Down syndrome is the most, well known autosomal trisomy and e large number of abnormal skin features have been reported to occur in patients with Down syndromir. including syringoma. Syringomas occur with increased frequency in patients with Down syringoma, usually limited to the region around the eyes. but few cases of eruptive syringoma with Down syndrome have been reported. We reported the case of familial eruptive syringoma in a 13 years old patient with Down syndrome.

5.A Case of Pulsating Exophthalmos.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1972;13(2):95-98
A case of pulsating exophthalmos is reported in a 50 years old Korean Woman. The complaints of this case were exophthalmos, chemosis on Rt. eye and intracranial bruit. The etiology of this case is considered due to toxemia of pregnancy and hypertension without trauma. A brief review of the literatures related with the etiology, symptom and therapy is made.

Livedo vasculitis clinically shows purpuric papules and recurrent ulcers in the lower extremities, mainly on the ankles, leaving characteristic scars called atrophie blanche after the healing of the ulcers. Its characteristic histopathologic features and clinical evolution indicate that the common pathologic event is occlusion of vessels in the middle and deep dermis. In Korean literature, seven cases of this disease have been reported but the response of the treatment was not, satisfactory. We report three cases of livedo vasculitis cleared by combined ther by of acetylsalicylic acid, dipyridamole and nifedipine, which has not been reported in Korean literatur.

7.Determination of Serum Pre-beta-Lipoprotein in Normal Individual by Electrophoresis on Cellulose Acetate Membrane.
Korean Circulation Journal 1972;2(2):47-52
Experimental, epidemiological and clinical studies indicate and important relationship between abnormalities in serum lipoproteins and atherosclerosis. With the introduction in 1965 by Fredrickson and Lees of a system for phenotyping hyperlipoproteinemias, quantitation of pre-and beta-lipoproteins gained much significance, and hence, the development of simple method for studying serum lipids and lipoproteins is needed. In the past, several methods have been proposed for the estimation of serum lipoproteins by electrophoresis. Authors observed serum total lipoprotein, beta-lipoprotein, pre-beta-lipoprotein and alpha-lipoprotein fractions in 80 (male:40, female;40)normal individuals with electrophoesis using cellulose acetate membrane instead of filter paper and concluded as follow: 1) Total lipoprotein and beta-lipoprotein levels had increasing tendency according to aging on both sexes. 2) Serum pre-beta-lipoprotein level also had increasing tendency according to age on both sexes and these features are more conspicious after fifth decade. 3) Electrophoresis using cellulose acetate membrance seem to be convinient method for analysis of serum lipoproteins especially pre-beta-lipoprotein fraction. 4) This method can be likely applied as routine screening test of hyperlipemia.

Hydroa Vacciniforme is a rare, chronic, photosensitivity disorder witli onset in childhood that is characterized by recurrent, discrete vesiculation, necrosis and vacciniform scarring limited to sun exposed skin. We report a case of hydroa vacciniforme associated with ocular inwlvment in which vesicles could be induced only with single MED exposure to UVA.

9.The management of hypertension by internists and family physicians in general hospital.
Journal of the Korean Academy of Family Medicine 1997;18(8):793-801
BACKGROUND: This study was performed to determine and compare the practice patterns of management of hypertension of the internists and family physicians in general hospitals and to compare them according to the JNC V guidelines. METHODS: Questionnaires were mailed to total 964 of internists and family physicians in general hospitals during May, 1996. 217 of them were returned with the response rate of 23.5%. Chi-square test and Fishers exact test were performed to examine the statistical difference between two groups. RESULTS: The mean age of the respondents was 39.1 and 77.9% of them were male. 65.4 % of hospitals for respondents were located in metropolitan cities. Concerning the number of measurements of blood pressure, 0.5% of the respondents measured just once before confirmation of the diagnosis. Items for physical examinations for initial evaluation were as follows; cardiac auscultation(94.0%), measurements of body weight and height(58.9%), abdominal examination(52.8%), auscultation for carotid bruit(41.7%), fundoscopic examination (25.6%). Regarding the laboratory tests, the frequency of evaluation of all item were higher than that of the physical examinations. For initial drug therapy, calcium channel blockers and ACE inhibitors were the most frequently chosen mediations. No difference was found between two specialties or tertiary and secondary hospitals in this trend. With educations for the life-style modification, 60-80% of the respondents educated the patients. No difference was found between two specialties except one item. CONCLUSIONS: As a whole the JNC V guidelines were not followed faithfully for the management of hypertension.

10.Alterations of Cerebral Blood Flow and Cerebrovascular Reserve in Patients with Chronic Traumatic Brain Injury Accompanying Deteriorated Intelligence.
Korean Journal of Nuclear Medicine 2000;34(3):183-198
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate alterations of regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebrovascular reserve (CVR), and correlation between these alternations and cognitive dysfunction in patients with chronic traumatic brain injury (TRI) and normal brain MRI findings. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty TBI patients and 19 healthy volunteers underwen1 rest/acerazolamide brain SPECT using Tc-99m HMPAO. Korean-Wechsler Adult Intelligence scale test was also performed in the patient group. Statistical analysis was performed with statistical parametric mapping software (SPM97), RESULTS: CBF was diminished in the left hemisphere including Wernicke's area in all patients with lower verbal scale scores. In addition, a reduction in CBF in the right frontal, temporal and parietal cortices was related with depressed scores in information, digital span, arithmetic and similarities, In patients with lower performance scale scores. CBF was mainly diminished in the right hemisphere including superior temporal and supramarginal gyri, premotor, primary somatomotor and a port of prefrontal cortices, left frontal lobe and supramarginal gyrus. CVR was diminished in sixty-four Brodmann's areas compared to control. A reduction in CVR was demonstrated bilaterally in the frontal and temporal Iobes in patients with lower scores in both verbal and performance tests, and in addition, both inferior parietal and occipital lobes in information subset. CONCLUSION: Alterations of CBF and CVR were demonstrated in the symptomatic TBI patients with normal MRI finding. These alterations were correlated with the change of intelligence, of which the complex functions are subserved by multiple interconnected cortical structures.
