[Ileocolic intussusception in adults. Apropos of a case caused by benign inflammatory polyp of the terminal ileum]. / Invagination iléo-colique de l'adulte. A propos d'un cas, secondaire à un polype inflammatoire bénin de l'iléon terminal.

A case of an adult intussusception secondary to a fibroid polyp of the terminal ileum is reported. Adult intussusceptions are observed rarely, usually caused by an organic lesion. The preoperative diagnosis is based on US patterns, target aspect and sandwich sign.

[Ureteral risk of aorto-iliac surgery. Apropos of a case report of bilateral lesion of the ureters]. / Le risque urétéral de la chirurgie aorto-iliaque. A propos d'une observation de lésion bilatérale des uretères.

The authors report a case of bilateral uretero-hydronephrosis following aorto-bifemoral prosthesis for termino-aortic aneurysm due, on one side, to stenosis of incorrect repair of an operative injury to the ureter and, on the other side, to a syndrome of ureteric compression due to its retroprosthetic course, which is the central feature of this aetiological, pathophysiological and therapeutic discussion. Although the objective of treatment is to preserve the kidney, the risk of treatment is dominated by the threat to the future of the vascular prosthesis. The usual technical problem can be summarised by the question: should one cut the ureter or the prosthesis? and it would appear that a urinary problem does not necessarily imply a urological solution.
