Lymphomatoid papulosis is a chronic disease of cutaneous atypical lymphoid infiltration characterized clinically by involuting and recurring papules, plaques, and sometimes nodules. A 51-year-old man presented with a single, coin sized, nontender, erythematous nodule on the left thigh of a 2-week duration. There was a history of recurrence and spontaneous healing of similar asymptomatic eruptions five to six times over 20 years. A biopsy specimen showed a dense, wedge-shaped dermal infiltrate that was patchy and perivascular. The cellular infiltrate was polymorphous and consisted of large atypical cells, small lymphocytes, eosinophils and neutrophils. The large atypical cells were strongly CD30(Ki-1) positive. We report a case of lymphomatoid papulosis unusually presenting as a single nodular eruption, in which the differential diagnosis between lymphomatoid papulosis and CD30(Ki-1)positive large cell lymphoma is exceedingly difficult.

2.A Clinical Observation on l0 Cases of Anatrophic Nephrolithotomy.
Korean Journal of Urology 1987;28(6):808-814
The surgical intervention of renal staghorn calculi was performed in 9 patients(lOkidneys) who had undergone anatrophic nephrolithotomy with in situ hypothermia. admitted to the Department of Urology, HaniI Hospital, during four years periods from June, 1982 to May, 1986. This operation technique is simple, easy but uneventful recoveries followed only in a small group. The results were summarized as followings : l. Postoperative hospitalizations were 13.1 days(ranged from 8 to 21). 2. Operating time required 194.5 minutes with mean time(ranged from 150 to 230). 3. Renal artery clamping time required 36.4 minutes with mean time(ranged from 23 to 65). 4. Blood loss during operation was 875ml on the average loss(ranged from 350 to l400). 5. Postoperative complications were nephrectomy l case, pneumothorax l case, deep vein thrombosis l cases remained stone 3 cases.

Muchz-Habermann disease is cutaneous disease of unknown etilogy and characterized by a, polymorphous eruption consisting of papulosquamous, bemorrhagic, ulceronecrotic lesion eventually into varioliform scars. It is also classified into parapsoriasis group according to Broq with parapsoriasis en guttata (pityriasis lichenoides chronica), parapsoriasis en plaques, parapsoriasis en lichenoides. The 61-year-old male patient visited to Dermatologic Department of Severance Hospital due to sudden onset of generalized eruption. He presented pea to fingr tip sized erythematous, silvery maculo-papulo-squamous eruptions on trunk, extre- mities and buttock, but didnt complain of any subjective symptoms except markel fatigue. Skin biopsy was done on right forearm and was confirrr.ed to pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta by histopathologic finding. The lesion was completely controlled by oral tetracycline 2. Ogm per daily for first 4 wecks and reduced dosage l. Ogin per day for second 2 weeks.

To determine the most effective and tolerable method of preparation with Golytely for colonoscopy, 141 consecutive cases were randomly allocated to drink either 2,000cc(74 cases, Group I) or 4,000cc(67 cases, Group 2), with infusion rate of 1,000cc/h. The reaults were as follows. 1) The rates of effective colonic clearance in group 1 and group 2 was 94.6% and 94.0%, respectively. There is no significance difference between two groups. 2) There was no significant difference in the ingested volume until the first bowel movement and the time required for rectal efflunt to be clear between two groups. 3) Patient acceptance was higher in group 1 than in group 2. 4) Side effects were less noticed in group 1 than group 2, and incraased in body weight (average 0.8 kg) after ingestion of Golytely was observed only in group 2.

Non-operative palliative treatment for malignant colonic obstruction can sometimes be accomplished by the insertion of anorectal tube, endoscopic balloon dilation or endoscopic laser therapy. But these methods have some disadvantages, such as limitaation of activity, need of repetitive treatment and high-risk of perforation. Endoscopic prosthesis is generally accepted as a safe, effective palliative treatment for malignant esophageal stricture, because this method has no above disadvantages. Neverthless, there is only a few experence with endoecopic prosthesis in malignant colorectal stricture over the world. We report two cases which were safely, effectively performed endoscopic prosthesis in palliative treatment for their malignant rectal strictures.

Gastric lipomas are rare benign submucosal tumors which can present the diagnostic and therapeutic problems. The preferred treattment is observation or local excision. Since preoperative diagnosis and differentation from malignant tumors can be difficult by use of the conventional diagnostic modalities such as X-ray or endoscopic examination, patients are sometimes subjected to more extensive surgical procedures than warranted. As to the diagnosis of submucosal tumors of the upper digestive tract, a newly developed diagnostic modality of endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS) allows us to visuialize the structures underlying the gastrointestinal wall in a noninvasive maneuver, and can contribute to make differential diagnosis and decision of management. Strip biopsy is an endascopic tissue resection technique which permits resection of both mucosal and submucosal tissue regardless of the morphological type of the lesion, because the submucosal saline injections during the procedures make the flat or depressed lesions to be elevated. Now, we report a 56-yr-old female which had a Yamada type I polypoid gastric submucosal lipoma in the antrum, which could be performed the different diagnosis and successful endoscopic removal by endoscopic ultrasonography and strip biopsy.

A new method for combining ultrasonography snd endoscopy, endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), was developed to improve the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound by direct image of the target lesion via the gastrointestinal lumen. EUS has the unique ability to provide clear sonographic images of the wall structure of the stomach. This capability can be ultilized in assessing the depth of cancer invasion of the stomach by identifying which layer the ultrasonographic change extends to. However, the depressed types of early gastric cancer(EGC) are often accompanied by ulcerative change in the tumor foci. And the ultrasonographic picture is also influenced by the ulcerative change.

8.Evaluation of the Safety, Successfullness and Effectiveness of Endoscopic Nasobiliary Drainage (ENBD) without Endoscopic Sphicterotomy (EST).

Endoscopic nasobiliary drainage(ENBD) has been developed as a safe and effective noninvasive biliary drainage method for initial decompression in the benign or malignant biliary obstruction, dissolution of biliary stones by injection of litholytic agents through the tube, and proper causative diagnosis of biliary obstruction by cytologic, bacteriologic and parasite investigation of drained bile. Generally, endoscopic sphicterotomy (EST) is performed before the insertion of an ENBD tube in order to make the procedure easy and to prevent acute pancreatitis that may develop by compression of the pancreatic orifice of the inserted tube. Nevertheless, in some cases EST is difficult to perform or should not be performed due to their coagulopathy. In such cases, ENBD without EST may be necessary. To evaluate the safety, successfullness and effectiveness of ENBD without EST, ENBD without EST using 5, 6 or 7 Fr pigtail tubes were performed in 81 cases(49 malignant, 32 benign). ENBD without EST was successfully performed in 78 out of 81 cases(96.3%). This effectiveness for decompression of bile duct, evaluated by decreasing total bilirubin values, was good in 66 out of 73 casee (90. 2%). The complications of this procedure were noted in 6 out of 78 cases(7. 7%). e. g. cholangitis in 3, migration of ENBD tube in 2, acute pancreatitis in 1 case. Particularly, regardless of our concern that ENBD without EST may develop acute pancreatitis acute panereatitis was noted in only one case. In conclusion, ENBD without EST is a safe and effective method which can be applied to the cases who have benign or malignant obstructive jaundice.
