Pallister-Killian syndrome (PKS) is a rare multisystem disorder characterized by isochromosome 12p and tissue-limited mosaic tetrasomy 12p. In this study, we diagnosed three pediatric patients who were suspicious of having PKS using array-based comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) and FISH analyses performed on peripheral lymphocytes. Patients 1 and 2 presented with craniofacial dysmorphic features, hypotonia, and a developmental delay. Array CGH revealed two to three copies of 12p in patient 1 and three copies in patient 2. FISH analysis showed trisomy or tetrasomy 12p. Patient 3, who had clinical features comparable to those of patients 1 and 2, was diagnosed by using FISH analysis alone. Here, we report three patients with mosaic tetrasomy 12p. There have been only reported cases diagnosed by chromosome analysis and FISH analysis on skin fibroblast or amniotic fluid. To our knowledge, patient 1 was the first case diagnosed by using array CGH performed on peripheral lymphocytes in Korea.

We report a case of congenital candidiasis confined to the rail plates in a 57-day-old girl whose infected nails exhibited the rough, yellow-white, thickened, opaque distal ends and pink-colored, normal healthy plates at their proximal bases. Numerous pseudohyphae and spores were demonstrated by KOH microscopic examination. Candida albicans was identified by culture on Sabourauds glucose agar and API 20C Aux system. Histopathologic findings of nail crippings also showed mutiple hyphae beneath the hyperkeratot,ic nail plate on PAS stain. Shedding of the infected distal portion of the ungual plates ws caused by growing out of the healthy nails, resulting in spontaneous healing of the disease rithin 2 months.

A statistical study of soldiers who visited the outpatient ciepartment of the Capital Armed Forces General Fiospital from 1987 to 1989 was performed. The results were as follows : 1. The total number of outpatients was 9969 with peak clinic visits in June(11.2%) and the lowest number of clinic visits in February(6.4% ). 2. The most frequent age was 22 years(20.7% ). Soldiers between 19 and 24 years old comprised 68.1% of total patients. 3. By rank 69.3% of the outpatients were private', 16.0% sergeant and 14,4% officers. 4. The most common dermatoses were dermatophytosis, contact dermatitis, scabies, acne, seborrheic dermatosis, urticaria, alopecia, condyloma acuminatum, verruca, folliculitis, psoriasis, insect bite reactions, pityriasis rosea, herpes zoster and corns. 5. Frequent diseases, which occured during summer season, included dermatophytosis, contact dermatitis and inser,t bites. The incidence of scabies, pityriasis prsea was increased during winter and that of psoriasis was increased during spring.
