Avulsion fracture of the iliac crest in a football player.

We describe an unusual injury of the iliac crest in an adolescent football player. The injury occurred as a result of a sudden twist of the trunk while kicking. Plain radiographs showed avulsion fracture of the anterior part of the iliac crest apophysis. Five months later the injury was partially ossificated but the patient felt minor pain and was not confident of returning to playing football.

[Legal disability in patients with mental disorders].

This article offers an approach to the present juridical situation of the processes of occupational incapacity - in the contributive and non-contributive types - for patients with psychological disorders, taking into account the wide range of nuances that this implies. Finally, some verdicts of the Spanish Superior Court of Justice are added, in order to illustrate the present situation about the jurisprudence referring to permanent contributive incapacity.

[Stevens-Johnson syndrome after lamotrigine treatment].

We report a 18 years old female with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome under treatment with sodium valproate, carbamazepine and clonazepam. When seizures increased we stopped carbamazepine and introduced lamotrigine slowly. One month later the girl developed haemorrhagic erosions in mucoses and limbs with deterioration of her general state. Skin biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of erythema multiforme, the Stevens-Johnson's form. The immediate withdrawal of lamotrigine and treatment with antihystaminics and steroids was followed of a slowly favourable course with disappearance of symptomatology one month later. It's another case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome related to the introduction of lamotrigine in polytherapy.
