We investigated on how the nature of vehicles influenced on the efficacy of mo isturizer s, cutaneous hydrat,ion, physical property and roughness. Hydration was measured with corneometer, physical property with fermometer, and mughness with image analyser. Used vehicles were as follows : hydrous gel, vater in oil(W/0) emulsion, oil in water(0/W) emulsion. I.Jsed moisturizers were as follows . glycerine, polypeptide and sodium lactat,e, hyaluronic acid-triethanolamine, sodium lactate, pvopylene glycol, The results are summarized as follows : 1. The increment of the hydration effect according to vehicles was in this order. C/ W emulsion, W/0 emulsion, hydrous gel(After 2 hours). 2. The increment of extensibility as physical property was correlated to the in crcment, of hydration effcet(r=0.924). 3. It was shown that, the roughness was decreased after treatment of all mo isturizers except propylene glycol but, there was not significant st.atistically and alsa was no meaningful difference among the vehicles. 4. Among t,he moisturizers, glycerine was superior to other moisturizers on the hydration effect and extensihility. We conclude that 0/W emulsion was suitable vehicle on cutaneous hydration effect and hydration effect is proportion to the increment of flexibility.

A 34-year-old Korean man presented with a 3 week history of a yellowish eczema like patch on the left thigh. Sixteen months prior, he was diagnosed with polymorphie r eticulosis of the left nasal cavity. The patient, refuse<3 conventional radiation therapy and took herbal medication and diet therapy instead. Biopsy of the nasal cavity, hard palate and left thigh lesians showed extensive necrosis and polymorphic infiltrates of atypical lymphocytes with angiodestructive invasion. Irnmunohistochemical study of left thiyh lesion showed strong CD2 positivity con sistent with the diagnosis of peripheral T cell lymphorra.

Most of malignant melanoma of skin had occurred in transformation from benign nevi(Webster, 1944), especially most frequently from junctional nevi of them. which was characterized by flat surface, dark-brown color and hairlessness(Ackermen, 1948) Blumberg (1972) introduced five levels of hietologic invasion of malignant melanoma described by Clark et al. Morton(1970) reported various measures of treatment such as surgery combined with radiotherapy or with chemotherapy or with recent immunotherapy with good result. The authors recently experienced 24-yeas old male soldier patient with malignant melanoma on hypothenar region of right palm. The pathologic investigation including electronmicroscopical aspect was carried out and are presented. Treatment consisted of the resections of right axillary lymph nodes and the lesion in situ on the hypotherar region of right hand, pedicle skin graft to right hand from abdomen, and immediate postoperative immunotherapy with intradermal injection of 1.0 cc. of B.C.G. daily on extensor surface of both thighs in turn, which lasted for about 3 months duration to find good result.
