[Crohn disease of the colon with acute onset at the 17th week of pregnancy. Description of a clinical case].

A case of Crohn's disease of the colon onsetting at 17 weeks gestation and observed at the 22 weeks when the disease presented severely and concomitant to serious maternal malnutrition, is reported. The patient was treated with NPT for 4 weeks in association with corticosteroids and sulphasalazine therapy continued to term (36 weeks). The newborn (weight 2480 g, Apgar of 9 at 5') developed moderately serious postnatal icterus resolved with phototherapy; at twelve months he presented normal growth and neurological development conditions. Stress is laid on the fortunate outcome of this gestation and the role of NPT in the correction of maternal malnutrition and the maintenance of foetal growth.

[The dosimetry of gynecological curietherapy by means of computed tomography].

The dosimetry of endocavitary curietherapy by means of CT in 15 patients, affected by cancer of the uterine cervix was studied. The results were compared with those obtained by the method of the European Group of Curietherapy. The authors measured the dimensions of the treated volume and the dose at critical points. The good relationship between the 2 methods is demonstrated, and the great possibilities opened by the new method are emphasized.
