[Double post-acute myocardial infarction complication: rupture of the interventricular septum and acute mitral insufficiency].

We present a case of double post acute myocardial infarction complication: ventricular septal defect and acute and severe mitral insufficiency. As a consequence of the delay in the diagnosis, the patient developed pulmonary hypertension with values at the systemic level. The patient underwent surgery in order to close the ventricular septal defect and aneurysmectomy, resulting in posterior regression of mitral insufficiency and pulmonary circuit values became normal. The ethology, diagnosis, evolution and treatment of this exceptional association of acute post myocardial infarction complications are discussed.

[Topographic diagnosis by two-dimensional echocardiography of an intramyocardial foreign body].

A nineteen-year-old male was diagnosed as having a foreign body in his cardiac muscle after a mild open thoracic injury. Diagnosis and follow-up was performed by two-dimensional echocardiography. He did not show any complications after a 6 month follow-up. We emphasize the rare presentation of this entity and the usefulness of echocardiography to attain the foreign body's size and place. Also, echocardiography helps therapeutic management and diagnosis of complications.

[Letterer-Siwe in an eighteen-month child (author's transl)].

A case of Letterer-Siwe revealing the clinical variability of this illness is described. A one and a half year old child with osteoporosis and osteolysis of the sphenoid bone at the level of the sella turcica and eczematous lesions in the retroauricular and cranial region is presented. Cortical steroid and orally administered Methotrexate have been used. Progress is good and possibility of radiating the sphenoid bone lesion with a small field not affecting the hypophysis is considered.
