1.A Case of Guttate Morphea with Secondary Cutaneous Mucinosis.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1997;35(1):165-168
The cutaneous mucinose are a group of connective disorders characterized by the deposition of mucin in the dermis. Thc disease may be a primary (metabolic) or secondary (catabolic). Secondary mucinosis is common in lupus erythematosus and dermatomyositis but rare in morphea. We report a case of guttate morphea with secondary cutaneous mucinosis.

A 72-year-old woman with a pea sized, bluish, firm nodule was diagnosed as having a cellular type of dermatofibroma histopathologically. A biopsy specimen revealed a relatively well circumscribed, non-encapsulated, nodular infiltration of irregularly distributed histiocytes in the deep dermis. Foam cells were also noted. Gomoris iron stain revealed large amounts of hemosiderin deposits and some collagen were present as individual fibers in the lesion with Masson's trichrome stain.

Two cases of malignant histiocytosis, in which skin involvement was a prominent finding at initial clinical presentation, are reported. 1nteresting histopathologic findings, including Langerhans granule in one case and numerous eosinophils in another, were observed. In one case remission was achieved with BACOP chemotherapy (Bleomycin, Adriamycin, Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, and Prednisone). In the other case, the patient died nine months after the onset of the disease without any treatment.

PURPOSE: We evaluated the effects of amitriptyline in patients with urinary frequency or pelvic pain syndrome and compared with propiverine hydrochloride (BUP-4(R)) and diazepam (Valium(R)). MATERIALS AND METHODS: One-hundred and sixty-eight patients with urinary frequency or pain were included and 38 out of 168 patients were lost to follow up. The patients with interstitial cystitis, UTI and neurogenic bladder were excluded. Amitriptyline group were instructed to take 25mg to 75mg of amitriptyline before bed. Propiverine hy drochloride and diazepam group were instructed to take 20mg, 4-6mg before bed, respectively. The clinical effects and side effects were evaluated after 4 weeks of medication. RESULTS: In the amitriptyline group, 73.1% in 78 patients with frequency, 68.3% in 60 pain, 65.6% in 32 nocturia, 53.8% in 26 weak urinary stream, 53.8% in 13 dysuria, 72.7% in 11 urgency showed symptom improvement. Urinary frequency and pain score were significantly decreased in the amitriptyline group. In the propiverine hydrochloride group, 66.7% in 21 patients with frequency, 38.8% in 18 pain showed symptom improvement. In the diazepam group, 37.5% in 24 patients with frequency, 31.3% in 16 pain showed symptom improvement. Side effects of amitriptyline had appeared in 24 (27.6%) out of 87 patients; 17 cases of dry mouth, 10 drowsiness, 2 agitation, 2 nausea, 1 constipation and 1 skin rash. CONCLUSIONS: Amitriptyline is useful in vague voiding symptoms especially in urinary frequency and chronic pelvic pain syndrome. It is equally effective in both men and women. Side effects are minimal and tolerable. A double-blind placebo-controlled trial is necessary for general acceptance in the future.

9.Papillary Eccrine Adenoma.

We report a case of papillary eccrine adenoma occurring in a 39-year-old male who had a walnut sized, firm nodule on the right knee without subjective symptoms. Histopathologic exammination revealed a well circumscribed, non-capsulated dermal nodule consisting of multiple ducts with various sizes. These ducts were composed of double layered epithelial cells in most areas, but in some areas severe intraluminal papillation snd pseudostratification into the lumen were seen and the lumina were filled with a homogenous eosinophilic substance and partially with calcium deposition. Immunohistochemical studies with S-100 antigen and csrcinoembryonic sntigen (CEA) were also performed. Positivity for these sntigens strongly supports the hypothesis that this unusual neoplasm differentiates toward the eccrine secretory coil.

10.X linked ichthyosis.

We report herein a case of multiple glomus tumors on the scrotum in a 14-year-old boy. The lesions were present at birth and had gradually increased in size and number. Pea to thumb tip sized, dark colored nodules without pain sensation were confined to the scrotum. Histopathologically, there were many dilated and irregular vascular spaces lined by a single layer of flattened endothelial cells in the dermis. In the periphery of the endothelial cells, there are a few layers of glomus cells. No capsule was seen. Total excision of the tumors was performed. No recurrence was observed for an year after surgical excision.
