[Pulmonary radiographic changes in the course of otomastoid diseases with minimally symptomatic clinical evolution (in infants and young children)].

Otomastoiditis of infants and young children, masked in its evolution by antibiotics, continues to be increasingly met with. Diagnostic difficulties are caused by the paucity of the symptomatology in such cases. The present study included 111 cases of otomastoiditis admitted to the ORL Clinic for Children; routine X-ray of the lungs was performed. The results showed particular pulmonary alterations (interstitial design, diffuse or segmentary opacities, emphysema), without corresponding clinical pulmonary distress.

[The duodenal compression syndrome (DCS) due to an aorto-mesenteric shunt associated with primary intestinal malrotation].

It is presented the cases of a patient suffering from a rare surgical condition, Wilkie's syndrome, duodenal compression syndrome through aorto-mesenteric clamp, also known as the superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS). The authors wish to underline the diagnosis difficulties which concurred to a delay of surgical cure, also presenting the surgical technique methods used for solving this case. Among the large number of operations till now proposed for the management of this syndrome, the chosen solution-resection of the first jejunal loop together with the duodenojejunal junction followed by prevascular lateroterminal duodenojejunal anastomosis--was imposed by the coexistence of an intestinal malrotation, forming the so called "common mesentery".

[Synthetic fabrics in reparative surgery of the abdominal wall].

Prosthesis use in surgical repair of abdominal wall is becoming nowadays a worldwide method, being imposed by its efficiency in solving the defects. The authors are speaking in the light of their experience gained with 100 patients that underwent the operation of prosthesis implant inside the abdominal wall between 1990 and 1996. There have been correlated the early and late postoperative results with some features of this surgical procedure (see below), to prove its efficacy. The authors discuss some principles of alloplastic treatment, which represent also the conclusions of the study: the moment of when a prosthesis is recommended, the choice of synthetic material, where and how is placed the prosthesis, some additional measures which contribute to therapeutic success.
