[Prolonged curarisation following succinylcholine injection on butyrylcholinesterase deficiency and potentiated by a lithium treatment: a case report].

Succinylcholine is a short-term curare which degradation depends on its quick hydrolysis by butyrylcholinesterase (or pseudocholinesterase). Thus, a butyrycholinesterase deficiency, congenital or acquired, is a cause of a prolonged neuromuscular block. From an autosomal recessive inheritance, genetic deficiency remains the first etiology.

[Thrombotic microangiopathy mimicking a heparin-induced thrombocytopenia].

We report a case of a 47 years old woman. In her case of medical history, there were vein thrombosis and an allergic to tinzaparin. The patient entered in critical care unit under medical supervision for a multivisceral infarction due to an arterial mesenteric, renal and splenic thrombosis.

[Acute myocarditis and inflammatory bowel diseases: a case series of two patients].

Introduction: Acute myocarditis is one of the less common extra-intestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). It may reveal IBD or occur during the follow-up.

Case Reports: We report two patients who presented an acute myocarditis associated with ulcerative colitis that reveal the disease in one of them.

[Sickle cell disease: from molecular aspects to clinical practice. A case report and a literature analysis].

Sickle cell disease is the genetic disease most frequently detected at birth in France. The comprehension and knowledge of its pathophysiology allow to establish the principles of management for the drepanocytic patient, especially in the perioperative phase. In the light of recent recommendations published for anesthesia of a drepanocytic adult, this clinical case revealed allows to reexamine that subject, with a focus on biological aspects, which are transfusional strategy and antibioprophylaxy.
