[Intrafamilial bone marrow donation: the role of the parents].

Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is the last chance of recovery for some children suffering from malignant hemopathy or congenital blood disease. BMT with related donor radically alters previous family relationships: each member of the nuclear family becomes actively involved. Parents and siblings all undergo HLA typing. Only 30% of those who would benefit from bone marrow transplantation are lucky enough to have an HLA matched related donor, brother or sister. Our retrospective study concerned related donors and their parents. This paper reports the parents study. It was carried out at Strasbourg University Hospital. Parents were invited to speak about the child's illness, the graft reasons and their own position to regarding the choice of donor. Semi-structured interviews were used and their content analysed. The results highlight the expression by the parents of the need to maintain some control over the action which will save their child and establish an other gift system to keep their parental status.

[Paradoxes in adolescence: break and continuity].

The psychopathological studies on adolescence underline the paradoxical behaviours during this period of life. After the analysis of its concept we show in which way the paradox helps to maintain the continuity of psychological life during the crisis. Thus impossible choices which are part of the contradiction in adolescents be avoided. It will be necessary to provoke the emergence of the paradox from the contradictions linked with hospitalization through on hospitalization to make the most of the letter in the therapeutic process.

[Cytogenetic study of 350 mental deficient patients at medico-pedagogic institutions].

This report brings to light the results of cytogenetic study carried out on 350 mentally retarded persons (medium: Group I, deep Group II). In 8,2% and 12,56% of the cases a chromosomic abnormality is observed (mainly trisomy 21). These percentages are in correlation with the results of other studies. Ante and peri natal pathology plays a very important part among exogenous factors. In numerous cases a multifactors etiology can be found as the cause of this mental retardation, the effect of an initial organic mental retardation being aggravated by precocious affective perturbations. For those cases without apparent etiology, a teratologic origin may be thought as their cause.
