[Paraquat poisoning: report of two cases and literature review].

Cases of poisoning with pesticides, especially suicidal ones, continue to be an important therapeutic problem. The heribicide paraquat (1.1' dimethyl-4.4' bipyridylium dichloride) is the second cause of pesticide poisoning in our country, which is associated with a high mortality rate. We report two cases of suicidal ingestion of paraquat who developed multiorgan failure with a lethal outcome. We also present a brief review of the literature, mainly focused on the different therapeutic options.

[Peripartum cardiomyopathy with normal endomyocardial biopsy and positive antimyosin-In 111 study for myocarditis].

Peripartum cardiomyopathy is a rare manifestation of heart disease which accounts for less than 1% of the cardiovascular problems associated to pregnancy, with a variable incidence of myocarditis ranging from 29 to 100%. We present a patient with peripartum cardiomyopathy in whom endomyocardial biopsy was normal, but the studies with anti-myosin antibodies suggested the presence of myocarditis. Clinical signs and controversies between anatomopathologic and isotopic studies are discussed.
