The infantile cortical hyperostosis is relatively rare unknown cause disease. After the first report of a case of this was that of caffey in 1945, this disease is increasing in frequency. This disease characterized by subperiosteal new bone formation on various bone, leukocytosis, increased Erythrocyte Seidmentation Rate, fever. We experienced two cases of this and reported them in this paper with a brief review of tbe literature.

We observed the clinical and histopathologic characteristics of acquired, bilateral nevus of Ota-like macules in each 80 and 23 patients. The results were as follows: 1. All patients were female and the peak age of onset was third decade with an a,verage age of 27.4 years. 2. The colors of lesions were slate, brown, dark brown, and blue black in order of freguency. 3. The lesions were most comrnonly observed in the malar area and alae nasi. 4. Three patients had family history of acquired, bilateral nevus of Ota-like :macules. 5. Histopathologically pigment-bearing cells, bipolar or irregular in shape, were found mostly in the upper- and mid-portion of the dermis. The melanocytes showed weakly positive dopa reaction. 6. In electron microscopic observation, these pigrnent-bearing cells contained many singly dispersed melanosomes in stage 3 and 4 of melanization and wece surrounded by an extracellular sheath.

Friction melanosis is frequently developed in thin, young woman, on thc covered skin of spinc, rib, elbow, knee and tibia. These lesions range from brown to rcddish-brown in color, appear in either band shapes or reticular patterns, and exhibit no overt syrnptoms. They do not show any inflamatory changes, and the skin remains smooth. According to histopathological findings, the main changcs arc perivascular melanophages on the papillary derrnis and upper dermis, and also increased melanin granules on the basal layer. The following case concern a relatively thin 20-year-o1d female patient. She had a syrwptoniless brown color changcs above the ribs of back, growing in dircction of the ribs for a period of three years. This change was band shaped, but there were no signs of inflammatory reaction, leaving the skin smooth. A biopsy was performed on the relevant tissue, and clinical-histopathological analysis was resulting in diagnosis of friction melanosis.

She describe herein two cases of eccrine spiradenoma. One is an indolent and the other is painful or tender multiple small nodules distributed in a zosteriform pattern. Histopathologically, the encapsulated lobules of the tumor are composed of two types of cells, intensely staining cells and pale staining cells, usually arranged in whorls, cords, and pseudoglands. In the second case, enzyme histochemical staining and electron microscopic examination have been done and are compared with other cases in the literature.
5.A Case of Multiple Trichoepithelioma.

A 33-year-old man had multiple, dome shaped, pin-head sized, hard papules on the center of face and pigeon's egg sized hard tumors on the left upper arm and the trunk. The histopathological findings of the skin biopsy specimens from face and left upper arm showed tumor islands composed of basophilic cells of the same sppearance as basalioma cells, arranged in a lacelike and solid aggregates, without horn cysts.

We report a case of kerion celsi caused by Trichophyton verrucosum in a 4-year-old male. He presented painful, tender, indurated, boggy masses discharing pus on the vertex and occiput. Kerion celsi caued by T. verrucosum was diagnosed by the characteristic gross and microscopic findings of the colony on the Sabourauds glucose. agar. The possible source of infection was searched and wq found that he raised the cattles in his house. They had multiple, scaly, whitish plaques on the skin and T. verrucosum was identified from the hairs of the lesions. He had been treated with griseofulvin and prednisolone, and all lesions were cleared leaving partial alopecia in 2 months.

Complications after surgical treatment of trochanteric fracture such as varus deformity or delayed union are frequent and there are many difficulties to maintain the stability of fragments because of the cortical deficit or comminution on medial aspect of the neck and posterior trochanteric fragment. Evans, Dimon, Sarmiento and others suggested several methods of internal fixation, furthermore it is attempted recently to reduce the fragments anatomically with sliding compression hip screw and plate. 31 cases of interal fixation on trochanteric fracture were carried out from March, 1972 to February 1979 at the Orthopaedic Department of Seoul Adventist Hospital and their comparable results were as follows. 1. Acceptable placement of metals was noted 2 cases of 6 cases in Smith-Petersen nail with Thornton plate fixation, 2 cases out of 8 cases in Smith-Petersen nail with McLaughlin plate fixation and 9 cases out of 14 cases in sliding compression hip screw and plate fixation. 2. Complications after internal fixation such as varus deformity and delayed union were noted 1 case out of 3 cases in multiple pinning, 3 cases out of 6 cases in Smith-Petersen nail with Thornton plate fixation, 4 cases out of 8 cases in Smith-Petersen nail with McLaughlin plate fixation, 4 cases out of 14 cases in sliding compression hip screw and plate fixation. 3. Required weeks in union were 18 weeks in Multiple pinning, 20 weeks in Smith-Petersen nail with Thornton plate fixation, 25 weeks in Smith-Petersen nail with McLaughlin plate fixation and 16 weeks in sliding compression hip screw and plate fixation. 4. There are few complications in treatment of trochanteric fracture with surgical procedure using Sliding compression hip screw and plate.

Brodie's abscess is a primary subacute pyogenic osteomyelitis that has a thin wall of fibrous tissue and sclerotic bone. The authors have encountered a case of a Brodie's abscess that was developed in the same place of both tibia at the same time and treated the case with surgery and continuous closed irrigation.

We have experienced automated and computerized perimetry using a Humphrey Field Analyzer in our Glaucoma Services. To evaluate its clinical efficacy, we report the results of the Armaly central field screening test in comparison with those of central 30-2 threshold test of the Humphrey Field Analyzer. One hundred fortythree eyes of 83 cases of normotensives, ocular hypertensives and glaucoma patients with open-angle or narrow-angle were enrolled in this study. Fiftyfour out of 61 patients (88.5%) and 73 out of 81 eyes (90.1 %) with visual field defect were detected by the screening test of the Humphrey Field Analyzer. Eight out of 81 eyes (9.9%) with visual field defect detected by the screening test were confirmed as false positive. All points of false positive were solitary, which tended to occur more frequently on superior vusual field. False negative of 8 eyes (12.9%) detected by the screening test were confirmed by the threshold test. The point of false negative was more frequent on superior field and showed to locate more peripherally from the fixation point. There was no significant difference in either central sensitivity or age of the false ring.

Six patients with exfoliation syndrome were seen in our glaucoma clinic. Four patients presented unilateral ocular involvement and the other 2 patients were bilaterally involved. Eight eyes had exfoliation material on the anterior surface of the lens and pupillary border, and 7 eyes exhibited it on the anterior chamber angle. Sampaolesi`s line was detected in 4 eyes. Five patients (6 eyes) of 6 patients (8 eyes) with exfoliation exhbited an elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) exceeding 21 mmHg. Among them, 3 patients (3 eyes) had an extremely high maximum IOP over 47 mmHg, and 2 patients (3 eyes) had a slightly elevated IOP less than 26 mmHg during the follow-up period. Argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT) was performed twice on each unilateral eye of the 2 patients on whom the inital trabeculectomy failed. However, longterm IOP control after laser treatment was not obtained in either case, which might be due to the extremely high prelaser lOP level, in exoess of 40 mmHg.
