    Notes: Conclusion L'agénésie de la vésicule biliaire est bien connue mais elle réalise une anomalie congénitale rare. Si la vésicule biliaire n'est pas visualisée dans son site normal, cette anomalie doit être fortement suspectée. Si au décours d'une laparoscopie, l'examen de toutes les localisations ectopiques n'est pas réalisable, la conversion par une laparotomie chirurgicale pour identifier les éventuelles localisations ectopiques nécessitent une large dissection chirurgicale exposant à des délabrements ; étant donné que les conditions cliniques ne menacent pas la vie du sujet, le plus souvent, il est préférable pour ces raisons de suggérer, plutôt qu'une laparotomie chirurgicale, des investigations utilisant l'endoscopie rétrograde des voies bilerais et hépatiques et le scanner abdominal.

    Notes: Abstract The highly complex embryological development of the left renal vein compared to its right counterpart results in greater variations which are clinically significant. The study aimed to identify these variations and to document its incidence. Cadaveric study: 153 kidney pairs were harvested en bloc, dissected, 100 resin casts prepared and 53 plastinated; renal venography performed on further 58 adults and 20 foetal cadavers. Clinical study: (retrospective analysis): a) radiological study, 104 renal venograms; b) live related renal transplantation, 148 donor left kidneys; c) abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery, 525 patients. Total sample size: 1008. Renal collars observed in 0.3%; retro-aortic vein 0.5%; additional veins 0.4%; posterior primary tributary 23.2%, (16.7% Type IB; 6.5% Type IIB, cadaveric series, only). Our results differ significantly in incidence to that reported in the literature: renal collar 0.2-30%; retro-aortic vein 0.8-7.1%; additional renal vein 0.8-6%. Variations are clinically silent and remain unnoticed until discovered during venography, operation or autopsy. To a transplant surgeon, morphology acquires special significance, since variations influence technical feasibility of operation. Prior knowledge of circum-aortic vein is important when blood samples from suprarenal or renal veins are collected. Collar may provide developed collateral pathway immediately after surgery if renal interruption planned without awareness of its presence. Variations restrict availability of vein for mobilisation procedures. In aortic aneurysm repair, retro-aortic vein is important. During retroperitoneal surgery, the surgeon may visualise a pre-aortic vein but be unaware of an additional retroaortic component or a posterior primary tributary, and may avulse it while mobilising the kidney or clamping the aorta.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Du développement embryologique très complexe de la veine rénale gauche, comparé à son homologue droit, il résulte d'importantes variations, significatives du point de vue clinique. Le but de cette étude est d'identifier ces variations et de préciser leur fréquence. 1-Recherches cadavériques : (153 paires de reins ont été prélevées en bloc, disséquées) 100 moulages par résines et 53 plastinations. En outre, des phlébographies rénales post-mortem ont été réalisées, 58 chez des adultes, 20 chez des fœtus. 2-Etudes cliniques (analyse rétrospective) : a) radiologiques : 104 veinogrammes rénaux, b) lors de transplantations rénales : 148 reins gauches de donneurs, c) au cours de la chirurgie de l'anévrysme de l'aorte thoracique : 525 patients. Soit, au total, 1008 reins. Le collier rénal a été observé dans 0,3 % de la série ; la v. rétro-aortique, 0,5 %, des vv. rénales supplémentaires : 0,4 % ; enfin, un collecteur rénal postérieur existait dans 23,2 % des séries cadavériques (16,7 % du type IB de notre classification et 6,5 % du type II B). Nos résultats diffèrent de façon significative par leur faible fréquence de celle relatée dans la littérature : collier rénal (0,2–30 %), veine rétro-aortique (0,8–7,1 %), veine rénale supplémentaire (0.8–6%). Les variations sont silencieuses cliniquement et demeurent méconnues jusqu'à leur découverte par phlébographie, opération ou autopsie. Pour le chirurgien transplanteur, la morphologie a une signification particulière puisque les variations déterminent la faisabilité technique ou non de l'opération. La connaissance préalable de la veine circum-aortique est importante lors du prélèvement d'échantillons sanguins des veines surrénaliennes ou rénales. Le collier rénal peut favoriser la formation d'un réseau collatéral dense immédiatement après l'opération, si l'interruption de la veine rénale est pratiquée sans connaissance de ce dispositif. Les variations restreignent l'utilisation de la veine dans les techniques de mobilisation. Lors de la cure d'un anévrysme aortique, l'existence d'une veine rétro-aortique est importante à connaitre. Lors d'une intervention rétro-péritonéale, le chirurgien repère la veine pré-aortique, mais il méconnait une branche rétro-aortique supplémentaire, ou un tronc primaire postérieur qu'il peut léser en mobilisant le rein ou en clampant l'aorte.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'absence congénitale de la vésicule biliaire est une malformation dont l'incidence est évaluée de 0,013 à 0,075 %. Nous rapportons deux observations d'agénésie de la vésicule biliaire, représentant les premiers cas de l'Afrique du Sud, nous les confronterons au 413 cas de la littérature. Pour confirmer le diagnostic d'agénésie de la vésicule biliaire, il est nécessaire d'exclure les localisations vésiculaires anormales, soit intra-hépatiques, soit rétro-hépatiques, soit dans le foie gauche, soit à l'intérieur de l'omentum ou du ligament falciforme, voire même rétro-péritonéales. Les patients porteurs d'agénésie de la vésicule biliaire sont classés en trois catégories : 1) Sujets porteurs de multiples anomalies foetales (12,9 %) 2) Sujets asymptômatiques (33,6 %) 3) Sujets avec manifestations cliniques (55,6 %). Néanmoins, les modalités diagnostiques habituelles peuvent, dans de rares conditions, se présenter dans le cadre d'une urgence chirurgicale abdominale. L'agénésie de la vésicule biliaire est une malformation bien connue, mais reste une anomalie rare. Avec l'avènement des abords chirurgicaux à minima, la laparotomie peut être évitée à condition que dans les cas suspectés, on réalise une exploration par endoscopie rétrograde des voies biliaires et pancréatiques (ERCP) et un scanner abdominal.
    Notes: Summary Congenital absence of the gall bladder is an extremely rare embryological aberration with a reported incidence ranging between 0.013 and 0.075%. This report, the first from South Africa, discusses 2 cases of gall bladder agenesis, bringing to 413 the number of cases reported in the literature. In confirming the diagnosis of an agenesis of the gall bladder, it is necessary to exclude the abnormal locations which are intrahepatic, retrohepatic, on the left side, or within the lesser omentum or falciform ligament and retroperitoneal. Patients with gall bladder agenesis are classified into 3 categories: i) Multiple foetal anomaly (12.9%), ii) Asymptomatic (31.6%) and iii) Symptomatic (55.6%). Notwithstanding current diagnostic modalities, this rare condition may still present a dilemma to the abdominal surgeon. Agenesis of the gall bladder is a well-recognised but uncommon congenital abnormality. With the advent of minimal access surgery laparotomy may be avoided as the condition, when suspected, may be confirmed by ERCP and CT scan.

