[Two cases of extrapulmonary tuberculosis causing differential diagnostic problems].

The decrease of tuberculotic diseases was continuous in the past years. This statement relates to pulmonalis as well as to extrapulmonalis tbc. The authors want to call attention to the possibility of the varied and more rarely appearing extrapulmonalis manifestation. In the first of their cases the burst of spondylitis tbc, and in the other one the very rare spleen tbc--which was made probably clinicum and later by the US abdomen examination--caused differential diagnostic problem.

Congenital deficiency of cyclo-oxygenase in a woman with generalized atherosclerosis.

The case of a 52-year-old woman with congenital cyclo-oxygenase deficiency, signs of generalized atherosclerosis and a moderate bleeding tendency is reported. Secondary platelet aggregation was absent. Platelet aggregation induced by arachidonic acid failed totally while that induced by calcium ionophore was normal. No malondialdehyde formation could be detected in her platelet-rich-plasma. The life-long deficiency of cyclo-oxygenase had not protected her from progressive vascular disease. This case suggests that the chronic intake of large doses of aspirin cannot prevent arterial disorders.
