Syringoma of the vulva is a rare disorder and limitation of the lesions to this site appears unique. Lesions can be clinically diagnosed without difficulty, since it is characterized by multiple, bilateral, asymptomatic skin-colored papules. Vuluar syringoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of multicentric papular lesions of the vulva. The patient presented here is a 30-year-old healthy woman; lesions are multiple, biiateral, asymptomatic, angular or round, skin-colored to yellowish brown, firm papules localized on the vulvar region and showing a characteristic histologic findings.

Demodex is easily found from eyelashes and suggested as the one of the causes of some eye diseases. This study was to investigate the occurence rate, and classification of Demodex from eyelashes, and its relationship with blepharitis. The data of this study were compiled from 27 blepharitis patients and 173 patients without blepharitis (control group) who had visited St. Paul's Hospital from October 1981 to December 1981. Three eyelashes from each eyelid-total 12 lashes from a patient-were extracted under the slit lamp, located on a slide glass and fixed with polyvinyl lactophenol mounting medium. (countinued..)

The incidence of tinea capitis was the least in the middle of 1970s, and thereafter it has been msrkedly increased along with other superficial mycoses due to Microsporum cania This study was to investigate the recent clinical and mycological trends of tinea capitis among the individuals of both out-patients of dermatologic clinic and orphanage children. These study data were compiled from 47 out-patients, which consisted of 31 patients from St. Pauls Hospital from September, 1980 to August, 1981 and 16 from St. Marys Hospital and Kangnam St. Marys Hospital from February to May in 1981, and from 79 patients of the orphage located in Seoul area in May, 1981. The results were as follows: 1. M. canis was isolated from all 47 out-patients with tinea capitis(male: 21, female 26). In orphanage, from 50 patients(63.3%) among the 79 patients with tinea capitis, 46 strains(92%) of T. ferrugineum from 30 male and 16 female patients, 3(6%) of M. canis from 3 males, and 1(2%) of T. violaceurn from a female were isolated. 2. The incidence of tinea capitis by M. canis in a total 5, 340 out-patients was 0. 58% (0. 62% in male, 0.56% in female) and its monthly distribution was almoat even through the studied period. The male to female ratio was 1:1,24, being more prevalent in female. 3. The age of onset was younger in female with tinea capitis due to M. canis than in male: The median age of onaet was 5 years in female and 7 years in male. In the group below 7 years of age, the maIe to female ratio was 1:1.84 and in the group above 8 years of age, l.74: 1.4. Most lesions of tinea capitis due to M. canis from out-patients showed multiple round grey scaled patches with shrotened hairs or round erythematous scaled alopetic patches. Kerion celsi were found in 4(9%) out of 47 out-patiente. Tinea corporia was combined in 4(9%) out-patients. There were domestic animals shch as kit or dog in 7(29%) among 24 houses of the patients.

Epidermal cysts may develop on any part of the body. Most of them are thought to occur following inflammation of the epithelium of the hair follicle. These found on the palm and sole where the hair follicle is absent have been considered to developmant of following a traumatic inclusion of the epidermis into the Dermis. Because only a few cases w re known to be related to preceding trauma, the latter assumption has been questioned. Reerly, the HPV-like virions and papillomavirus genus-speciric antigen were detected in the epicrml cyst of the sole in some reports. 1 our cases of plantar epidermal cyst were studied for the presence of human papillomavirus using conventional histologic and immunohistochemical examinator Histologic examination showed three characteristic findings, that is, intracytoplasmic eosinophil odies in the cyst wall, parakeratosis within the cyst caviti, and vacuolar structures disperse the wall and cavity. In all of the cases, immunohistochernical staining was positive for papule evirus antigen. These findings suggest an etiologic as.iation between the papillomavirus infection and plantar epidermal cyst.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the lip and perioral soft tissue changes after bracket bonding. METHODS: The soft tissue changes in 45 adult patients (age greater than 18 years and less than 29 years) without severe skeletal discrepancy were evaluated using three-dimensional images acquired with a laser scanner before and after bracket bonding was performed using 4 types of labial orthodontic brackets. RESULTS: Among the statistically significant changes in distance observed for the landmarks, the biggest change was observed in forward movement. The landmarks on the lateral sides also showed significant changes. While the landmarks on the upper lip showed significant upward movement, those on the lower lip showed significant downward movement. However, the changes were smaller for the landmarks on the upper lip (average, 0.87 mm) than for the landmarks on the lower lip (average, 1.21 mm). The type of bracket used did not significantly affect the soft tissue changes. CONCLUSIONS: These findings will help predict soft tissue changes after bracket bonding for orthodontic treatment.

