Abstract
Seventy-four children with juvenile chronic arthritis were admitted to a 6-month multicentric double blind comparative study of the efficiency of D-Penicillamine or placebo. The results evaluated in 55 patients who completed the study, indicated an improvement in the total number of stiff joints and in the total index of severity measuring joint pain and inflammation. A significant reduction of the concurrent use of non steroidal antiinflammatory drugs was also observed. The tolerance was good except in two patients. Some children in the placebo group exhibited a definite improvement.

Abstract
Three families presenting one or several cases of brain or ophthalmic abnormalities and an hypopituitarism at least by one of the members have been observed. In the first family, the mother and one of her sons present bilateral choroidoretineal coloboma with amblyopia; one of these two suffers as well from panhypopituitarism. In the second family two premature twins, a brother and his sister, present a syndrome with hypophyseal dwarfism and ophthalmic abnormalities, consisting in the boy's case in an peripapillary depigmentation with no visible sight trouble whereas girl's is showing an extreme microphthalmia with major mental retardation. In the third family two 2nd degree cousins present a panhypopituitarism but only one of the two reveals through neuroradiological investigations corpus callosum and septum lucidum agenesia. The karyotype is normal in all the cases. An hereditary mechanism appears clearly in the first family. It is possible in the second, probable in the third one.

Abstract
The systematic prenatal diagnosis of 5 cases of urinary tract malformations out of 2 500 pregnancies in 1982 in a special care maternity, or 2 per 1 000 is compared with the discovery of 10 cases in 28 months in 17 960 foetuses, or 0.55 per 1 000 whereas the overall frequency varies from 0.3 to 5.25 per 1 000 in infants. We studied 13 children whose prenatal abnormalities were 2 unilateral ureterohydronephrosis and 7 bilateral dilatations associated to 2 ureteroceles, 1 multicystic dysplasia and 1 ureteral duplicity. All of these except two were confirmed at birth. The exceptions consisted in one unilateral dilatation and one bilateral ureterohydronephrosis which turned out to be dysplastic kidneys unknown during pregnancy. Three ureteral duplicities were also ignored. The results are the following: Three cases were severe: one therapeutic abortion after 27 weeks, one intra-uterine decompression followed after few days by a preterm delivery and neonatal death and one provocated preterm delivery (36 weeks). All the others underwent decompression during the first hours of their life. Five cases can be considered unsuccessful: 2 abortions, the death of a 22 days old infant with an unilateral multicystic dysplasia and 2 bilateral malformations with renal failure, one of which was associated to an unilateral dysplastic kidney. Reliability of sonography as well as its interest in prognosis and prenatal evaluation of renal function are demonstrated.

Abstract
Reactive arthritis is arthritis in which, although the nature of the responsible infection is known or suspected upon serological grounds, attempts at recovering the pathogen from the synovial fluid have failed. One of the main pathogenetic problems is the multiplicity of etiologic agents. Some are exogenous and may be related to the articular tropism of certain microorganisms, to immunologic depression due to an antecedent or coincident infection, and to successive reinfections by the same pathogen or by others which may promote an exacerbation of the disease. Others are endogenous and attention should be given to the local or systemic presence of an antigen as well as, in some instances, to the persistence of residual forms of infecting agents, which are more readily demonstrated with current bacteriological and serological methods. Although reactive arthritis is to be distinguished from septic arthritis, it can no longer be clearly differentiated from the classical post-infectious rheumatism. Once it has been produced, the antigenic stimulation is responsible for an immunologic response which tends to check systemic extension but may also produce tissue damage in the host. Some patients have circulating immune complexes which may bind to the joint, thereby damaging it. In other patients, particularly those who are HLA B27 positive, host-pathogen cross-reactions are demonstrated. Actually, the most frequent pathogenetic sequence seems to be a combination of two or more of these mechanisms, as there are reasons to believe that presence of the pathogen in situ is not required for the persistence of the inflammatory process. Reactive arthritis was first reported in adults following either sexually transmitted urethritis due to chlamydiae, mycoplasma or gonococci, or hepatitis B or an intestinal infection due to Yersinia, Campylobacter, Shigella, Klebsiella or Salmonella. Later, it was described in pediatric patients, particularly in Scandinavia where, for genetic reasons, the HLA B27 group is prevailing. Reactive arthritis seems less frequent in caucasian ethnic groups and above all in Latin Americans among whom HLA B27 carriers are more uncommon; however, it must be pointed out that they have not been as extensively studied and that other etiologic factors may still remain to be discovered. The course and etiology of the different forms of arthritis share certain characteristics which have been determined through a better knowledge of these conditions: onset occurs one or several weeks after a respiratory, urinary or, most often in children, digestive infection. This episode is unremarkable or latent and often overlooked.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Bilateral adrenal haemorrhage was diagnosed in 3 newborns. Clinical, biological and hormonal features were different in each case: abdominal mass in the first case; hyponatremic dehydration for the two others. This hyponatremic dehydration was related to temporary acute adrenal insufficiency for one newborn while association with medullary necrosis did not allow to assert hypoadrenalism for the other. These three cases emphasize: 1) variability of presentation at onset; 2) heterogeneousness of salt loose syndrome; 3) interest of systematic renal and adrenal exploration in adrenal haemorrhage.

Abstract
A prepubertal boy with hypopituitarism, mental retardation, dysmorphia and solitary maxillary central incisor is described, karyotypic studies showed deletion of the short arm of chromosome 18 (46, XY, del (18) (p11). It is suggested that caryotypic studies is of interest among the patients with midline defects and/or hypopituitarism.

Abstract
A young girl 12 old, sent to us for obesity, and coxa-epiphysiolysis showed signs of mental retardation and bilateral thumb ankylosis. The fact that the mother was also affected by both of these signs, led to a more detailed genetic research. The latter revealed that not only the daughter, the mother, but also their own mother and may be, the sister, the grand-mother and the great-aunt of the patient had a retardation, a slight dysmorphia, a type A brachydactylia, signs of obesity and an identical ankylosis of both thumbs. This vertical inheritance, affecting apparently females only, but not associated with a high rate of miscarriage, has, it seems, never been reported. The characteristics of this family are being considered and discussed.

Abstract
Anterior panhypopituitarism has been observed in one of monozygous twin girls. Etiologic investigations were negative and only suggested an hypothetic perinatal insult. Genetic abnormalities could be excluded. Replacement therapy with human growth hormone was strikingly successful, with a remarkable catch-up growth and, however, a velocity of bone age comparable with the velocity of growth.

Abstract
A case of hereditary autosomal recessive thrombocytopenia is reported. Thrombocytopathy is associated with the thrombocytopenia. There is a contrast between the cytologic aspect of poor bone-marrow without any megakaryocyte and the histologic aspect of dense bone-marrow with a normal number of megakaryocytes. Myelofibrosis can explain this discrepancy. The life time of platelets being just a little shortened, the disease is probably due to a lack of bone-marrow production.

Abstract
An atrophy of villi without digestive troubles is found in a 3 1/2 years old boy with a typical Duhring's disease. This observation proves the interest to research an enteropathy in case of dermatitis herpetiformis, and on the other hand the gluten free diet's efficacity on the cutaneous lesions. The authors consider cutaneous lesions's pathogeny and the antigenic relations between these two diseases.
