The non-ossified pubis.

A group of syndromes is presented whose common characteristic is the absence of pubic ossification at birth with very slow posterior mineralization. This is a radiological finding of interest as it has not been described in other entities. In all the cases shown, moreover, a variable degree of delay in bone age is observed. The increase of space between the pubic bones described in these syndromes is fictious, as it really signifies the existence of non-ossified cartilage. Therefore, they must be differentiated from those which deal with real widening of the symphysis of pubis.

[Indications of vascular exploration in the diagnosis of abdominal neuroblastoma (author's transl)].

The criteria on the indications of angiography are shown in the diagnosis of abdominal neuroblastoma, stressing its' utility in situations where conventional procedures do not supply an accurate diagnosis. Angiography happens to be fundamental for diagnosis retroperitoneal tumours which eventually result in a silent kidney as well as for the differential diagnosis of some hepatic tumours and Pepper's syndrome.

[Radiological diagnosis of primitive hepatic tumors in infants (author's transl)].

Six primitive hepatic tumours (two benign and four malignant) collected over a period of seven years, are studied. The symptoms were mild or absent in many of the cases, and all were discovered after investigation of hepatomegaly or abdominal mass. The importance of the co-ordinated use of radiological and gammagraphical findings is pointed out.
