[Pregnancy in patients with Behçet's disease].

INTRODUCTION: Behçet's disease is particularly frequent in the Mediterranean countries and in the Far East. Its predominance in men is the reason why its association with pregnancy has rarely been reported in the literature. OBSERVATIONS: Three pregnancies occurred in two patients with Behçet's disease. In the first case the disease was diagnosed post partum. The second pregnancy in a stabilized patient was complicated by depression and abortion at 16 weeks of amenorrhea. The second patient presented with an articular episode after delivery, requiring an increase in dose of corticosteroids. COMMENTS: The interventions between pregnancy and Behçet's disease are obscure. The progression of the disease varies from one women to another and from one pregnancy to the next in the same woman. The observations reported here add to those describing aggravation of Behçet's disease during or after pregnancy.

[Post-partum cerebral thrombophlebitis: three cases].

Post-partum cerebral thrombophlebitis is a rare accident (1/3000 to 1/10000 births). Symptoms vary and may be misleading. We report three cases of cerebral thrombophlebitis occurring during the pospartum period where diagnosis was based on clinical signs and imaging data (computed tomography and cerebral angiography). Heparin therapy led to good outcome in all three cases. Heparin therapy has been controversial for these patients but recent work has shown improvement in this severe conditions with very poor prognosis.

[Norplant. Experiences at the maternity services of Orangers in Rabat during two years].

Norplant is a pure progestative method which couples efficaciousness, reversibility and a period of prolonged action. We have counted 189 insertions since March 1993, the date of the introduction of this contraceptive method in the center of family planning at the university maternity of Orangers. The analytical study of different parameters collected in admission files and preestablished control allowed to draw the epidemiologic profile of the patients as well as acceptability, the tolerance and the efficiency of this method.

[Pheochromocytoma and pregnancy. Two case reports].

Pheochromocytoma is an uncommon tumour, young patients are involved. Diagnosis during pregnancy is scarcely made. Pheochromocytoma in pregnancy is a dramatic life threatening association for mother and foetus. High maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality can be reduced by a prompt diagnosis and treatment. We report two cases of pheochromocytoma associated with pregnancy, the prognosis of the first case was poor with stillbirth, the outcome was favourable in the second case for both mother and foetus. The authors emphasize the need of rapid diagnosis and treatment to improve outcome and the importance of perioperative management of these patients.

[Complete non-obstetrical uterine inversion].

A rare case of a gynaecologic uterine inversion is reported emphasizing on the exceptional character of the gynecologic uterine inversion and the pathogenic problems which are tackled. Gynaecologic inversion results from a tumor implanted on fundus of the uterus or from the essential atrophy of suspension ligaments of the uterus. Treatment depends on the anatomic type and the stage.
