1.A Case of Molluscum Contagiosum on the Upper and Lower Eyelids.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1987;28(3):641-643
Molluscum contagiosum is a contagious disease of the skin charaterized by the appearance of small globular, umblicated epithelial tumors, and caused by a virus of pox virus group. Authors experienced a case of molluscum contagiosum on the right upper and lower eyelids. And there was follicular conjunctivitis, but no corneal complication. The lesion was managed by simple extraction of the lesion under the local infiltration anesthesia.

2.A Study of Anctiviy with CAstsnea Crenata Flos.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1976;14(2):91-95
There are many herbs used in the treatment of dermatophytosis as home medicine and Castanea crenata Flos (C.C.F.) is one of that used in Kyung gi-do district. With that regard we tried to examine in vitro antifungal activity of the C.C.F. with its water extract and alcohol extract as the test materials. Until now many authors have studied the antifungal activity with several plant extracts, as like the alcohol extracts of Zanthoxylum piperatum Fructus and Berberis Korea palibin or Fennel oil, and reported that these plant extrscts or essential oiI have good antifungal activities in vitro and in vivo. On that they said that the principal fractions those have strong fungistatic activity were all alikely the fatty acids chemically similar with the well known undecylenic acid. At this in vitro experiment the extracts of C.C.F. were diluted. serially in the Sabourauds dextrose agar and certain portions of fungi (the strains of Trichophyton (Tr.) mentagrophytes and Tr. rubrum) were transplanted into each medium containing different concentrations of test materials then observed its growth for 2 weeks at room temperature. After that we measured the sizes of colony grown in various conditions and compired with that of the normal medium to determine the fungistatic effectiveness. As the result, in the view of the colony sizes, Tr. mentagrophytes and Tr. rubrum equally revealed marked inhibition of its growth only in the media with water extract over the concentration of 10mg/ml in the mediurn, and the critical fungistatic dilution was 20 mg/ml. We could not identified the principal fraction in the water extract of C.C.F.which exhibited antifungal activity. In the comparison of the critical fungistatic dilution with the alcohol extract of Zanthoxylum piperaturn Fructus and Fennel oil, water extract of C.C.F. required tenfold higher concentration for the same effect. However in regarding the utilizing habits of C.C.F. in horne medicine, as topical wet dressing with water boiled solution, we might expect its effect practically. iVow there are problems to be investigated about the chemical natures and physical properties of the C.C.F. and for the antifungal fractions of it, in addition further in vivo study we thought would be interesting.

riie snbjects werc 269 patients with uncomplicated gonococcal urethritis, who visited the Veiereal Disease Clinic of Choong-Ku Public Health Center in Fieoul from August to Decernber 1984. ()ni hundred and four of 108 patients treated with 1.anamycin, 2 gm, IM plus anipi illin,3.5 gm, p0 plus probenecid, 1 gm, PO regirrien recovered with 65(62. 5 post-gonococcal urethritis(PGlJ) and 4(3.7%) failed, One hundred and seven of III patients treated with kanamycin, 2 gm, IM plus talarnpicillin, 2 gm, PO plus probenecid, 1 gm, po regimen recovered with 71 (66. 4% ) post-goriococcal urethritis and 4(3. 6%) failed. It is suggeste,d that both these antibiotic comlbination regimens have similarly good effect in the treatment. of gonococcal urethritis.

Two cases of Weber-Christian disease are reported. This very rare disease, we had two another reports of case sincc last ten years in The Korean Journal of Dermatology. In our cases both patients are seventeen years old girls and have the histories of remissions and exacerbations for two to three years. The skin lesions of subcutaneous nodules are scattered on the trunk, extremities and even to the hand dorsurns, with the atrophic depressions. Histologic features are typical with faormy histiocytes in the subcutaneous fat tissue. On tne treatments these patients are given oral corticosteroid, antihistaminics and salicylate with some improvments.

Plaster of Paris is an effective ancillary treatment in the surgery of infected cavities in bone. It is well tolerated and spontaneously absorbed over the period of weeks to months, being replaced by bone of normal architecture. When the antibiotics incorporated into plaster of Paris, the antibiotics are capable of prolonged local release in bactericidal concentrations. Therefore it is proposed that antibiotics loaded plaster of Paris might be a simple adjuvant technique after good surgical debridement for the treatment of bone infection. The authors carried out an experiment to study the effect of plaster of Paris containing antibiotics for a prevention of experimental osteomyelitis, using 45 rats, which were divided into 3 groups. In the Group 1, a defect was made at the proximal metaphysis of the tibia, inoculated by Staphylococcus aureus sensitive to Cephradine and Tobramycin and then filled with plaster of Paris pellet. In the Group 2, a defect was filled with Cephradine loaded plaster of Paris pellet. In the Group 3, a defect was filled with Tobramycin loaded plaster of Paris pellet. Then we observed the healing process of the bone defect in the point of view of the gross findings, radiologic findings and histologic findings at 4th, 8th and 12th week after operation. The results of this study were as follows:l. In the control Group;all 30 cases were infected. 2. In the Group 2;only 4 of 30 cases were infected. 3. In the Group 3;all 30 cases were not infected. 4. The plaster of Paris filled into the defect was absorbed continuously and stimulated the new bone formation.

A 46-year-old male patient had recurrent episodes of generalized pruritic wheals during hemodialysis. He has experienced urticaria during hemodialysis whenever he used a capillary dialyser sterilized by ethylene oxide(EO, Polysulfone-) gas which is used to sterilize hemodialysers and other medical equipment. On the other hand, capillary dialyser sterilized by Gamma ray (Hemophad) has not evoked urticaria. Although the presence of EO-specific antibodies was not detected, urticarial rash never developed when the equipment was switched to a gamma-sterilized one. We herein report a case referred to ethylene oxide induced cutaneous hypersensitivity during hemodialysis.
