[Paget's disease: a case history, clinical and therapeutic contribution].
The authors, after referring the various pathogenetic hypotheses for Paget's disease (till the latest hypothesis of infection by slow-action virus) report their follow-up of forty-five patients with Paget's disease of bone; then explain their diagnostic method, and record complications stressing the sarcomatous degeneration. Finally they give details on their therapeutic treatment emphasizing the need of hematochemical and radiographic periodical controls in order to optimize the treatment case by case.
