Mesenteric panniculitis. A case report.

In our case, as well as those described by other authors, definitive diagnosis was histological and our patient has had a benign course of the disease.

[Physiology and pathology of the immune system of reproduction].

The Authors describe in detail the complex immunological mechanisms thanks to which the maternal organism does not reject the embryo, constituting an allogenic transplant. They examine the modifications, referring to both natural and adoptive immunity, occurring in the pregnant without ignoring the important contribution the foetus itself and adnexa make to the gestation positive termination. In the second part of the paper all the pregnancy pathologies, originating from an imbalance proper to the immunity system, are considered. The following pathologies are particularly described: a) the spontaneous recurrent abortion, both primary and secondary; b) the gestosis; c) the maternal-foetal isoimmunization towards transferable antigens present on red corpuscles, white corpuscles and blood platelets. At last Authors describe all the autoimmune illnesses in pregnancy and their influence on the foetus. Such illnesses may be: a) organ-specifics (immunological thrombocytopenic purpura, thyrotoxicosis, myxedema, serious myasthenia); b) systemics (rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematous). The course of each pathology, its influence on the embryo and, the present therapeutic protocols are examined.

[Magnesium in obstetric pathology].

Mean levels of maternal blood magnesium in a group of pathological pregnancies were compared to levels found in a group of physiological pregnancies. The paper concludes that low levels of blood magnesium are an improbable condition in pregnancy due to the existence of protective mechanisms, and that they are therefore rarely the cause of the most common obstetric pathologies.
