sialography. Comparison of results in various common disorders].

We recommend the association of scintigraphy and sialography in salivary glands pathology. The obtained results of both methods are very often complementary or convergent. In case of sialadenitis or dry mouth, it happens that results diverge, but these differences can be explained if one remembers the anatomo-physiological alterations. To prevent a false positive result of atrophy. The scintigraphy must always be realized before sialography. N.B. "Scintigraphy" means isotopic sialography. "Sialography" means conventional sialography.
