[Advanced testicular seminoma: treatment of residual masses after chemotherapy. A review of 3 cases].

Based on 3 cases of advanced testicular seminoma classified as stage IIC, the treatment of residual masses after chemotherapy is discussed. The excellent therapeutic response confirmed by histological study of the residual masses, which show a fibrotic or necrotic appearance, allows the adoption of a strategy using imaging techniques: either there is persistence of a gland mass syndrome and resection needs to be carried our or retroperitoneal fibrosis is visualised and careful follow up would appear to be sufficient.

[Self assessment of the stages of sex maturation in male adolescents].

Self-assessment of sexual maturation was evaluated in 319 adolescent boys aged 10 to 18 years. Sexual maturation rates were defined by physicians based on physical examination and by adolescents on the basis of five standard photographs corresponding to Tanner's five sexual maturity ratings [5]. For genital development, the agreement between physician and boys is poor. It is good for pubic hair development. The assessments were age-dependent. The use of adolescent self-staging appears of value in studying puberty and adolescence.

Adiposity indices and clinical opinion.

The comparison of various adiposity indices in children and adolescents shows that there is a great similarity between the indices, and also between their ability to distinguish extreme groups. The adiposity indices used are highly correlated with weight and subscapular skinfold thickness, and are not generally independent of height. Differences in these correlations appear during the period of puberty. Discrimination of obese and non-obese subjects by the indices and by clinical opinion agrees in 65%-75% of instances, with no one index agreeing better than the others.
