[A case of non-bony chondroma of the finger (author's transl)].

A rather unusual case of a cartilaginous tumor of the soft tissues, without bone connections, is reported. The tumor was a chondroma developing from the extensor tendon sheath. The general characteristics of non-bony chondromas are described and similar observations reported in the published literature reviewed. Problems raised by differential diagnosis by radiological examination are discussed.

[Flexor tendon grafting. The use of a modified Hunter's technique (author's transl)].

The authors describe a modification of Hunter's technique of flexor tendon grafting. The operation is performed in two stages. At the first stage, a silastic prosthesis is inserted and the proximal end of the flexor digitorum profundus is sutured to the tendon of palmaris longus. This suture will represent the proximal suture of the future graft. At the second stage, six weeks later, the palmaris longus is divided proximally and the graft is passed distally to be sutured to the terminal phalanx. This modified technique allows a gain in time, a better blood supply to the graft and a safer proximal suture.

Continuous blood velocity and flow measurements by intravascular elutherm probe.

A device for measuring the mean blood velocity (by means of a thermal equilibrium method) and the intravascular electrical impedance, which determines the mean sectional area of the vessel, have been mounted on the same probe (french catheter 7F). The validity, of the method has been confirmed in vitro and by 100 measurements carried out in dogs and compared with flow measurements by means of the cardio-green method. The correlation coefficient is found to be 0.98.
