[Treatment of frostbites. Analysis of results in twenty patients with buflomedil chlorhydrate (author's transl)].

Twenty cases of mountain frostbites of various degrees are presented, showing that buflomedil hydrochloride allows an improvement of the usual treatment of frostbites. Two protocols were used: 1) in 8 patients, after the usual treatment (bath at 38 degrees C, dextran perfusion, heparintherapy, antibiotherapy), buflomedil hydrochlorhydrate was administered by perfusion of 8 vials/day, during 10 days; 2) in 12 patients, buflomedil was injected directly by intravenous route on their arrival in the Emergency room. When the injection is given early, a potentiation of the effects of the warm bath is observed, and in two cases, this therapy has perhaps allowed to avoid the amputation.

[Perforation of a jejunal diverticulum].

An observation of jejunal diverticulum is reported by the authors. It concerned a woman 82 years old whose disease appeared as an acute white spread peritonitis complication. The delay brought to perform the operation made it impossible to save diseased. About that case is evoked the pathogeny of the diverticulum: congenital or acquired. In the case reported it was acquired, the proof resulting from the anatomy-pathology. The disease can appear under a chronicle form with a difficult diagnosis or under a single relevant form whose surgical treatment must be done without delay.
