[Rupture of the thoracic esophagus by compressed air].

A case of rupture of the oesophagus due to the accidental passage of compressed air through the mouth is reported. Two longitudinal lacerations were present in the thoracic oesophagus; they were treated by radical oesophagectomy cervical oesophagostomy and gastrostomy for feeding. Reconstruction was made by retrosternal coloplasty. The course of the patient was uneventful.

[Rupture of an aneurysm of the hepatic artery proper and acute cholecystitis].

The authors report the case of a hepatic artery aneurysm which ruptured into the peritoneal cavity in the course of acute, gangrenous cholecystitis, which was treated successfully. The clinical aspects of the case, its evolution and the histological study, which appeared to indicate that adjacent inflammation was the cause of the rupture, are discussed. Treatment of hepatic artery aneurysms is conditioned to a great degree by the gravity of the onset, and in most cases ligature is the only feasible procedure. Other forms of treatment may be possible when the aneurysm is intrahepatically located or it is diagnosed before rupture.
