[Tactical approach to tumours of the sacro-coccygeal region. Report of five cases (author's transl)].

The name of sacro-coccygeal tumors is used generally for various tumors embryologically different in their origin. Rare, but not exceptional in number, these sacro-coccygeal tumors may have various locations and different sizes which make diagnosis more or less difficult. Benign in the first months of life, risks of malignancy will increase with age. Systematical intrarectal exploration will help not to overlook pelvic forms and will recognize pelvic extension in other types. Once found out, the extension of these sacro-coccygeal tumors should be estimated by complementary examination choosen according to the presumed type of tumor and it is to be regretted that myelography should be so often neglected. Treatment should always be surgical with one piece aphotesis if possible; good preparation and exact reanimation of the child are necessary because sometimes surgical treatment may be a very severe aggression for small babies. Constant surgical and biological overall should be maintained for many years in order to discover as early as possible any local relapse or metastasis.

[Tuberculous abscess of the central nervous system (author's transl)].

A case of tuberculous abscess of the cerebellum is reported by the authors. A check-up of concerned literature of ten-past years is drawn up. Diagnosis is seldom raised before surgery in spite of former or evolved tuberculosis. Histology and bacteriology are essential for a supportive therapy. The prognosis is favorable in seventy three per cent of the cases. This pathology must not be forgotten in patients who imigrate from countries of high endemic level of tuberculosis.

[Chronic ischemia of the anterior horn of the lumbar swelling of the spinal cord. Angiographic study in a subject with herniation of the T12-L1 discs].

On the basis of a case of almost pure involvement of the anterior horn with chronic progression in an individual with a low thoracic herniated disc (T12-L1), the hypothesis is discussed of the role of ischaemia of the lumbar swelling. Angiographic arguments (displacement of the anterior spinal axis and unusual distribution of anterior spinal afferents) perhaps make it reasonable to speak of "chronic ischaemic poliomyelitis" in the absence of pathological examination.
