[Association of a secreting oncocytic tumor of the kidney and a parathyroid adenoma].
An unusual association of a secreting renal oncocytoma and a parathyroid adenoma is described. The high level of hypercalcemia and of blood parathormone (PTH 44-68), partially reduced by nephrectomy and totally normalized by parathyroidectomy, as well as the renal tumor PTH evaluation and the ultrastructural features showing secretory granules in oncocytic cells of kidney, advocate for a double site of PTH secretion. Removal of both tumors permits a complete recovering.

[Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of the appendix. Apropos of a case].
A case of mucinous cystadenocarcinoma discovered into a voluminous benign mucocele of the appendix, is presented. The clinical feature is a tumor of the right iliac fossa. The identification of a limited area of epithelial degenerescence in the cyst wall--by peroperative microscopic examination--permits immediate enlargement of the cystectomy by a right hemicolectomy. The prognosis of the tumor is generally excellent as soon as the diagnosis is early and the removal large enough.

[Reduction of mammaplasty scars: from a short inframammary scar to a vertical scar].
A better understanding of the vascular anatomy of the breast has drastically reduced the risk of postoperative necrosis in breast reduction. Scars however remain a major concern, and techniques to reduce these have often been considered to be less satisfactory in terms of the shape and stability of the result. Our experience with more than 1,000 breasts operated on between 1984 and 1989 with a short inframammary scar technique has proved the contrary. The next step was to eliminate the inframammary scar, as proposed by Lassus, and to leave just a periareolar scar and a lower vertical scar which does not cross the inframammary fold. One hundred and four breasts, in sixty four patients--17 to 60 years old--have been operated on according to this vertical technique between April and September 1989. Twenty seven cases of ptosis correction in seventeen patients, and seventy seven reductions in forty seven patients, with a median excision weight of 460g, have been performed. By means of an individualized preoperative drawing and several technical devices, the results have proved that vertical mammaplasty is an excellent technique particularly indicated for women with elastic skin and a firm gland. Recent experience with liposuction at the beginning of the operation, has given new possibilities for breast modelling. In fatty juvenile hypertrophies, liposuction alone may even be adequate to reduce the volume, retaining a satisfactory shape for the breast with minimal scarring.
