Granulomatous hepatitis in Q fever.

Liver lesions in 17 patients with serologically diagnosed Q fever are described. A distinctive granulomatous pattern, with granuloma formation plus a fibrinoid ring, was observed in 14 cases. In two cases the fibrinoid material consisted of fibrillar eosinophilic structures without an annular arrangement, interspersed among epithelioid cells. In only one case was a nonspecific granuloma (devoid of fibrinoid material) noted. We conclude that the association of a granuloma with fibrinoid material is highly indicative of Q fever, but serial sections are often necessary to demonstrate this pattern.

[Ruptures and "spontaneous" perforations of the rectum and sigmoid: a report on two cases and review of the published literature (author's transl)].

Though ruptures and "spontaneous" perforations of the rectum and sigmoid are sometimes confused they are very different affections. Ruptures of the rectum or the rectosigmoid junction are lesions due to effort in chronically constipated subjects, frequently having rectal prolapses. They are due to a particular type of trauma. Perforations of the rectum, rectosigmoid junction, or the sigmoid loop arise from a previous acute ulceration of the intestinal wall. Systematic histological examinations may confirm the etiology. A case is reported of rupture of the rectum due to effort. The second case was a double perforation, of the rectum and the rectosigmoid junction, due to a non-specific acute rectocolitis.

[Bronchiolo alveolar carcinoma. 9 cases (author's transl)].

The authors try to define the criteria for the diagnosis of this unusual variety of bronchio pulmonary adenocarcinoma. They studied only 9 patients, 8 of whom had surgery which allowed to make a correlation between X-ray and morphological findings. The pathologist encountered the usual problems in the diagnosis of a primitive tumor since some metastasis have the same macroscopic and microscopic aspect. The relation between the radiographic image and the anatomical findings is emphasised. From a symptomatic and radiological point of view, the most frequent distinction was between the opaque round intra-pulmonary image and the chronic alveolar opacity. Other radiological types occurrence less frequently, such as the nodular or the hollowed type. The authors emphasize the pronostic importance of distinguishing the localized form, with a generally good prognosis following surgery, form the diffused form, which have a very poor prognosis. Even under the best of conditions, a radiological study must be supported by both surgery and pathology to be sure that the tumor in question is, in fact, strictly localized. The histogenesis of bronchio-alveolar carcinoma is briefly discussed in a study of histology and pathology.
