[Hypoglycemia caused by anterior pituitary insufficiency associated with pulmonary fibrosis. Apropos of a case].

The authors report the case of a young man with dissociated anterior pituitary insufficiency affecting somatotropic and corticotropic functions, presenting as hypoglycaemia as a result of the deficiencies mentioned, primary hypothyroidism and, in addition, pulmonary fibrosis of uncertain aetiology, pulmonary biopsy not having been carried out. The aetiology of this double pulmonary and endocrine involvement is presumably the same. Sarcoidosis seems unlikely, whilst histiocytosis X with pulmonary, anterior pituitary and/or hypothalamic and thyroid involvement is much more probable.

[Cutis verticis gyrata, hypertrophic gastritis, motrice diarhea, and horse's tall syndrome, a new association an apudoma (carcinoid or chemodectoma) (author's transl)].

The authors report the observation of a 70 years male with Cutis Verticis Gyrata (without hypertrophying osteopathy), Menetrier's hypertrophic gastritis, motrice diarrhea of the endocrine type, flush syndrom, liver angiomatosis and a large sacral water clear cells tumor with horse's tail syndrom. The initial tumor was on the posterior wall of rectum, but was necrosed : bone metastasing chemodectoma, or locally invading carcinoid ? This new complex paraneoplastic disease seems to be associated with APUD tumor.
