Angiomyolipoma of the parotid gland: a case report.

Angiomyolipoma is a hamartomatous process that most frequently occurs as a single lesion or multiple foci in the kidneys of patients affected by tuberous sclerosis. Angiomyolipoma can also arise in extrarenal sites, among which the liver is the most frequently recorded. Only rare cases of angiomyolipoma located in the head and neck region (ear and oral and nasal cavity) have been described.

[Changes in the peroneal flap and its use in reconstructive surgery of the lower limb. Apropos of an experience of 10 cases].

A peroneal fasciocutaneous flap supplied by the peroneal septocutaneous vessels and raised from the lateral side of the lower leg was reported by Yoshimura in 1983. This flap which can be used as a proximally or distally pedicled or free flap is very useful for leg skin coverage. This flap has a great potential for skin cover and composite reconstruction of the lower limb due to its multiple structural facets (cutaneo-aponevrotic or composite flap), its possible extensions to other vascular territories and the variable geometry of its mode of transfer.

[Traumatic lesions of the supra-hepaticocaval veins or lessons from failure. Apropos of 5 cases].

Strategic therapeutic principles in 5 cases of injury to supra-hepaticocaval veins were based on vascular exclusion of liver prior to any approach to the lesion. An approach to the intrapericardial inferior vena cava by sternotomy is proposed together with the use of an endocaval shunt introduced through the atrium.

[Three cases of renal artery's aneurysm with high blood pressure (author's transl)].

The authors report three cases of renal artery's aneurysm that caused high blood pressure. Their surgical treatment led to the cure of this high blood pressure. In one case, were applied ex situ surgery's procedures but with local replantation.
