Résumé
Extraintestinal manifestions of Salmonellosis are rare. Most of cases reported presented gastrointestinal symptoms, and were immunologically compromised. We report a case of a young immunocompetent patient with Salmonella enteritidis spondylodiscitis. She did not present any digestive symptoms. The tomodensitometric exam revaled L2 L3 spondylodiscitis. The culture of the biopsy yielded S. enteritidis. In the litterature, 115 cases of non-typhoidal salmonellosis were reported. Most of cases occur in patients immunologically compromised by sickle cell disease. Salmonella enteritidis, Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella choleraesuis were the most common serotypes described

Pituitary stalk interruption is a non-negligible cause of growth hormone [GH] deficiency. We report 6 cases [5 boys and 1 girl] with complete congenital GH deficiency. The average age was 13 years. 4 out of 6 cases [66, 6%] had corticotrophic hormone deficiency; 1 of 6 cases [16, 6%] had a hypothyroidism. 2 out of 4 children older than normal age of puberty had gonadotropin deficiency [50%]. Diabetes insipidus was not prsent and hyperprolcatinemia was present in 2 cases. 4 children had past history of fetal distress. Pituitary stalk interruption was assessed by the means of magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]. The cause of the stalk interruption syndrome is unknown. The MRI in this syndrome revealed ectopic posterior lobe location, stalk interruption and hypoplastic anterior-lobe. The outcome is progressive evolution towards panhypopituitarism and these patients require regular clinical survey and hormonal controls

The Authors report 3 cases of cirrhotic portal-hypertension complicated with digestive blooding and ascitis. All three patients underwent trans-jugular intrahepatic porto-systemic shunt in our department of raidology. Immediat results are presented here. Indications of this new procedure in the management of cirrhotic portal hypertension are discussed
