[Cushing's ulcer in a child (apropos of a case)].

Cushing's ulcus is an uncommon disease occurring during the regression of acute neurologic diseases. It counts for 30 p.c. of causes of acute digestive hemorrhages in children. Prognosis is very bad and any surgical treatment has to be as preservative as possible, classically achieving a hemostatic ligation associated with a pyloroplasty and a truncal vagotomy. Mortality rate is 20 p.c.

[Juvenile recto-colonic polyposis. Apropos of a case in Madagascar].

The authors relate the first case of juvenile polyposis coli noticed in Madagascar. It is a sporadic case developing a serious clinic picture with an accidentally fatal end in a 7 years old Malagasy girl. They recall the principal epidemiological, anatomopathological, clinic and evolutive features which are typical of this polyposis. They wish that the way to medical progress will soon lead to better knowledge of the place of the intestinal polyposis in African countries.

[A new case of African histoplasmosis with multiple localizations in the bones].

Bone localizations of histoplasmosis at H. duboisii are frequent (1 out of 3). Multiple localizations, far less frequent but not exceptional, are immediately diagnosed at the occasion of a systematic X-Ray check-up, or later, as presented in this case. Multiple localizations give evidence of the septicaemic diffusion of the pathogenic agent.