PURPOSE: In addition to epileptic seizures (ES), a variety of physiologic, organic and psychogenic disorders can manifest as paroxysmal behavioral events. Paroxysmal nonepileptic events (PNEs) are quite encountered in infants, young children, and adolescents. In a substantial proportion of cases, a careful history and examination will elucidate their nature. However, in other cases, it is necessary to differentiate PNEs from ES by video-electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring. We report our experiences with PNEs in a group of children and adolescents who underwent video-EEG monitoring. METHODS: From September, 2004 to June, 2006, one hundred thirty patients were monitored in the Pediatric Epilepsy Monitoring Units of Korea University Guro and Ansan hospitals. Their hospital charts were reviewed and video records of these events were analyzed. We observed all patients after video- EEG monitoring for more than 3 months. RESULTS: Typical spells occurred during monitoring in 33 patients, not associated with a seizure pattern on EEG recordings. Two patients were diagnosed as frontal lobe epilepsy on basis of typical semiology and clinical characteristics, so 31 patients were documented to have PNEs finally. The mean age of patients was 7.2+/-5.8 years. The male to female ratio was 15 (48.4%) to 16 (51.6%). Among 31 patients, fifteen patients had associated disorders such as epilepsy, developmental delay, cerebral palsy, gastric ulcer, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or depressive disorder. Somatoform disorder and factitious disorder was frequently seen in children more than 5 years old (P<0.05). Psychogenic disorder was more frequent in female (n=6) than in male (n=2) but there was no statistical significance (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that video-EEG monitoring is an important diagnostic tool in the evaluation of paroxysmal behavioral events. With correct diagnosis of the PNEs, several unnecessary treatment could be avoided.

PURPOSE: Cervical masses are frequently occurred in children. They are most often associated with nonspecific infection. However, they may be presented as congenital abnormalities. Therefore, accurate history taking, physical examination and appropriate diagnostic procedure are absolutely required for the differential diagnosis of neck mass in children. METHODS: To elucidate the clinical characteristics of cervical mass which may help for establishing a correct diagnosis, the clinical records including pathologic findings from the biopsied specimen of twenty-eight children under seventeen years of age who were hospitalized with complain of persistently palpable neck mass were completely reviewed. RESULTS: Pathologic classification of the cervical mass was as follows : 15(53.6%) thyroglossal duct cyst, 7(25.0%) branchial cleft cyst, 5(17.9%) cystic hygroma and 1(3.6%) bronchogenic cyst. Asymptomatic mass was the most common presentation(67.8%). Twenty-six (92.8%) lesions were solitary and 2(7.1%) branchial cleft cyst were multiple. All thyroglossal duct cyst presented as a solitary mass and involved the midline of the neck. Branchial cleft cysts were located around sternocleidomastoid muscle, and multiple branchial cleft cyst located bilaterally in submandibular area. CONCLUSIONS: The accurate medical history, physical examination, and additional pathologic findings are the most important for the diagnosis of congenital neck mass in children.

14 supratentorial and 6 infratentorial arachnoid cysts, diagnosed and treated at Kangnam St Mary's Hospital from 1983 to 1988, are reported. The most common presenting symptoms in children were craniomegaly, delayed development, increased ICP and neurological focal signs. Neuroradiological examination included plain skull X-ray, brain CT and metrizamide CT or isotope study. Therapeutic criteria according to the clinical and radiological findings were reviewed. The results were as follows; 1) The patient below age of 2 yrs who's brain had a potent ability of growth should be operated in any cases for reducing mass effect. 2) In sylvian lesion, Type II and III according to the classification of Galassi were well treated with C-P snunt. 3) In infratentorial lesion, all patients had hydrocephalus and the patient who had communicated with subarachnoid space in metrizamide CT were well treated with V-P shunt and who not communicated with subarachnoid space was well treated with Y-shunt. 4) We had good results by fenestration above the age of 3 yrs and by C-P shunt under the age of 2 yrs in supratentorial lesion.
