[Severe late rectal bleeding after biopsy of prostate: a case report]. / Rectorragie abondante tardive après biopsies de prostate : à propos d'un cas.

The biopsy of the prostate is a common medical act, which is little invasive and can easily be practiced in external care. Some cases of early rectal or urinary bleedings, which mainly stopped spontaneously, have been described in the literature. The case reported here is that of a patient whose hemorrhagic syndrome arose more than two weeks after the biopsy and required an endoscopic haemostatic treatment.

[Crohn's disease with anoperineal lesions: use of MRI]. / Maladie de Crohn révélée par des lésions anopérinéales: intérêt de l'IRM.

The authors report a case of perineal Crohn disease with three anal fissures. Because of a persistant fever without any clinical aspect of abscess they practiced MRI examination that discovered an abscess of the recto-vaginal wall. The patient was operated under general anaesthesia. This clinical case shows the interest of radiologic exams, particularly pelvic MRI for the precise lesional diagnosis of anoperineal lesions of Crohn's disease, that is still complex and difficult to treat.

[Laparoscopic preperitoneal hernia repair]. / Cure de hernies inguinales vidéoscopique par voie prépéritonéale.

The authors describe a technique of totally preperitoneal videoscopic inguinal hernia repair. This method allows, by cleavages, to obtain a preperitoneal space where can be individualised anatomical structures of the inguinofemoral area: pubis, pectineal ligament of Cooper, epigastric vessels. After squelettisation of the elements of the cord by release of the hernial bag, installation of a not fixed prosthesis largely covers the hernial rings.
