摘要:

SummaryA case of a female patient with unilateral localized granulomatous peritonitis due to ectopic localization ofEnterobius vermicularis isPresented. The diagnosis was made because of vaginal bleeding at the laparotomy.The pathology is described. Infrequent occurrence of symptoms associated with ectopic oxyuriasis is emphasized.

摘要:

SummaryThe in vitro bacteriostatic and bactericidal activity of eight antimicrobial agents has been evaluated on 107 pneumococci. Erythromycin and clindamycin were the most active compounds. Two strains were considered as relatively resistant to penicillin G. (MIC>0.16/ig/ml). Tetracycline and doxycycline showed the highest proportion of resistance while for chloramphenicol and cotrimoxazole the resistance rate was rather low. Chloramphenicol resistant strains were also resistant to tetracycline. The disk diffusion test with penicillin G appeared not to be a reliable test for detecting resistant pneumococci. Furthermore there was a bad correlation between MIC’s and zone diameters. In view of these findings we propose to do a routine MIC determination for aall pneumococci isolated from important clinical specimens.

摘要:

SummaryThe clinical and bacteriological features of the gonococcal arthritis-dermatitis syndrome in two males are discussed. Typical skin lesions provided the clue for diagnosis. There were neither signs nor symptoms of urethritis in both men, althoughNeisseria gonorrhoeaewas isolated from the urethra in one case. Infection followed oro-genital contact in both cases. Gonococci were cultured from the throat in both patients and from the blood in one case. The isolates of both patients were highly susceptible to penicillin.Characteristics of this syndrome are discussed, together with recent aspects of its pathogenesis.

摘要:

SummaryMalignant hypertension and hypertensive crisis remain serious clinical situations necessitating vigourous emergency treatment.Each of the clinical pictures:—severe hypertension with encephalopathy and/or fundoscopic abnormalities,—acute lung edema and/or myocardial infarction,—dissecting aneurysm of the aorta,—renal failure,—eclampsia,—postoperative bleeding,asks for a different management.The use of one single drug for the treatment of all hypertensive emergencies is no longer tenable.Table 3 provides a guideline for the use of the different drugs in hypertensive emergencies.These data are derived from our own experience and from the current medical litterature (December 1980).

摘要:

SummaryAsthenomycoses represent more than 40 % of the opportunistic infections. An analysis of 1.250 published cases shows that these diseases are caused bij Candida (42.62),Aspergillus(23.28%), MucorandRhizopus(7.35%), Nocardia(5.44%), Cryptococcus(5.28%), Trichophyton(3.20%), Histoplasma(3.20%), Torulopsis(3.12%), Penicillium(1.44 %),Scopulariopsis(1.04%), Geotrichum(1.04%), Actinomyces(0.96•),Sporotrichum(0.80),Coccidioides(0.56%), Rhodotorula(0.40 %) andFusarium(0.24 %). Fungal associations are observed in 3 % of the cases. Mycological diagnosis is established by culture only in about 42 % of the cases, by histology only in 40 %, and by both methods in 18 %. Most frequently positive cultures are obtained from following specimens: blood, respiratory and cutaneous samples, ocular smears, urines, nails, spinal fluids, digestive specimens, and catheters. Positive histological diagnosis includes multiples biopsies, lung, digestive tract, nail, kidney, skin, brain and heart. Blood is mainly found positive forCandida, Torulopsis, and to a lesser extend forHistoplasma, respiratory system forCandida, AspergillusandNocardia; digestive tract forCandidaandGeotrichum; urine forCandida; spinal fluid forCryptococcus; eye forAspergillus, Penicillium, NocardiaandSporotrichum; skin forTrichophytonandCandida; nails forScopulariopsis; cervicofacial region forActinomyces; and catheters forCandida.Clinical features of asthenomycoses are extensive and deep Iesions., acute and widespread infection, atypical symptomatology, unsuccessful treatment if lately instored, unfavorable prognosis. Asthenomycoses are generally very severe. Dissemination frequency is 54 % and case fatality 67 %; withCandidait reaches 90 %. Predisposing factors include some primary diseases as well as their specific therapy. Hence, asthenomycoses caused byCandida, Aspergillus, NocardiaandCryptococcusdevelop in cancer patients or those having undergone traumatisms or surgery, especially organ transplantation (immunodepression); similarly, phycomycoses due toMucororRhizopusdevelop in patients with underlying diabetes mellitus or malignant haemopathy with neutropenia, or in severely burned. Experimental infections show the role of steroids, alloxan used as diabetogenic and certain antibiotics in the development of asthenomycoses.
