[Disappointing results with dinitrochlorobenzene in alopecia areata (author's transl)].

22 patients suffering from long-standing alopecia areata totalis or fere totalis were treated with dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) locally. No hair growth was induced in patients with total alopecia, but 3 out of 11 patients with moderate forms showed cosmetically acceptable regrowth. The possible causes of these comparatively poor results are discussed.

[Urinary incontinence following prostatectomy: hopes and disappointments. 42 cases (author's transl)].

Between 0,5 and 1% of prostatectomies are complicated by urinary incontinence due to the destruction of both proximal and distal urethral sphincters. Any incontinence persisting more than 12 months after surgery should be considered as permanent. Among all treatments proposed (medical treatment, electrical stimulation of the perineum, various plastic operations and prostheses with varied and numerous materials), only inflatable prostheses seem to give "better than nothing results. The best treatment of post-operative incontinence, however, is preventive: extreme care should be exercised during the enucleation or trans-urethral resection of the adenoma.
