[Familial Crohn disease].

Authors report two cases of Crohn's disease in a brother and a sister. Female showed first manifestation at 8 years of age. Male started at 12 years. Onset was acute in the girl with ileo-cecal and colonic involvement and extraintestinal manifestations. The boy had an insidious onset with ileal involvement and striking rectal and perianal symptoms. In both cases, clinical course was chronic and relapsing. HLA A and B phenotypes were studied in both patients and their parents. Different factors concerning origin of disease, as well as relationship to other diseases among relatives are discussed.

[Munchausen syndrome by proxy].

Authors report case histories of four siblings with Munchausen syndrome by proxy. The diagnosis was made in the third daughter after six years. Two siblings had died as result of sudden unexplained death at two years old and twelve month old respectively. The mother had typical features outlined in some report. She denied the provocation of any episode and refused further psychiatric help but she accepted medical supervision. A review of the literature: warning signals, plan of action in order to assess the diagnosis and management of this problem are outlined, establishing a discussion about the repercussion of this syndrome.

[Value of routine preoperative tests in children].

To asses the value of preoperative tests in pediatric patients, a retrospective study of 722 surgical patients was undertaken. No unsuspected abnormalities or underlying diseases leading to the cancellation or postposition of surgery were found. Neither anaesthesia nor postoperatory complications were prevented by means of this procedure. We conclude that detailed anamnesis and physical examination are the most effective screening procedures and that radiologic and laboratory tests should be restricted to help in diagnosis and evaluation of the patient in emergency surgery and when the anamnesis, physical examination or a specific kind of surgery recommend it.
