We reported the case of Mr. M.H. Lee aged 46 years, who was first seen March. 4, 1972. The Chief complaint was pain on the left forehead and nausea for one day. Tension with the Schiotz tonometer was 45mmHg. The skin of left side of the forehead, inside of the eyebrow, left side of the radix nasi and nostril showed irregular papule formation in small circumscribed areas 2 days after admission. Acute iritis finding was occurred 6 days after the onset. The clinical course was one month. Sensitivity of the cornea was recovered and vision was improved to normal without posterior synechia or corneal ulcer.

Some of chronic benign recurrent dermatoses are markedly recalcitrant to the ordinary dermatological treatments. The author studied the therapeutic effect of beta ray on those of 30 patients including 6 cases of psoriasis, 3 of lichen simplex chronicus, 9 of nummular eczema, 8 of pustulosis palmaris et plantaris, and 4 of chronic eczema of the finger. All of the above were promptly recurred with ordinary treatments. Strontium 90 applicator was used as the source of beta ray and the total irradiation doses to each sites were ranged from 600 to 1500 rads in divided doses(usually weekly) over 2 to 3 weeks. The results were as follows, 1. In psoriasis patients with papular type were cleared by strontium 90, however, with chronic localized plaque type were poorly responded. The relapses of the cleared papular type were noticed between 13 to 24 days intervals, and it appeared that the larger doses did not influence significantly the clinical results. 2. Almost all of the chronic eczematous dermatoses including lichen simplex chronicus, nummular eczema, pustulosis Palmaris et plantaris, and chronic eczema of the finger, which were irradiated by beta rays following clearance with preliminary corticosteroid therapy, were recurred between 2 to 4 weeks intervals. However, larger doses resulted in prolonged recurrence intervals in a few patients. 3. No noticeable eariy hazards of irradiation were detected except for the mild hyperpigmentation on the irradiated skin.

Multiple myeloma is a primary malignant tumor of bone marrow characterized by proliferation of cells arising from primitive marrow reticulum that resemble plasma cells. This is one of the most common primary malignant neoplasm involving bone elements. Bone pain, soft tissue mass, low grade fever, anemia, neurologic symptom and renal insufficiency are the main clinical pictures. Authors present radiological and clinical findings of multiple myeloma in 10 cases of pathologically proved multiple myeloma. The results obtained are as follows; 1. In the age and sex distributions, all cases are over 45 years of age, and male to female is 7:3. 2. Clinical manifestations are bone pain, anemia, infection, weight loss, and bleeding. 3. Radiological findings are numerous punched out osteolytic lesions, generalized osteoporosis & osteolytic change, pathologic compression fractures, fracture only and osteoporosis, lytic and fractures. 4. Laboratory findings are monoclonal gammopathy in serum-electrophoresis, proteinuria, anemia, elevated uric acid in serum, Bence-Jones protein in urine and albumin/globulin ration inverse in serum protein.

A case of Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome described originally by Klippel and Trenaunay on 1900, was presented with a brief review of literatures. The patient, 30 year-old male, said that he had noticed a reddish plaque in his right leg at the age of about 10 and had felt the asymmetricity of the limbs about 5 years later. On physical examination, he had an ulcerated sclerosing hemangioma on his right limb which is extending from medial aspect of upper one third of the lower leg to the foot. It was also associated with the varicosities just above the hemangioma, edema and hypertrophy around the right ankle, and a visible elongation of the right limb. A plane X-ray revealed osteohypertrophy of tibia and fibula without any periosteal reaction, and a soft tissue hypertrophy was also noticed around the right ankle. Histological findings of the hemangioma revealed moderate fibrosis around the proliferated vascular tissue and two of the remarkable thrombosis in the median sized vessels.

Isolated bronchogenic cysts of the diaphragm are rare abnormalities. They are usually asymptomatic unless secondarily infected or large enough to cause compression of vital structures. The patient was a 31-year-old man and had no symptoms except mild postprandial epigastric discomfort. The chest X-ray and chest C-T examination revealed a mediastinal mass at the left cardio-vertebro-phrenic angle. We performed the operation under the impression of solid mass at mediastinum. We revealed that the mass was bronchogenic cyst in diaphragm. Therefore we report this case with review of literatures.
