ETIOPATOGENESI DELL'ATRESIA INTESTINALE. Ricerche Sperimentali condotte sull'Embrione di pollo
Gli Autoyi hanno eseguito una serie di ricerche sperimentali su embrioni di Gallus Domesticus allo scopo di verificare alcune cause di atresia inyestinale
FATTORI PROGNOSTICI NELL'EVOLUZIONE DEL REFLUSSO VESCICO-URETERALE IN ETA' PEDIATRICA

Multiple Congenital Colonic Stenosis: Case Report and Review of the Literature
Congenital malformations affecting the colon are rare pediatric conditions often presenting as obstruction. Colonic atresia accounts for 5-‐10% of atresia in newborns, stenosis is even more rare.Since 1968, only 16 cases of CCS have been reported in literature (Table 1). Because of the rarity of the disease, little is known about this uncommon condition and management is still controversial. We present a case of multiple congenital colonic stenosis and review the literature with a special focus on management of CCS. To the authors' knowledge, multiple congenital colonic stenosis has not been reported previously in the literature.

SPLENOGONADAL FUSION: A Genetic disorder? Report of a Case and Review of the Literature
Splenogonadal fusion is a rare congenital anomaly in which there is fusion between the spleen and gonad, epididymis or vas. We treated a patient with scrotal mass. A discontinuous fusion between the spleen and epididymis was found: after frozen section mass was excised sparing testis. Although rare, the splenogonadal fusion should be considered in the differential diagnosis of scrotal masses in children, and orchiectomy should be avoided. Moreover, examination of siblings showed a brother affected from accessory spleen. This finding, not reported previously to our knowledge, suggests a possible familiarity of this disorder.
