Romberg syndrome is a rare disease and characterized by unilaeril atrophy of the skin, subcutaneous tissue and the underlying structure of half the face. The lesion does not usually cross the midline of the scalp. Roriberg syndrome is sometimes mildsnosed as linear scleroderma, although they differ widely in their clinical and histological apperance. A 13-year-old boy was present with a one year history of idefined atrophic patch on the left side of face and neck. We involved skin was not bound down to the underlying structure. The history revealed no prcvious trauma or disease, He had no abnormal neurologic finding. Computerized tomography demonstrated a diminished subcutaneouat volume and also decreased thickness of back muscle is the left side face from cheek to neck.

The potential for sebaceous nevi to evolve into secondary benign or malignant EuIror is well recognized. In general, malignant transformation does not occur until postpubertal life. We experienced a case of basal cell epithelioma arising in a nevus sebaceous on a 12-year-old boy´s parietal scalp. We recommended that surgical excision should be undertaken as early as possible to detect the malignant transformation of nevus sebaceous.

Background: It is well known that the addition of CO2 gas during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) can increase cerebral blood flow (CBF). In this study, we tried to find whether the increase of CBF by CO2 gas could be expressed on the measurement of body temperatures. Methods: This study included 22 adult patients who underwent CPB with moderate hypothermia and were assigned randomly to two groups by adding CO2 gas (CO2 group and Air group). We measured each tympanic (TM), nasopharyngeal (NP), oral, forehead, finger, rectal and CPB arterial line temperatures of CPB circuit for 20 times during cooling in every one minute for 20 minutes and during rewarming every two minutes for 40 minutes. Results: During cooling and rewarming, the TM, NP and oral temperatures changed more rapidly than the rectal and finger temperatures. In TM temperature, as time changed, the percent changes of temperature varied more prominently in the CO2 gas group than in the Air group. The statistical differences were significant especially during 13 minutes to 20 minutes in cooling and 8 minutes to 20 minutes during rewarming. Conclusion: From this data, we can postulate the effect of CO2 gas on CBF indirectly by measuring several sites of body temperatures.

BACKGROUND: Chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus(CCLE) is a well-known disease entity. But there has been no data about its clinical behavior and histopathologic features in Korea. OBJECTIVES: This study was conducted to elucidate the clinical, laboratory, and histopathologic features of CCLE, and the relationship between CCLE and SLE. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We investigated 48 cases of CCLE that visited the department of dermatology at the Seoul National University Hospital from January 1990 to June 1997. Medical records and biopsy slides were reviewed.
