Introduction. Tubocutaneous fistula is a very rare condition; most cases described in the literature are secondary to endometriosis, tuberculosis, and complications of child birth and gynecological operations.Case Presentation. We report a case of 40-year-old woman who presented with tubocutaneous fistula secondary to pelvic inflammatory disease which was diagnosed in the setting of persistent discharging wound in the right groin.Conclusion. Tubocutaneous fistula is a rare condition. Salpingectomy and resection of fistulous tract is the treatment of choice as is treating the underlying cause. Early diagnosis and treatment of these patients are essential for avoiding long term complications.

I am writing in response to the recommendations in the statement "Treatment Guidelines for Lead Exposure in Children," by the Committee on Drugs, reported in the July 1995 issue of Pediatrics. The Committee did an admirable job in reviewing the various aspects of treating lead poisoning; however, there are several points that were made that need to be clarified. Although no one would argue that treatment is indicated for lead encephalopathy, there have been no studies, to my knowledge, of a double-blind, controlled nature, showing that treatment of lead poisoning, in the absence of clinical symptoms, is of any use in either reversing any neurologic or developmental abnormalities or, in fact, in prevention of such.
