[Pseudo-coronary form of hemorrhagic rupture in pheochromocytoma. Apropos of a case].

The authors report a case of non-malignant pheochromocytoma which presented by its hemorrhagic rupture in two stages and with a clinical picture of threatened myocardial infarction. The progressive nature of these events enabled full laboratory, angiographic, computed tomography and nuclear magnetic resonance investigation and, as a result, planned surgery with hemodynamic monitoring and postoperative intensive care crowned by success with a follow-up period now exceeding a year.

[The contribution of computerized tomography to the diagnosis of diffuse pulmonary lymphangiomyomatosis. Apropos of a case].

The authors report a case of lymphangiomatosis (LAM) proven histologically in a 49 year old female. This case benefitted from very detailed CT-scanning (IDM) with characteristic images obtained from the thorax and bilateral renal tumours suggestive of angiomyolipomas. This association seems to be quasi-pathognomic of the disease. The discovery at CT-scanning of cerebral calcification raises a possible connection of LAM with Bourneville's tuberous sclerosis. This CT-scanning study has several points of interest: the early diagnosis of pulmonary lesions which are under evaluated by standard radiography; a complete inventory of the possible localisations of the disease; it enables a possible diagnosis in very frail patients in whom a lung biopsy would be a risk; an ability to assess further progress as there also exists a good correlation between the extent of the disease assessed by TDM and the disturbance in pulmonary function.

[Delayed, triangular, hyperdense, computed x-ray tomography images of the renal parenchyma following iodide injection. Interpretation of transient renal ischemia?].

Three cases of renal ischemia diagnosed by Computed Tomography (CT) are presented. The pathophysiology of renal ischemia which accounts for the CT findings observer in these cases are reviewed. In the appropriate climate setting a diagnosis of renal ischemia may be made by CT, when a zone or zones of low attenuation after injection and enhancement of these same zones 6 to 72 hours later are observed in the kidney.
