RESUMEN

Waldenström macroglobulinemia is defined by a bone marrow lymphoplasmacytic infiltration associated with serum IgM monoclonal gammopathy. Specific properties of the IgM gammopathy induce the main clinical manifestations revealing the disease: hyperviscosity syndrome, autoimmune peripheral neuropathy, cryoglobulinemia or hemolysis, and exceptional skin deposit such as macroglobulinosis cutis that we here report. Physicians should be aware of these clinical manifestations to avoid diagnostic delay.

RESUMEN

We report the case of Mooren's ulcer recurrence after uncomplicated cataract surgery in a 61-year-old woman. This cataract developed because of repetitive inflammation of the anterior chamber and corticotherapy. Local and general corticotherapy with cyclosporin 2% drops was started in association with an anterior lamellar graft and a conjunctival recession due to a preperforation condition. Secondarily cyclophosphamide was necessary to control recurrence with a good anatomic result and an increase in visual acuity. The case updates physiopathologic and diagnostic data on this rare limbic autoimmune ulcerative disease. The diagnosis was made by histology and the dosage of specific autoantibodies against cornea. The prevention of recurrence after surgery requires a long clinical quiescent period, minimally invasive surgery long after inflammation has subsided, and a gradual tapering of corticotherapy over several weeks.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Mantle cell lymphoma reached rarely ophtalmic sphere and salivary glands. CAS REPORT: We reported a dry syndrome seen in a 67 year-old patient. The first patological analysis of accessory salivary glands evoked a primary Gougerot-Sjögren syndrome. Secondary, he presented a mantle cell lymphoma. DISCUSSION: The pathological lack of specifity and the discovery of atypical Gougerot-Sjögren syndrome must encourage complementary immunohistochemical study of salivary glands biopsy.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Extramedullary plasmacytoma is an uncommon plasma cell malignancy mainly located to the upper aerodigestive tract. Primary pulmonary plasmacytoma is extremely rare. EXEGESIS: We report two new cases of primary pulmonary plasmacytoma and then proceed to a review of the literature concerning 35 similar cases previously described. CONCLUSION: Complete or partial responses were obtained in 24 cases (65%). Five patients (14%) have developed multiple myeloma within 3 years following plasmacytoma diagnostic. In spite of sustained responses with radiotherapy or chemotherapy, surgical resection while feasible remains the first therapeutic option.

RESUMEN

Mansonella perstans filariasis is widely distributed across the center of Africa and equatorial America. We describe a case of post-transfusional M. perstans microfilariasis in a young child, affected with severe Plasmodium falciparum malaria, admitted in Goundi Hospital in South of Chad. A decrease of M. perstans microfilariasis in the patient's blood was observed, with no subsequent development of either clinical symptoms or eosinophilia. We suggest that, in endemic areas, transfused M. perstans microfilariae may be cleared from the blood over relatively short periods of time. It is likely that only adult worms are responsible for symptoms and eosinophilia, whereas microfilariae in the bloodstream are unable to give clinical manifestations.

RESUMEN

203 patients submitted in the last 20 years to surgery, first by Smithwick's sympathectomy, then by Adson's gangliectomy and lastly by Telford's gangliectomy, were controlled. The frequency of true Raynaud's disease is with time decreasing and is found today in the minority of the patients suffering from Raynaud's phenomenon and surgically treated. Immunological tests detect frequent associated autoimmune disorders to be treated before surgery. Surgical indication is today selective. For this reason long term results are improving: 90% of positive results in the last series against 73% and 60% respectively in the previous series.
