Purpose: Malignant hyperthermia susceptibility (MHS) is a disorder of the regulation of calcium in skeletal muscle. Muscular individuals have been shown to have a 13.6-fold increased risk of death during malignant hyperthermia (MH) episodes and are more likely to experience a recurrence after initial treatment.

When one thinks of the failures of ART one naturally thinks of the suffering that they generate; but behind this pain, there is the suffering of infertility and, behind this latter, other distress we showed at the time of a recent research that they could play a part in infertility itself. The psychotherapy will help assume the failures, so that the traumatisms do not come to solidify in an impossible mourning, covering non elaborate former grieves. A sublimation of the desire of reproduction can make it possible for the unfertile man to peacefully consider other forms of paternity.

Certain forms of benign prostatic hypertrophy are associated with a reduction of the calibre of the prostatic urethra of the median lobe, a defect of infundibulisation of the bladder neck and a dilated appearance of the bulbar urethra. The objective of this study was to verify whether hydrodynamic arguments could be used to confirm the concept that defective infundibulisation of the bladder neck is directly responsible for an obstructive syndrome or via a reduction in the calibre of the bladder neck orifice. More generally, this study was designed to quantify the distribution of resistance to flow along the normal urethra and to define the role of cervicoprostatic and urethral deformities in the obstruction associated with benign prostatic hypertrophy.

A simple technique is presented for the management of male urethral strictures through one-stage urethroplasty using a mobile pedicled skin flap, be it scrotal or penial skin. The distinctive feature of this technique is the use of a very versatile pedicle, with good blood supply carved out from the subcutaneous cell tissue and the dartos. Depending on the case encountered, our management technique offers a choice of two kinds of plasty: the widening patch, meant to widen the urethral canal, and the tubular graft, which consist in forming a tubular shaped graft in order to replace part or the entire urethra.
