2.A Case of Follicular Mucinosis.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1984;22(6):651-654
A 17-year-old male had a coin sized, follicular plaque on the glabella for 3 months. Histopathologic examination revealed reticular degeneration in the pilosebaceous follicles and amorphous homogenous materials between the degenerated cells. Alcian blue and toluidine blue stained the material as blue and metachromatically purple, respectively. The material was subsequently confirmed as acid mucopolysaccharide. Two months after the initial visit, the lesion showed a tendancy to heal spontaneously. According to the data obtained, the case was considered as an acute benign form of follicular mucinosis.

Acquired digital fibrokeratoma is an uncommon, solitary, round, firm, more or less hyperkeratotic projection, most frequently situated on fingers or toes but occasionally on the other locations. It arises out of a collarette of slightly raised skin and may have slight or great resemblance to a rudimentary supernumerary digit or may be mistaken for some other more ordinary condition such as an odd cutareous horn. We experienced a case of acquired digital fibrokeratoma on the right second finger in a 25-year-old male. We treated it with total excision.

5.A Clinical Study of 32 Patients with Sweet' s Syndrome.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1995;33(5):907-913
BACKGROUND: The clinical study of Sweets syndrome has never been reported in Korea. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to elucidate the clinical observations and associated diseases of Sweets syndrome. METHODS: During a 5-year-period from Jan. 1990 to Dec. 1994, 32 patients were evaluated in regard to age incidence, sex ratio, location of skin lesions, and associated diseases. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS : 1, The age distribution was in the range of 21-70 years. Most patients were between 31 to 40 years of age. There were 12 male patients and 20 female giving a sex distribution of 1.7: 1 ratio in favor of the fernale. 2. The most cornmon site of iavolvement was the arm(37.5%). 3. ESR was increased in 21 patients(65.6%) and leukocytosis was present in 13 patients(40.6) 4. The most common associated disease was Behcets disease(31.2%). 5. Steroids were used mos frequently for treatment of Sweets syndrome with 12 patients(37.5%). Recurrence occurred in 7 patients(21.9%). The results show that the iniidence of Sweets syndrome in men in Korea is not as rre as was previously thought and tfiat there are many associated diseases especially Behcets disease.

6.Multiple Perifollicular Fibromas.
Annals of Dermatology 1990;2(1):68-69
We report a case of multiple perifollicular fibromas. The patient was a 23-year-old female who had numerous skin colored perifollicular papules of 10 years' duration on her left cheek without any symptoms. Some of the perifollicular papules had a central comedo. A skin biopsy specimen of a perifollicular papule showed dense concentric fibrous sheaths surrounding the hair follicles.

7.Untrastructure of Melanocyte in Penile Melanosis.
Annals of Dermatology 1990;2(1):58-62
Penile melanosis is a new disease entity which is benign and different from pigmented nevus and acral lentiginous melanoma in situ. A 20-year-old man had hyperpigmented macules on the glans penis and penile shaft for 5 years. Clinical and histologic findings were consistent with penile melanosis and giant melanosome complexes were observed ultrastructurally.

We describe a case of cutaneous chylous reflux, which is thought to be a kind of primary lymphedema, in a 19-year-old male who had suffered from multiple vesiculobullae and intermittent swelling on scrotum for about 6 years. Histopathologic findings showed multiple dilated lymphatic vascular channels in papillary dermis.

A case of 39-year-old male with keratosis palmoplantaria nummularis was reported. The skin lesions were characterized by the presence of painful focal keratoses on the plantar pressure points. Biopsy of a keratotic plantar lesion revealed excessive hyperkerstosis, hypergranulosis, focal hypogranulosis, and acanthosis in the epidermis. We could observe aymptomatic relief of this patient who was treated with mixture of corticosteroid, 25% urea and 2.5% salicylic acid.

Korean Journal of Dermatology 1988;26(4):489-495
Stratum corneum was obtained from 10 healthy individuals aged 23 and 24 years, in order to observe morphological differences in a three-dimensionsl structure of stratum corneum from 3 anatomical sites, i. e., flexor surface of the forearm, abdomen, and palm. The stratum corneum obtained by the skin surface biopsy was ohserved under a scanning electron microscope(SME). The surfaces of stratum eorneum obtained by the replice, technique were observed under a stereomicrascope(SM). The results were as follows : 1) SEM observation of the posterior surfaces of the stratum corneum from the skin surface biopsies of the flexor surface of the forearm and abdomen showed divisions with folding lines which were elliptic in the forearm and squere in the abdomen. But there were no similar folding linea in the palm. Among the 3 anatomiral sites, overlapping corneocytes on the palm were most prominent. On a higher magnification, small pits and fine wrinklings in the forearm, fine wrinklings in the abdomen, and villous projections in the palm were observed respeeti vely. 2) SM observation of the stratum corneum from the negative replica of the flexor surface of the forearm, abdomen, and palm showed divisions with folding lines which were X-shape a.t the site of their crossinga in the forearm, *-shape in the abdomen, and linear shape in the palm, Among the 3 snatomical sites, tiny holes on the palm were most prominent. Follicular openings were observed on the pa1m, and abdomen,
