[Value of omeprazole in the treatment of collagenous colitis].

The authors report the case of a patient suffering from collagen colitis in whom the administration of omeprazole achieved the rapid and total abolition of the clinical signs and a significant reduction of the collagen band (measurements determined over 10 cryptic spaces using a graduated micrometric ocular microscope). Although the outcome of this disorder is variable, with the possibility of spontaneous recovery or, more frequently, of remission, the authors consider, in their conclusions, that omeprazole may have a beneficial effect in this disorder even though the mechanism for this has not been established.

[Mesenchymatous tumour of the thigh causing hypoglycaemia with circulating protein of high insulin activity (author's transl)].

An 87-year-old woman underwent surgery for a dermato-fibrosarcoma of the thigh, responsible for hypoglycaemic episodes. There was a high level of NSILP contrasting with a low level of NSILAs. This is the second case where such a finding has been made in a patient suffering from an extra-pancreatic tumour causing hypoglycaemia. The possible aetiological role of NSILP in extra-pancreatic tumours causing hypoglycaemia is discussed.

[Mesenchymal tumor associated with hypoglycemia and an elevated NSILP (author's transl)].

An unusually located mesenchymal tumor with hypoglycemia is observed. Insulin, cortisol, growth hormone, glucagon levels are within the normals. The glucogenic aminoacids have also been measured, as well as the NSILP which was three times as high as the upper limit of normal values. The various processes which might have brought about the patient's hypoglycemia are discussed.
