Neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis(NEH) was originally described in 1982 by Harrist et al. in a patient with myelogenous leukemia receiving chemotherapy. Clinically NEH represents various cutaneous manifestations with or without tenderness and pruritus. Histologic examination demonstrates a neutrophilic infiltrate within and around the eccrine gland and degeneration of the eccrine gland structures. Although the pathogenesis and possible cause of NEH remain unknown, it is probably an unusual cutaneous reaction to chemotherapeutic agents. A few cases of infection associated eccrine hidradenitis are found in the literature. We report three cases of neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis. Two cases were associated with hematologic malignancy. The third case was associated with an infection of Vibrio vulnificus.

BACKGROUND: Hemoptysis is a common clinical symptom, responsible for 11% of admission to the hospital chest service. Correct diagnosis, accurate localization of the bleeding source and proper management are imperative to reduce the risk of massive hemoptysis. We performed the study to define the optimal time of fiberoptic bronchoscopy in 63 patients with hemoptysis admitted to Kyung Hee University Hospital between Aug 1989 and Aug1992. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of medical records concerning the cause, amount, duration of hemoptysis and the timing of fiberoptic bronchoscopy in 63(M:F=36:27) patients. RESULTS: 1) The main causes of hemoptysis were pulmonary tuberculosis(52.4%) bronchiectasis(27.0%) and lung cancer(11.1%). 2) The bleeding sites were localized in 26 Patients(41.3%). 3) The rates of localization of bleeding site were not related to the amount and duration of hemoptysis. 4) The rates of localization of bleeding site were 61.8%(21/34) during hemoptysis,18.2%(122) within 24hr after resolution of hemoptysis, 14.3%(1/7) thereafter. CONCLUSION: Early bronchoscopy, especially during hemoptysis may show higher rates of successful localization than delayed bronchoscopy.

Localized primary cutaneous amyloidosis consists of three types: nodular, macular, and lichenoid amyloidosis. Lichen amyloidosis is characterized by the appearance of paroxysmally itchy lichenoid papules on the shins. Although the origin of the amyloid is controversial and can not provide any definite answer, some of amyloid substances can be derived from epidermal cells and others from degenerative collagen fibers. We suggested the origin of amyloid in our cases as epidermal keratinocyte and collagen degenerations. Because degeneration of basal keratinocyte is observed on electron microscopy and degeneration of collagen is in H&E and Masson's trichrome stain although amyloid materials are negatively stained against pankeratin antibody and collagen antibody. The skin lesion was improved after triamcinolone intralesional injections which reduce collagen synthesis. We report two cases of lichen amyloidosis which stained negatively for antikeratin antibodies and improved with triamcinolone intralesional injection.

Recently, we have encountered an increasing number of patients who have obtained topical steroids to self-treat various dermatosis. Tinea incognito has been used to describe a dermatophyte infection modified by corticosteroid treatment. Lesions are often atypical appearing and the diagnosis can be delayed or missed. We report a case of tinea incognito with ill-defined erythematous patch and nodules on the right upper eyelid and taken intermittently application with corticosteroid ointment over a period of l year. Mycologic studies including KOH mount and fungus culture were positive for hyphae and colonies of Trichophyton mentagrophytes. The lesion was treated with of itraconazole and cured 3 weeks later.

A vertebral artery (VA) injury presents a difficult problem in atlantoaxial fixation. Recent technical reports described posterior C2 fixation using bilateral, crossing C2 laminar screws. The translaminar screw technique has the advantages of producing little risk of VA injury and the unconstrained screw placement. In addition, biomechanical studies have demonstrated the potential of the translaminar screw technique to provide a firmer construct that is equivalent to methods currently used. We report the successful treatment of C1-2 instability with a left-side high-riding VA. Because of the potential risk of VA injury, we performed a posterior C1-2 fixation with a combination of pedicle screws and a laminar screw in C2. We first placed bilateral C1 lateral mass screws and a right-side C2 pedicle screw. However, placement of the left- side C2 pedicle screw was technically difficult due to a narrow isthmus and pedicle. A laminar screw was inserted instead and authors believe that this posterior C1-C2 fixation with a combination of pedicle screws and a laminar screw in C2 can be a useful alternative technique for the treatment of C1-C2 instability in the presence of a unilateral high-riding VA.

PURPOSE: To analyze the clinical features and prognostic factors of ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN). METHODS: A total of 31 eyes of 31 patients with suspected OSSN who were treated with excision and biopsy were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical features such as patient symptoms, invasion type, morphologic feature and size of lesion were analyzed. All patients were treated with simple excision or mitomycin C combination therapy. Factors affecting recurrence were evaluated. RESULTS: The most common symptom, invasion type, morphological feature, lesion size and histological diagnosis were foreign body sensation (38.7%), combined conjunctiva and cornea type (71.0%), gelatinous type (74.2%), 5 - 10 mm in largest diameter (45.2%) and intraepithelial neoplasia (51.6%), respectively. Age, sex, morphological features, lesion size and histological diagnosis had no effect on recurrence. Mitomycin C combination therapy was significantly associated with decreased recurrence compared to simple excision (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In OSSN, intraepithelial neoplasia was the most common subtype. Mitomycin C combination therapy was effective in decreasing recurrence.
