Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary revisions using cement without bone graft reconstruction are less frequently used because of their supposed higher failure rate. The results, in fact, depend on multiple parameters: number of prior revisions, cementing technique quality, and residual bone stock; these intricate factors are rarely taken together into account when analyzing this treatment method. HYPOTHESIS Femoral component fixation with cement can be a valid option in total hip arthroplasty primary revision. OBJECTIVES The objective of this investigation was to study the long-term results of cemented femoral stems in total hip arthroplasty primary revisions in terms of the quality of the cementing technique and the residual bone stock. PATIENTS AND METHODS This is a retrospective study of a series of 80-cemented primary femoral stems revised for aseptic loosening using a new-cemented femoral stem without bone graft. Seventy implants were analyzed at the longest follow-up. The Postel Merle D'Aubigné and the Harris Hip Scores were used for clinical assessment. The French Academy SOFCOT 99 bone loss grading system was used to classify preoperative bone compromise severity. The Barrack classification assessed the quality of the postoperative cementation. The radiographic study at the last follow-up sought signs of femoral implant loosening classified according to Harris. RESULTS The mean follow-up was 10 years and 10 months. The functional evaluation of the hip showed a significant overall gain (p<0.0001) after surgical revision. In our series, the existence of severe grade III or IV bone loss on the SOFCOT 99 classification exposed the patient to a significant risk of intraoperative complications (p=0.03). The grade III and IV femurs had a significantly higher risk (p=0.0001) of having type C or D cementation according to the Barrack classification. Type D cementation was a risk factor for significant iterative radiographic loosening (p=0.005) compared to A, B or C cementations. The 10-year survival rate of the femoral implant was 90% (95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 79.2-94.9%). This survival rate was significantly better (p=0.0016) for revisions with type A or B cementations on the Barrack scale (96% survival; 95% CI: 85.1-99%) than for type C or D (70% survival; 95% CI: 41.4-86.1%). CONCLUSION This study shows that revised cemented femoral stems without bone graft added are a valid therapeutic option in primary cemented total hip arthroplasty revisions provided that a good-quality cement technique can be achieved. Sufficient bone stock (SOFCOT 99 grade 0, I or II) was indispensable for good cementation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV: therapeutic retrospective study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the various clinical forms of female urethral cancer in the light of three clinical cases with a review of the corresponding treatment guidelines. METHOD The authors report three cases of female urethral cancer. Case 1 consisted of squamous cell carcinoma in a 56-year-old woman with no particular history. Case 2 was a urothelial tumour arising in a urethral diverticulum in a 60-year-old smoker. Case 3 was a 69-year-old woman patient with invasive urothelial carcinoma. RESULTS Case 1 was treated by segmental urethrectomy with no adjuvant therapy and a favourable course. Case 2 was treated by anterior pelvic exenteration with no adjuvant therapy. This patient relapsed in the form of peritoneal carcinomatosis two years later and died. Case 3 was initially treated by anterior pelvic exenteration followed by a chemoradiotherapy combination after local recurrence with a favourable course. CONCLUSION There are many clinical presentations and histological forms of female urethral cancer. Localized distal lesions can be treated by simple circumferential resection. The treatment of other lesions comprises anterior pelvic exenteration and platinum- or M-VAC-based chemoradiotherapy. The main prognostic factors for these tumours are their size, histological type, site and the presence of pelvic lymph node extension.

Abstract
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (Marchiafava-Micheli disease) is a rare acquired clonal disorder of the hematopoietic stem cell. Its most frequent clinical manifestations are hemolytic crisis and the most serious are venous thrombosis of the mesenteric, hepatic, portal or cerebral territories. Arterial cerebral infarctions are extremely rare. We report and comment on a case of multiple strokes occurring during an hemolytic crisis and despite effective long-term anticoagulation treatment.

