[Sacro-ilial tuberculosis (sacrococcygeal). Apropos of 1 case].
In a single case review the authors recapitulate the different methods for the presentation of sacro-ilial infectious and underscore imagery techniques which are of prime importance in diagnostic work. X-rays can only reveal advanced sacro-ilial bone joint lesions which are under-evaluated. In the absence of HI-Tech imagery, surgical biopsy must be widely recommended to identify the germ and allow early diagnosis.
[Spinal meningiomas. Apropos of 14 cases].
Fourteen cases of spinal meningiomas were reviewed. There were 5 males and 9 females, with an average age of 40 years who underwent surgical treatment at the Neurosurgical Division of Dakar University Teaching Hospital. The thoracic spine was involved in 10 cases. The location of the tumor in the spinal canal was epidural in 6 cases and subdural in 8 cases. 7 patients (50%) had marked improvement or stabilization: 4 patients died and in 3 cases, a recurrence was noted. The authors emphasize diagnostic difficulties encountered in the epidural forms.

[Seckel's nanism: apropos of 1 case].
This report covers the first case of Seckel's syndrome diagnosed at Dakar UHC. It concerns the main type of bird head nanism. The interesting thing about this observation is that it is associated with hepatoma. Would this be just a coincidence, or could the two afflictions be connected?
