A 38-year-old man, with recurrent oral ulcers for 10 years, was admitted because of recent aggravation of odynophagia and sore throat. About 4 years earlier, he had been performed abdominal surgery for intestinal perforation. Gastrofiberscopic examination showed small round ulcers at hypiopharynx and 6cm sized longitudinal linear ulcer at mid esophagus. Biopsy specimens at mid-esophagus showed chronic inflammation. Besides oral ulcer, he had perianal ulcers and skin rashes. He was managed with steroid, colchicine and sulfasalazine under the diagnosis of esophageal involvement in Behcet's disease. After 3 months from discharge, esophagogram and gastrofiberscopic examination showed some improved appearance, but symptoms recurred for steroid tapering. He has been followed in much improved status for 8 months after discharge.

Microcystic meningioma, a distinct morphological variant of meningiomas, is histologically characterized by a vacuolated appearance with multiple cystic spaces lined by vacuolated or stellate-shaped tumor cells. We report a case of microcystic meningioma occuring in right frontoparietal area of 42-year-old woman, with emphasis on differential diagnosis, along with a review of literatures. Immunohistochemically, most of the tumor cells demonstrated positive immunoreactivity for both epithelial membrane antigen and vimentin. Electron microscopy showed that the extracellular space was extensive, where eletron-lucent material was occasionally seen. The tumor cells had long cytoplasmic processes showing complex interdigitation and a large number of desmosomes.

OBJECTIVES: Patients with schizophrenia often present idea of reference in social situations, but there has been a limitation in quantitatively measuring their reactions to the social stimuli. The aim of this study was to investigate behavioral characteristics of patients with schizophrenia in social situations in which idea of reference can be provoked. METHODS: Forty subjects with schizophrenia (21 males) and 26 healthy volunteers (17 males) performed the idea-of-reference-provoking task, which was composed of movie clips with scenes of two women sitting on a bench of 1 or 5 m away. The conditions consisted of "referential conversation", "non-referential conversation" or "no conversation". The reactions of the participants were rated by the questionnaires for self-referential perception, malevolent interpretation and anxiety reaction. RESULTS: There were significant group differences in the reactions on self-referential perception, malevolent interpretation and anxiety reaction. After the treatment, patients with schizophrenia showed improved scores of the reactions. In particular, score changes of malevolent interpretation and anxiety reaction in patients with schizophrenia were correlated with change of paranoia scale (rs=0.65, p<0.05 and rs =0.73, p<0.05, respectively). CONCLUSION: Patients with schizophrenia revealed self-referential bias and paranoid responses to social situations, which were improved after psychiatric treatment. Self-referential perceptions and paranoid responses may be state dependent rather than trait of schizophrenia.

Adenocarcionma of fetal type is in lung is a newly recognized malignant tumor sharing morphologic features with the epithelial component of the pulmonary blastoma devoid of sarcomatous component. We present a case of adenocarcinoma of fetal type in a 28-year-old female, consisting of numerous branching tubules or glands and morula-like epithelial complexes. Histologically, the tubules and glands were composed of glycogne-rich nonciliated epithelial cells showing in part argyrophilia. Some of tubular and morula-like epithelial cells revealed immunoreactivity for neuron-specific enolase. We report this case with a review of literatures with special references on the histogenisis. This report is the pathologically confirmed second case of the pulmonary adenocarcinoma of fetal type in Korea, following the report of Cho and Lee, 1990.

The authors report a case of uterine tumor resembling ovarian sex-cord tumor in a 31-year-old woman with emphasis on immunohistochemistry. Histologically this case showed identical features to a well-recognized endometial stromal tumor except for focal epithelial-like differentiation that resembled sex-cord tumors of the ovary. The sex-cord like differentiation of tumor cells were manifested by trabeculae, plexiform cords, and gland-like pattern. We diagnosed this case, according to the features described by Clement and Scully(1976), as uterine tumor resembling ovarian sex-cord tumor, group I. Although the histogenesis of this tumor is unclarified, most authors believe that this tumor may be originated from multipotent mesenchymal cells of the uterus. On immunohistochemical stains, Desmin was uniformly reactive in epithelial-like cells and in focal areas of endometrial stromal sarcoma-like component. Vimentin was partly reactive in all tumor components, however EMA was non-reactive.

INTRODUCTION: Urinary retention (UR) is one most common complication of anal surgery and its cause is multifactorial. Postdural puncture headache (PDPH) is caused by cerebrospinal fluid leakage after spinal anesthesia, therefore it may be aggravated by early ambulation. PURPOSE: To determine whether early ambulation (EA) vs. bed rest (BR) reduces the incidence of UR after anal surgery under spinal anesthesia, without causing PDPH. METHODS: In this prospective, randomized study, 107 patients undergoing anal surgery under spinal anesthesia were randomly assigned in the EA group (n=54) or the BR group (n=53). UR was defined as a voiding difficulty that needs catheterization. In the BR group, the patients were positioned flat in bed on the operation day. Anesthetic techniques (tetracaine injection using 24-gauge needle in sitting position, bupivacaine local infiltration) and postoperative pain therapy (intramuscular demerol injection every 6 hours, oral nonsteriodal antiinflammatory drug plus acetaminophen) were standardized. Perioperative intravenous fluids were restricted. RESULTS: Urinary retention and PDPH occurred in 32 (29.9%) and 7 (6.5%) patients, respectively. UR was significantly reduced in the EA group (10/54=18.5%) vs. the BR group (22/53=41.5%) (p=0.017, Chi-square). The incidence of PDPH, however, was not different between the two groups (5.6% in the EA vs. 7.5% in the BR group). CONCLUSIONS: Early ambulation has important implication on reducing the incidence of urinary retention after anal surgery under spinal anesthesia, without causing PDPH.

11,609 of childhood new outpatients seen in Department of Dermatology of Seoul National University Hospital from 1975 to 1984 were analyzed statistica,lly. The study results were summarized as follows: l. 11, 609 out of 48, 188 new outpatients were under 15 years old age, amounting to 24. l %. 2. The 10 most common dermatoses were atopic dermatitis, vitiligo, urticari, hemangiorna, contact dermatitis, fungal disease, molluscum contagiosum, scabies, impetigo and nevocellular neuvs. The most freguent age groups were 2 to 6 years amounting to 47 2p, af total outpatients. 4. The peak incidence occurred in August, while the lowest incidence occurred in November and October. 5. Dermatoses which showed increasing tendency were nevocellular nevus and vitiligo, those of decreasing tendency were contact dermatitis and impetigo,

We report a 19-year-old man with hyperkeratosis of nipple and areola which is a part of an epidermal nevus. He did not have a history of endocrinopathy or synthetic steroid therapy. The lesion, a fingertip sized verrucous dark browncolored macule on left upper back, had spread into left-anterior chest wall and had involved nipple and areola to make them hyperkerstotic and verrueous. Histologic section from the on left areola showed hyperkeratosis, papillomatosis, acanthosis and increased pigmentation in the basal cell layer. Chernical peeling with 30% trichloroacetic showed favorable response.