Abstract
Treatment for cervical cancer is very successful, especially in early stages. However, most patients presenting in late stages of disease will experience recurrence. The prognosis of recurrent disease is very poor and treatment options are limited. The diagnosis of recurrence may be apparent or difficult, but determining the extent of disease is always complex. Routine follow-up of asymptomatic patients has other objectives and is not a reliable way to detect recurrences. Symptomatic patients require extensive investigation to detect the extent of the disease. For patients with central pelvic recurrences, exenteration offers the prospect of survival in more than one-third of cases. Newer developments include laterally extended endopelvic resection that may become an option for patients with more extensive pelvic recurrence. For patients with recurrences of cervical cancer, the roles of second-time radiotherapy or postradiation chemotherapy are very limited. Palliative treatment is important for all patients with untreatable disease. Pain relief forms a central part of palliative care. Caregivers also experience emotional feelings and probably function best in a system offering strong colleageal support.

Abstract
Canned truffle products labeled Tuber melanosporum, the famous Perigord truffle, may contain other less tasty and cheaper truffle species. To protect consumers from fraud, a PCR DNA-based method was used to unequivocally identify the nature of the product. Several rapid and simple cell lysis procedures, used in conjunction with a commercially available DNA purification kit, were evaluated for their effectiveness in recovering DNA from canned truffle. In parallel, a marker for T. melanosporum was tested on the mitochondrial rDNA. These two techniques were then combined to differentiate T. melanosporum from other truffle species like T. aestivum, T. brumale or T. indicum up to the legal threshold in canned products. These findings not only allow a comparison of the effectiveness of the different DNA extraction methods but also provide a preliminary indication of the specificity and sensitivity of the detection with the mitochondrial marker that might be attainable for truffle species in a quantitative PCR-based analysis method.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The goal of this article is to assess the value of endovascular techniques for the salvage of fistulas that fail to mature. METHODS Over a 6-year period, 52 dysfunctional and 17 thrombosed immature forearm fistulas (mean age 10 weeks) were treated by interventional radiology. Angiography was performed by puncture of the brachial artery but dilation of underlying stenoses was performed after cannulation of the fistula itself, whenever possible, with a balloon never smaller than 5 mm. Embolization or ligation of any type of vein was never indicated and never performed. For thrombosed fistulas, significant clots were removed by manual catheter-directed aspiration. A covered stent (Passager) was used in cases of dilation-induced rupture not controlled by balloon tamponade. RESULTS An underlying stenosis was diagnosed in 100% of cases. Half of them were located in the anastomotic area. The initial success rate of interventional radiology was 97%. Dilation-induced rupture occurred in nine cases (13%) but stents were necessary in only two cases. The rate of significant clinical complications was 2.8% (bacteraemia, pseudoaneurysm). Primary and secondary patency rates at 1 year were 39 and 79%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Delayed maturation of native fistulas should lead systematically to imaging as an underlying stenosis is diagnosed in all cases. Interventional radiology can treat the majority of cases and achieve a 97% success rate but early recurrence of stenoses can occur. Multidisciplinary re-evaluation of the patient must, therefore, be performed after radiological salvage of the fistula.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are no large series reporting the long-term results after radiological treatment of both stenosis and thrombosis in native fistulas (AVFs) and prosthetic grafts. METHODS Between 1987 and 1999, 726 dilations, 135 stent placements and 257 declotting procedures were performed in 209 consecutive forearm AVFs, 74 upper arm AVFs and 156 prosthetic grafts. The stents used were the Wallstent*, the Craggstent*, and the Passager*. Declotting was performed by manual catheter-directed thromboaspiration, with or without previous urokinase infusion. RESULTS The initial success rates ranged from 78 to 98%. The rate of significant complications was 2%. Primary patency rates at 1 year were twice as good for forearm AVFs (50%) than for grafts (25%) (P<0.05), and were 34% for upper arm AVFs. Secondary patency rates were similar in the 3 groups at 1 year (80-86%) and at 2 years (68-80%). Reintervention was necessary every 18 months in forearm AVFs compared to every 9 months in grafts (P<0.05). Thrombosed grafts fared worse than failing grafts. Accesses of less than 1 year's duration needed more reinterventions than older accesses (every 16 months versus 30 in forearm AVFs, every 7 months versus 13 in grafts, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The percutaneous treatment of stenosis and thrombosis in haemodialysis access achieves patency rates similar to those reported in the surgical literature and confirms that grafts must be avoided as much as possible given their poorer outcome, especially after the first thrombosis. Poorer outcome is also demonstrated in accesses of less than 1 year's duration.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report the value of selective placement of self-expandable stents (Wallstent and Craggstent) for the treatment of limitations and, occasionally, of complications of dilation in hemodialysis access, and especially for delaying restenosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective study of a 7-year period, during which 41 Wallstents and 11 Craggstents were placed in 26 polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts, 15 native fistulas, and nine central veins of 47 patients. The indications were stenosis recoil (n = 13), recurrent restenosis within 6 months (n = 33), restenosis after 6 months (n = 3), and acute angioplasty-induced rupture (n = 1). Restenosis after stent placement necessitated redilation and percutaneous declotting and 10 additional stent placements. RESULTS Two initial misplacements were corrected immediately. Primary patency rates for PTFE grafts were 58% +/- 10% at 6 months and 23% +/- 10% at 1 year, respectively. Secondary patency rates were 100% at 6 months and 88% +/- 8% at 1 year, respectively. For native fistulas, primary patency rates were 47% +/- 12% at 6 months and 20% +/- 18% at 1 year. Secondary patency rates were 95% +/- 6% at 6 months and 79% +/- 14% at 1 year. It was necessary to reintervene after stent placement to maintain or to restore patency every 9 months for PTFE grafts and every 7.3 months for native fistulas. When stents were placed for treatment of early recurring restenosis, the mean interval between radiologic interventions (redilations or declottings) performed to maintain or to restore patency before stent placement was multiplied by 2.1 after stent placement for both grafts (3.2 months increased to 6.9, P < .01) and native fistulas (2.9 months increased to 6.2, P < .02). CONCLUSIONS Wallstents and Craggstents are valuable for the treatment of failure of regular dilation and they double the intervals between reinterventions for early (< 6 months) recurring stenoses in PTFE grafts and native fistulas.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of manual thromboaspiration as a single means of declotting dialysis access. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between April 1994 and December 1996, 59 consecutive conduits (43 polytetrafluoroethylene [PTFE] grafts, 16 native fistulas) were declotted with 8-F or 7-F angulated catheters. Unmasked stenoses were dilated. Clinical and paraclinical nephrologic surveillance (poor flow, palpation, difficulties with cannulation, increased compression times, increasing venous pressures) led to redilations and stent placements. Rethromboses were treated with further declotting by aspiration. The results are presented according to the life-table method. RESULTS The initial success of 43 of 43 PTFE grafts (mean procedure time, 119 min +/- 29 [standard deviation]) led to a primary patency rate of 85% +/- 5% (SE) at 1 month, 33% +/- 8% at 6 months, and 24% +/- 12% at 1 year. A graft was ligated 6 days after declotting for acute bleeding in one patient given high-dose warfarin. The secondary patency rates were 86% +/- 7% at 6 months and 86% +/- 9% at 1 year, with a mean duration of patency of 5.7 months between two radiologic interventions performed to maintain or to restore patency, and 19 stents were placed at a mean follow-up of 3 months. The success rate was 81% for native fistulas, with primary patency rates of 81% +/- 10% at 1 month, 74% +/- 14% at 6 months, and 60% +/- 27% at 1 year; secondary patency rates of 81% +/- 12% at 6 months and 81% +/- 18% at 1 year. CONCLUSION Thromboaspiration is a safe and effective method for declotting dialysis access, yielding a low rethrombosis rate during the first month. Overall radiologic management with reintervention on average every 6 months results in high secondary patency rates at 1 year (81%-86%).

