[A benign broncho-pulmonary lesion may hide another. Association of a granular cell tumor and an intrapulmonary lymphatic ganglion].

The authors record the case of a patient who was under review for pulmonary tuberculosis in whom an Abrikossof granular cell tumour and a cyst were found which had developed from an intrapulmonary lymph node. These two entities are rare and their association extremely unusual and have never been described until now. We review their histogenesis.

[In vivo resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to chloroquine in Anjouan (Comoros)].

An in vivo study of P. falciparum sensitivity to chloroquine was conducted at Anjouan island (République fédérale islamique des Comores) from December 1990 to March 1991. The 27 patients included in the study were given chloroquine at a dose regimen of 25 mg/kg over 3 days and were followed up 7 days. Six patients (22.2%) still harboured parasites up to day 7, thus showing a RII/RIII level of resistance. This is likely related to an increased chloroquine consumption by the inhabitants of this island since 1987.
