Its appearance is quite char- acteristic on plain films, ultrasonog- raphy and computed tomography. Sporadic cases of cholecystitis have been described in porcelain gallblad- ders. Enterobiliary fistula may com- plicate acute or chronic cholecystitis in non-calcified gallbladder. We re- port a unusual case of acute chole- cystitis with cholecystoduodenal fis- tula in a porcelain gallbladder.

This complication is extremely rare and occurs most commonly when a Dacron patch graft has been employed. Various clinical presentations are described and the etiology of infection is discussed. Surgical management consisted of the resection of the pseudoaneurysm and segmental replacement with vein. Parenteral antibiotic therapy was given for three weeks and topical irrigation with an antiseptic solution performed for two weeks.

Spontaneous renal artery dissection (RAD) is exceptional. We report the case of a young and otherwise healthy man with an isolated dissection of the right renal artery without any obvious origin. Diagnosis was made by angiography. He received medical treatment and rapidly recovered. Renal artery dissection can be misdiagnosed because its clinical presentation may be confusing. Selective renal angiography is essential to evaluate the extent of the dissection and the suitability for repair. Control of the hypertension and renal function preservation are the two main goals of the treatment. The place of surgical repair remains unclear because of the poor results on hypertension improvement and high complication rate.

She was severely over-weighted (BMI: 34 Kg/m 2 ) and had a clinical history of diabetes and hypertension. Pulmonary auscultation and biological findings were within normal limits.

An argon laser with a 1.5 or 2.0 millimeter diameter metalcapped optical fiber (Hot Tip Trimedyne Inc.) was used; the laser probe was pushed to the occlusion point; after a channel was produced through the obliteration, a conventional percutaneous balloon angioplasty was performed. The indications were: 4 primitive iliac occlusions, 15 femoral/popliteal occlusions and 1 subclavian obliteration. The immediate results were as follows (table I): 75% overall recanalization (50% at the iliac level, 87% at the femoral/popliteal level and failure at the subclavian level); 5 notable complications were observed (2 limb ischaemia, 2 voluminous inguinal haematoma and 1 aortic cross perforation) without clinical sequelae. The short term follow-up (1 to 8 months) of the successfully treated patients (table II) shows 100% permeability at the iliac level and 77% at the femoral/popliteal level. We conclude that laser thermal angioplasty is a very attractive method in the treatment of primitive iliac and femoral/popliteal occlusions. The well-defined indications must form the subject of a closely discussion between the angiologist, the vascular surgeon and the interventional radiologist.

Pudendal arteriography has been the object of numerous publications. Venous conditions explain the majority of erectile dysfunctions in patients with normal arterial anatomy. We have performed cavernography in 30 patients, with monitoring of intracavernous pressure and flow measurement. Cavernograms allowed study of the corpora cavernosa and the venous drainage. Cavernography not only helps in understanding the mechanism of erection but also is essential to the successful treatment of pathologic venous drainage.

The results of ultrasound and angiographic imaging and the relevant literature are reviewed. The examinations, particularly selective angiography, are of great interest in the diagnostic and in the etiology of this disease.
