[Tracheal compression revealing a cold mediastinal abscess of Pott's disease origin].

The authors report the observation of a cold mediastinal abscess during a dorsal Pott disease, revealed by a tracheal compression. In relation with the unusual localization, they recall the main characteristics of cold chest abscesses, secondary or apparently primitive, deep or superficial, parietal but rarely mediastinal, and discuss as to their origin : bone, rib vertebra or lymph node. Modes of medical, or surgical treatment are envisaged.

[Richettsial pericarditis and pleurisy].

The authors report two cases of rickettsial disease due to R. Conori with mainly pericarditis in one case, sero-fibrinous pleurisy in the other. They then recall a few general data concerning this rickettsial disease and the very restricted place that it occupies in the etiology of pericarditis and, even more so, in the case of pleurisy. The conditons of diagnosis, which are mainly serological, are discussed, in particular with regard to pericarditis and tuberculous pleurisy.

[Pulmonary, pleural and pericardial manifestations of rickettsiosis].

The authors report four observations of rickettsioses with R. conori (3 cases) or R. mooseri (1 case) with pericardial, pleural or pulmonary manifestations (2 cases). On this occasion, they recall that diagnosis of rickettsiosis can only be made on precise conditions: compatible clinical syndrome, significantly increasing then decreasing antibodies level, negative bacteriological and viral investigations and effectiveness of particular antibiotics. They also recall the main characteristics of pericardites, pleurisies, and pneumopathies produced by rickettsiae, probably more frequently than previously thought.