Abstract
With the aim of helping physicians working in a "Mother and Infant Protection Service" (PMI) in their mission of children's development difficulties screening, authors tried to assess performances of a clinical tool including parental informations and standardized tests. The whole four years old children going at school in a canton of Calvados department were independently examined by a PMI doctor using the tool to be estimated and by a specialized service working from a beforehand established protocol. For the language disorders on the one hand and the adaptation on the other hand, this evaluation shows a significant correlation between the PMI screening and the specialists one's: the sensitivity of the PMI examination is about 70% for those two types of difficulties with a positive predictive value respectively 28% and 57%. However the tool appears less reliable for the psychomotor disorders screening: only one quarter of the children who require a specialized investigation about these problems have been detected by the PMI screening. A filing and a selection of the questionnaire items should permit to improve the efficiency of this tool.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the plasma arterial catecholamine response to nocturnal desaturation in a group of patients with a history suggestive of sleep apnea. PATIENTS AND METHODS At a Veterans Affairs hospital, 10 patients who had a history consistent with sleep apnea syndrome were involved in the study. Arterial plasma catecholamines were measured at varying intervals during a 5 1/2-hour sleep study. Eighteen samples per patient were analyzed. RESULTS As the hemoglobin saturation decreased, the variability in plasma norepinephrine increased significantly (r = -.78, P = 0.004). As the hemoglobin saturation fell, there was a trend towards higher concentrations of plasma norepinephrine (r = -.53, P = 0.06). As the hemoglobin saturation decreased, the variability in plasma epinephrine concentration was not significant (r = .42). CONCLUSION The association between the degree of desaturation and the variability in norepinephrine suggests that norepinephrine is released in response to nocturnal desaturation.

Abstract
Delta sleep-inducing-peptide (DSIP) has been reported to increase sleep in subjects with insomnia. The authors studied cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) DSIP-like immunoreactivity (DSIP-LI) in 15 drug-free male subjects with a DSM-IIIR diagnosis of schizophrenia. The subjects underwent a lumbar puncture and three nights of polysomnography. CSF DSIP-LI was significantly correlated with polysomnography the night before the LP: with stage 3 sleep (p = 0.05), stage 3 and delta (stages 3 + 4) sleep during the first nonrapid eye movement NREM period (p = 0.02 and p = 0.05, respectively) and the ratio of the first and second NREM period (p < 0.05), and negatively with stage 2% sleep (p < 0.05). Whether this first report of a potential relationship between CSF DSIP-LI and slow-wave sleep in man might be generalized to sleep in nonpsychiatric subjects awaits further study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The authors examined the relationship between negative symptoms and premorbid variables in drug-free schizophrenic patients. METHOD The authors studied 63 clinically stable male schizophrenic inpatients who were not receiving any psychoactive medication. The patients were classified as having negative, positive, or mixed symptoms, and their premorbid functioning during childhood, early adolescence, and late adolescence was assessed by using the Premorbid Adjustment Scale. Correlational analyses were applied to the classification and developmental models. RESULTS Patients with negative symptoms had significantly lower levels of premorbid functioning during late adolescence and significantly greater premorbid deterioration between childhood and early adolescence. Correlational analysis revealed significant positive relationships between premorbid variables and negative symptoms. CONCLUSIONS The data suggest that a deterioration in social and intellectual functioning between childhood and adolescence is associated with the development of a negative symptom syndrome in schizophrenia. The premorbid deterioration appears to be an early prodrome of the disorder. Whether this residual negative symptom syndrome is in some way related to the deficit syndrome of schizophrenia awaits a prospective study.

We measured CgA-like immunoreactivity (CgA-LI) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in 15 male schizophrenic patients (diagnosed by DSM-III-R criteria) after 3 nights of polysomnography. Patients had been drug free for at least 33 days. Our earlier report that CSF CgA-LI in schizophrenic patients correlated significantly with negative symptoms and ventricle-brain ratios, which have been related to slow wave sleep, raised the possibility that CgA-LI might relate to slow wave sleep. CSF CgA-LI was significantly correlated with stage 4 sleep and rapid eye movement latency. Whether these positive relationships between CSF CgA-LI and electroencephalographic sleep measures are specific for schizophrenia awaits further study.
