A case of an upper oesophageal duplication in a 44 year old man was reported. Dysphagia was the only clinical signs and further examinations CT Scan, MRI performed for diagnosis. Surgical treatment (thoracotomy) was performed and postoperative complication was underlined. Cysts with oesophageal structure are unusual anomaly and surgery is difficult and dangerous.
A gene involved in psoriasis susceptibility was localized to the distal region of human chromosome 17q as a result of a genome-wide linkage analysis with polymorphic microsatellites and eight multiply affected psoriasis kindreds. In the family which showed the strongest evidence for linkage, the recombination fraction between a psoriasis susceptibility locus and D17S784 was 0.04 with a maximum two-point lod score of 5.33. There was also evidence for genetic heterogeneity and although none of the linked families showed any association with HLA-Cw6, two unlinked families showed weak levels of association. This study demonstrates that in some families, psoriasis susceptibility is due to variation at a single major genetic locus other than the human lymphocyte antigen locus.
The authors relate an ethmoidal cylindroma, whose extension includes the orbital apex, without any ocular symptomatology. They wonder about the possibility of an early diagnosis of such tumors.

Clinical case-reports of 200 patients with blast-induced lesions are used as a basis for a review of physical and physiopathologic factors. Otologic aspects of injuries due to high-intensity shock waves are discussed and clinical and histopathologic features described. The place of post-traumatic pressure induced injuries to ear in catastrophy medicine is emphasized.
Inner ear decompression sickness belongs inner ear barotrauma. It occurs after a dive with factors of risk. The diagnostic needs an accurate history and physical examination which allows emergency treatment: therapeutic recompression, then hyperbaric oxygen and perfusions of vasodilators + corticoids. The symptomatology is mainly vestibular and the discussion between peripheric and/or central lesions is still open.
