BACKGROUND: The skin prick test and in vitro allergen-specific IgE assays are commonly used to diagnose atopic diseases. However, there is still a need for comparison of their diagnostic efficiency. Objective and METHOD: To evaluate their clinical efficiency, the results of UniCAP and multiple antigen simultaneous test (MAST) were compared with skin prick test results. After 51 allergic patients completed skin prick test (SPT), serum sample was collected and UniCAP and MAST were performed to determine specific IgE to house dust mite (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus : Dp and D. farinae. Df). Result : When SPT was used as a reference standard, UniCAP depicted higher sensitivity of 88.8% to Dp IgE and 91.4% to Df - IgE, but lower specificity of 73.3% to Dp IgE and 75.0% to Df - IgE. However, MAST had lower sensitivity of 75.1% to Dp-IgE and 71.4% to Df - IgE, higher specificity of 93.3% to Dp-IgE and 93.7% to Df - IgE. The values of UniCAP and MAST were significantly correlated with the reactivity grade of skin prick test, respectively. Additionally, the response of SPT was not apparently associated with ECP levels. CONCLUSION: These study results may suggest that both UniCAP and MAST are generally feasible for measuring house dust mite - specific IgE and that they are both replicable.

Proliferating trichilemmal tumor is a relatively uncommon tumor which develops preferentially as a solitary tumor on the scalp of elderly women. Histologically, the tumor i epresents a proliferation of the outer root sheath epithelium in a characteristic pattern, but the presense of cellular atypia, dyskera.totic cells and mitotic figures may lead to a false impression of squamous cell carcinoma. We report a case of proliferating trichliemmal tumor in a 70-yeiir-old male who presented with a slowly growing tumor on his right inguinal area for 2 years. This case is unusual in that the tumor occurred on the inguinal are anoher than the scalp in a male.

Fewer than one half of patients with acute myocardial infarction is a candidate for thrombolytic therapy. Current data revealed that primary coronary stenting may be useful alternative to intravenous thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction in these subset of patients. We experienced a patient presenting with acute myocardial infarction and acute promyelocytic leukemia in whom thrombolytic therapy was thought be not eligible due to hemorrhagic tendency. Primary coronary stenting was performed successfully without complications. Follow-up angiography revealed no evidence of restenosis or stent occlusion.

Benign neonatal eruptive hemangiomatosis is extremely rare congenital multiple hemangiomatic disease without systemic visceral involvement. The akin lesions are usually detected at birth and virtually disappear by the age of 12 months. A female infant of 27 days had three or four flat reddish purple maculopapules on the face from the time of birth. They spreaded into the entire body surface and increased in size forming plaque upto little finger tip size for 3 days. There was no evidence of asociated symptomatic visceral involvement. Histologically they were compatible with capillary angiomatous nevi. They began to resolve into residual hyperpigmented macules necrotizing centrally at 2 months of age and almo. completely resolved at 6 months of age without any treatment.

Epidermal growth factor(KGF) and transforming growth factor arpha(TGF-a) are polypeptides of 53 amd 50 amino acid residuies. Both bind to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGR-R) leading to phosphorylation of the receptor, enhancement of its tyrosine-specific kinase activity and ultimately to stimulation of cell growth. To study he role of EGF, TGF-a, and EGF-R in differentiation and hyperproliferation of cell, we se lected psoriasis vulgaris, because the affected keratinocyte may house both an abnormally increased proliferative capacity and an abnormally differentiated state. The biopsy specimens were taken from involved and uninvolved skin of 20 patients with psoriasis and immunoperoxidase studies with formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues were performed with EGF, TGF-a and EGF-R useing the Vectastain ABC irnmunoperoxidase stain system. The antibodies were used at a concentration of 6 ug/ml In involved psoriatic skin, distributions of TGF-a and EGF-R were increased in all layers of epidermis as compared to normal, uninvolved psoriatic skin, in which chev were showed to the basal and parabasal layers. However, distribution of EGF was weekly positive in the basal layers of epidermis in both involved and uninvolved skin with no difference between toem. These results suggest that increased distribution of TGF-a and EGF-R may be involved in hypoproliferative state of epidermal keratinocytes in psoriatic lesion.

Aeromonas hydrophila is a motile gram negative rod which exists in soil and water. It can cause septicemia in persons with severe immune deficiency. Occasionally it is one of the etiologic agents of the gangrenous skin disease similar to the gangrene caused by Vibrio vulnificus septicemia. A 42-year-old farmer had been suffering from liver cirrhosis for about 3 years. He had episodes of melena and hematernesis for 2 days prior to coming to the emergency room but had no skin lesions. On the 2nd hospital day, painful, erythematous and edematous skin lesions developed on his left arm and on the 3rd hospital day, several purpuras and hemorrhagic bullae developed on his left arm and leg. In the tissue, blood and blister fluid, numerous gram negative rods were identified by direct smear and culture. The bacterial identification studies from blood and blister fluid revealed A. hydrephda.

Twenty five patients (twenty seven hips) who had Chiari osteotomy at Kang Nam St. Marys Hospital between 1980 and 1995 were reviewed to evaluate the factors in the operative technique that contribute to successful outcome and assess the clinical results in various conditions. The length of follow-up ranged from one to fourteen years and the age of at operation ranged from four to twentythree years. Eighteen patients had developmental dysplasia of the hip: four, septic hip: three had another disorders, Prior to the Chiari osteotomy, fourteen hips had an femoral osteotomy and four, trochanteric arthroplasty. We used to the standard osteotomy as described by Chiari with certain modification. A pneumatic saw and osteotome are used instead of Gigli saw. This technique is simple procedure to make the correct level and angle. Bone graft was not performed in all cases even the osteotomy was displaced more than 50 percent of the iliac width. The overall results were 12 excellent, eight good, five fair, and two poor. In eleven patients, the osteotomy had to be displaced more than 50 percent to provide good coverage of the femoral head. Their results were good or excellent. A good result will be obtained if enough attention is paid to displacing the osteotomy. The osteotomy using the pneumatic saw provides accurate level and direction of osteotomy and it is an simple procedure also.
