[Familial Budd Chiari syndrome and glomerular involvement].
We report a case of a child with familial Budd-Chiari syndrome and proteinuria. Renal biopsy disclosed predominant arteriolo-capillary endothelial and mesangial lesions suggesting a microangiopathy. This may be due to hypoxemic damage with polycythemia and high venous pressure resulting from precapillary pulmonary arteriovenous shunts.

Parotidectomy: a plastic approach.
Three disadvantages are frequent after parotidectomy: a scar affecting the neck, a deep hollow between the sternocleidomastoid muscle and the mandible (the larger the resection is, the deeper is the hollow), and a sweat secretion. These disadvantages can be prevented or reduced by using four simple procedures: (1) using a facelift incision; (2) using a very simple and original "trick," by displacing outward the posterior belly of the digastric muscle; (3) using a flap with an upper pedicle taken from the sternocleidomastoid muscle; and (4) using a double free graft, taken from the superficial and deep temporal fascias. These two grafts lay down on the net constituted by the preceding flaps. They line the skin, thus blocking the wrong innervation.