    Notes: Abstract  The influence of lead acetate (50 mg per kg body weight) on the 131iodine (131I) biokinetics (uptake and retention) in rat thyroid and serum levels of triiodothyronine (T3) as well as thyroxine (T4) was evaluated as a function of time and in combination with lithium treatment. The 2-h and 24-h uptake of 131I in the thyroid was stimulated significantly by lead treatment. The 24-h uptake showed a maximum stimulation after 4 months of lead treatment. Lithium supplementation, however, showed the opposite effect by reducing the iodine uptake, whereby the maximum decrease was noticed after 2 months of treatment. Further, simultaneous lead and lithium treatment resulted in an even more pronounced increase of 2-h 131I uptake with a maximum after 3 months. However, the 24-h uptake after 3 months and 4 months of treatment did not differ significantly from the lead treated reference groups. The thyroidal biological half-life of 131I (Tbiol) was found to have clearly increased following the lead/lithium treatment. Interestingly, the combined lead/lithium treatment applied for 4 months caused a further growth of Tbiol, thus reflecting an increased retention of 131I. A maximum increase of Tbiol was seen after 2 months of combined treatment. A progressive decline of the circulating T3 and T4 levels following lead or lithium treatment was noticed and was more pronounced after combined treatment.

    Notes: Abstract Clostridium botulinum type A cells, when challenged to elevated temperature (45°C), increased the expression of at least nine heat shock proteins (HSPs). Simultaneously with the induction of HSPs, changes in the synthesis rates of other cellular proteins were observed. A 40-kDa stress protein was induced and its synthesis rate was enhanced when the cells were shifted to 45°C. Using heterologous antibodies raised against E. coli DnaJ heat shock proteins, the 40-kDa stress protein of C. botulinum type A has been identified as a DnaJ-like chaperone. The DnaJ chaperone might be involved in translocation of the neurotoxin and other cellular proteins across the cell membrane, repair of damaged proteins, and organism survival inside the host. This is the first report of the existence of a DnaJ-like chaperone in this organism.

    Notes: Abstract Energies of the first 2+, 3− and 4+ states of even-even nuclei are plotted against proton and neutron number. Using this systematics, shell effects and the corresponding quadrupole and hexadecapole collectivity and deformation effects are compared and contrasted. Also, the corresponding B(E2), B(E3) and B(E4) values are plotted against neutron number and their very different systematics compared. Among the new results are the presence of hexadecapole collectivity at the 82 proton and neutron closed shells and the presence of the maximum values of B(E4) at neutron numbers 10, 90–92 and 140–146. Finally, the systematics of the hexadecapole (K = 4+) vibrations is compared with that of the quadrupole (K = 2+) gamma vibrations in the quadrupole deformed rare earth region.
