[Cystosarcoma phyllodes of the breast in a 10 year-old child].

A case of cystosarcoma phyllodes in a 10 year-old, prepubertal white female is reported. In spite of the common belief of hormonal dependency of this tumor, hormonal receptor assays were negative. The diagnosis, behaviour and treatment of this unusual lesion is discussed.

[Acute intestinal invagination secondary to the presence of an aberrant pancreas in an infant].

One case of ileo-ileal intussusception due to an aberrant pancreas in a three months old infant has been reported. This very rare anomaly is ordinary discovered accidentally. Ileal resection is in this case, the treatment of choice. Inversely to the scarce number of similar reports, this observation is characterized by a pancreatic tumor of 1 cm, with complete histological features.

[Acute intestinal occlusion caused by phytobezoar in Israel. Role of oranges and persimmons].

Forty-one patients were operated upon for acute intestinal obstruction secondary to the presence of phytobezoars, 34 of these patients (83%) having a history of previous gastric surgery for ulcer. The etiologic factor in 44% of cases was oranges and in 56% persimmons (Kakis). Treatment was by enterotomy in 27 patients (65,85%) and by "milking" in 14 (34,15%). Postoperative mortality was 2,44% (1 case). Recurrence was noted in three cases (7,3%) including one with an ileocutaneous fistula, treatment being by enterotomy in 2 cases and "milking" in the third patient. First intention intestinal resection was never required. Five patients required several admissions for subacute obstruction treated conservatively. These findings suggest that gastric surgery predisposes to intestinal obstruction by phytobezoar. Careful exploration of the digestive tube and particularly the stomach should avoid postoperative relapse, while prevention depends on a dietary regimen avoiding excessive intake of foods rich in cellulose, particularly oranges and persimmon fruit.
