[Bronchial involvement disclosing Wegener's granulomatosis].

The authors report a case of Wegener's granulomatosis, whose initial manifestation was an isolated endobronchial stenosis. In connection with this observation, it calls to mind, within the scope of the pulmonary granulomas (in view of such a rare clinical presentation) the difficulties of differential diagnosis, in particular with bronchocentric granulomatosis, and stresses the need for pulmonary histological examination to open lung biopsy.

[Spontaneous regression of a bronchial epidermoid cancer].

A spontaneous regression of epidermoid carcinoma of the bronchus is reported here for only the third time. This report concerns a 57 year old patient suffering from chronic airflow obstruction who had twice required artificial ventilation. Fibroptic bronchoscopy was performed on account of hilar asymetry and a small tumour on the carina of the middle lobe was discovered.

[Lonely pulmonary varices. Report of two new cases].

Authors report two new cases of lonely pulmonary varices, raising the number of lonely pulmonary varices to 34 and to 61 the number of pulmonary varices related in literature. In both cases the dilated veins were discovered by chance on a chest roentgenogram. The pulmonary angiogram has brought the diagnosis out.
