Lymphomatoid papulosis(LyP) is a chronic recurrent dermatosi characterized by involuting and recurring papules, plaques, and nodules showing histologic feaurs suggesting rnalignant lymphoma. On histologic ground, it is divided into two types. type A and type B. In type A, large atypical lymphocytes are the main cellular cornponent and most of these express CD 30(Ki-1) antigen, which has been p!reviously thought to be specific for Read Sternberg cells of Hodgkins disease. In type B, cerebriform mononuclear lymphocytes sirr la to those in mycosis fungoides predominates. We report two cases of lymphomatoid papulosis, type A and type B, respectively. The large atypical cells in type A LyP expressed Ki 1 antigen. Both case were treated with PUVA and the outcome of the treatment has been fair.

To investigate the factors which affecting the cognitive impairment of the 60 or more age group, the authors surveyed for the subjects in some area of Kyungnam Province. 201 studied subjects were tested for cognitive function with mini-mental state examination(MMSE). Information on demographic characteristics and life style has been collected through direct interview. The concentration of Al and Ca of subject's drinking water, which might be related with cognition, was measured by Inductively Coupled Argon Plasma Spectrometer. The main results were summarized as follows. 1. The prevalence rate of cognitive impairment was 18.4% in male and 45.2% in female and this sexual difference was statistically significant(p=0.03). And the uneducated or illiterated showed significantly high prevalence rate of cognitive impairment(p=0.02). 2. In stratified analysis by sex and education year, we can not see significant trend indicating the neurotoxic effects of aluminum and protective effects of calcium to the cognitive function(p>0.05). 3. The correlation between the concentration of aluminum in drinking water and the MMSE score in whole subjects showed weak negative relationship(r=-0.066). But there was no statistical significance(p=0.434).

Kerion celsi is severe inflammatory type of tinea capitis. It occurs almost exclusively in pre-pubertal children. We report a case of Kerion celsi occuring in a 79-year-old woman. Culture of infected hair on Sabouraud glucose agar showed Microsporum canis Farnily history and fungus study suggested the importance of indirect route in Microsporum canis infection.

It has been suspected that the cannula of the ultrasonic generator became heated during liposuction, and that the heated cannula might possibly damage the soft tissues such as vessels, nerves and muscles. To confirm these suspicions, the actual temperature of the cannula was measured after being switched on, and the influence of the heated cannula on the soft tissues of 30 rabbits was studied macroscopically and microscopically. When the cooling system of ultrasonic generator was not operated, the temperature of a cannula tip increased to 100degrees C in 10 seconds, and the temperature of a cannula shaft did not increase over 40 degrees C. When the cooling system of the ultrasonic generator was operated, the temperature of the cannula tip increased to 70 degrees C in 20 seconds and to 100 degrees C in 1 minute. The stronger ultrasonic power was, the higher the temperature of the cannula tip was. When the heated cannnula tip touched the muscles, vesseles and nerves directly, the arterial and venous walls were perforated in about 20 seconds and 10 seconds, respectively. Gross changes of the muscles, such as color change and depression of the contacted area, were seen in about 30 seconds, and histological changes occurred in about 3 seconds. When adding the Klein solution, an infiltration solution for increasing the destructive effects of the ultrasound, the onset time of tissue damage was significantly shortened in vessels and nerves, but there was no significant difference in muscles. Although there was no finding of damage by the ultrasonic wave itself on the vessels, nerves, and muscles during ultrasonic liposuction, this study confirmed that the heated cannula could damage vessels, nerves, and muscles. Thus we must try to avoid placing the cannula at certain areas for more than 10 seconds douring the ultrasonic liposuction.

Primary hyperparathyroidism is a rare endocrine disease in children. It involves bone and joint, urinary tract, gastrointestinal tract and cardiovascular system. The main cause of these involvement is high level of PTH in serum, resulting in hypercalcemia.An 11 years old male patient who had complained of limping gait since last 18 months, showed typical laboratory and radiological findings of primary hyperparathyroidism. At the ultrasonography, computed tomography and radionuclide scanning, a well defined mass(10 X 15mm) was found on the posterior aspect of the right thyroid lobe. The mass was confirmed histologically as adenoma of parathyroid gland. The patient was successfully treated with subtotal parathyroidectomy and temporal administration of calcium and vitamin D.We report this case of primary hyperparathyroidism with brief review of the literatures.

Pellegrini-Stieda's disease is a post-traumatic disorder of the knee. It is characterized by a crescentric-like bony formation in the region of the medial condyle of the femur, which usually makes its appearance upon roentgenographic examination three or more weeks after injury to the knee. During the three and a half years from January 1979 to July 1982, eleven patients were treated by conservative method and only one patient was treated by operation. The results were as follows; l. All give a history of trauma. 2. The major findings in this disease were pain in motion, local tenderness, and limitation of motion. 3. In roentgenographic findings of these cases, we noted the followings: 1) The most common site of the calcification was the proximal area of the tibial collateral ligament. 2) In seven cases (58%), the evidence of calcification was noted in 4 weeks to 12 weeks following original trauma. 3) Eight cases (67%) showed a radiolucent area from 0.5 to 3mm in thickness between the bony shadow and the femur. 4) Eight cases (67%) showed a crescentric shape of calcified area. 5) In seven cases (58%), the size of calcified mass was 1.5 to 3.5cm in length and 1 to 3mm in width. The mean size of calcified mass about 3cm in length and about 2.5mm in width. 4. Eleven cases were treated conservatively and one case was treated operatively. The results were satisfactory, and all patients were able to return to their works.

Migraine is a common neurologic disorder with recurrent headache and variable accompanying symptoms. Patients with migraine have suffered by an enormous burden on daily life and impairment of quality of life (QoL), but migraine is still underdiagnosed and undertreated. For early and better diagnosis and treatment of migraine, headache education and instruments for evaluation of headache outcomes including QoL and disability are essential. Nonpharmachological treatment like cognitive-behavior therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, lifestyle modification and trigger avoidance, biofeedback, relaxation training can reduce frequency of pain, disability, so headache education might be helpful. Headache diary and instruments for evaluation of QoL, disability and comorbidity like Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS), Headache Impact Test-6 (HIT-6), Migraine-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MSQ) are useful tools to decide plans of treatment. When nonpharmachological treatment and headache education are well applied and evaluation of the QoL and disability are reflected, it will help improve the quality of life for migraine patients.
