[Secondary sliding of the mandible after sagittal osteotomy of the ascending ramus].

Thus in the area of prognathism, modifications would seem to develop during the first three months after deblocking:-true recurrences are rare and would appear to be avoidable by careful technique;-secondary sliding shoud not be the source of too much anxiety, being the result of spontaneous attempts at equilibrium and are of little aesthetic consequence. Our statistics indicate that sagittal osteotomy of the ascending rami gives 82% good results. This would agree with statistics generally found in the literature.

[Chondrosarcoma of the upper jaw. Apropos of a clinical case].

Initially it has been a tendency to place chondrosarcoma in the general category of osteogenic sarcoma. Jaffe et Lichtenstein claimed that the concept of chondrosarcoma as a separate entity has a firm clinical and histological basis. Chondrosarcomas may arise in peripheral long and flat bones. The maxillary location is very rare, it represents about 0,7% of the whole body. 40 well documented instances are yet counted in the literature. Reporting a personnal case, the author proceeds to a comparative study between the three varieties of maxillary sarcomas, evokes the special histogenesis in this location, he reminds the interest of bone electrocoagulation as curative treatment, and discusses the difficulty in making a prognosis 3 years after surgery without local recurrence or metastasis in this case.

[Multiple cancers of the oral cavity. An unusual association of an epidermoid carcinoma of the mucosa with a bone carcinoma of salivary origin].

Multiple cancers cannot be considered as accidentally discovered curiosities. They have their own characteristics and differ from multifocal cancers or those secondary to a primary cancer. The authors describe the rare case of a patient suffering from two different types of cancer of the oral cavity; the first one was an epidermoid carcinoma of the upper alveolar mucosa, the second a salivary carcinoma of both epidermoid and glandular type situated within the bone of the mandible. A comparative study was carried out on the muco-epidermoid tumour and the adenosquamous carcinoma which proved the separate indentity of the second cancer. The galloping development of the adenosquamous carcinoma raises the problem of the effect of the primary cancer on the development of the second.
