摘要:
An analysis of 33 patients with histologically confirmed intrathoracic tuberculous lymphadenopathy was made. Tuberculosis could have been diagnosed without mediastinoscopy only in 3 patients: 2 had positive bronchial cultures and 1 simultaneous cervical lymph node tuberculosis. Bacteriological confirmation is conclusive, but seldom possible. Mediastinoscopy provides the best method to obtain tissue samples, and consequently, it is still necessary in the diagnosis of intrathoracic tuberculous lymphadenitis.

摘要:
Three cases of labyrinthine anomaly confirmed by polytomography and CT scan are reported. They showed similar dysplasia of the bony labyrinth: dilation and fusion of the lateral semicircular canal (SCC) and of the vestibule with a normally shaped cochlea and other SCCs. One side was involved in 2 cases and both sides in 1 case. The 1 st case showed normal hearing levels with markedly reduced response to caloric stimulation in the affected ear. The 2nd case showed conductive hearing loss due to cholesteatoma with normal bone conduction hearing levels and normal caloric response. The 3rd case showed bilateral conductive hearing loss of unknown cause. The classification of labyrinthine anomalies and labyrinthine functions is discussed. Labyrinthine anomaly detected by CT scan and polytomography can be present in patients with normal cochlear and/or vestibular function.

摘要:
In 2 patients with penetrating wounds of the ear lesions involved the tympanic membrane and the ossicular chain. The long process of the incus was lying on the fallopian canal and the stapes was deeply depressed into the vestibule. In spite of a large oval window fistula, cochleovestibular signs were minimal. The fistula was sealed with adipose tissue and the stapes replaced by a Teflon-platinum piston prosthesis. The incus was repositioned and supported by a fat graft placed between the fallopian canal and the long process. This original technique of reconstructing the ossicular chain gave satisfactory functional results in both patients.
