The most frequently reported neurological complication of a wasp sting is ischemic stroke. We
treated a patient with wasp sting with unusual complications. A 52-year-old man was hospitalized
for anaphylactic shock after multiple wasp stings. Although the patient recovered consciousness
after 2 days, he had global aphasia and right hemiparesis. Brain magnetic resonance imaging and
angiography revealed high-intensity signals in the left basal ganglia and cerebral cortex and stenosis
of the left middle cerebral artery. After 2 days, the middle cerebral artery stenosis improved. After 5
days, diffusion-weighted imaging showed an enlarged lesion in the left frontal cortex. The infarct in
this case was due to a predominantly unilateral vasoconstrictive hypoxic brain injury from wasp stings.

Disseminated superficial actinic porokeratosis (DSAP) is a rare keratinization disorder. It is histopathologically characterized by the presence of coronoid lamellae and clinically by lesions showing central atrophy with elevated borders. Squamous cell carcinoma originating in the classical Mibelli subtype of porokeratosis is well-documented; however, few reports have described squamous cell carcinoma in DSAP lesions. We report the case of a 76-year-old woman with DSAP who developed Bowen's disease, actinic keratosis, and keratoacanthoma on her face.

Allergic contact dermatitis is an inflammatory condition associated with periorbital erythema, edema, and pruritus. The periorbital skin is relatively thin compared with the skin over other facial areas; therefore, it is vulnerable to allergen penetration and may show a variety of cutaneous manifestations. Recently, vision enhancement surgery is a widely performed procedure, and the prevalence of senile cataract and glaucoma is increasing. The prevalence of periocular allergic contact dermatitis is increasing secondary to the growing use of topical ophthalmic medications. Several studies in Korea have reported periocular allergic contact dermatitis secondary to the use of topical ophthalmic medications including latanoprost (Latano®), fluorometholone (Tolon®), polymyxin B (Terramycin®), atropine sulfate (Atropine®), neomycin sulfate (Cambison®), and befunolol hydrochloride (Bentos®), among others. However, ofloxacin (Effexin®)-induced allergic contact dermatitis has not been reported in the domestic and/or foreign literature. We report a case of periocular allergic contact dermatitis secondary to the use of ofloxacin ophthalmic ointment.

Elephantiasis nostras verrucosa (ENV) is an uncommon condition caused by repeated inflammation and lymphatic obstruction. It occurs mainly in the lower extremities and is characterized by skin changes, including hyperkeratotic mossy papules and plaques, non-pitting edema, and cobblestone-like appearances. ENV can be diagnosed based on its typical clinical manifestations (pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia with enlarged lymphatic spaces, fibrous tissue proliferation, and chronic inflammation) and by skin biopsy. Although ENV is difficult to treat, reduction of lymphedema and use of keratolytic agents may be helpful. To our knowledge, only three cases of ENV have been reported. However, the case of ENV treated with oral acitretin has not been reported in domestic literatures. Therefore, we report the case of a 45-year-old woman who developed ENV. She had a past history of cellulitis and was successfully treated with oral acitretin.

PURPOSE: The 99mTc-Dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) renal scan is used primarily for the diagnosis of renal scarring and acute pyelonephritis in children with urinary tract infections (UTI). This study aimed to evaluate clinical differences based on the positive or negative results of DMSA scans and kidney ultrasonography (US) in pediatric UTI. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 142 pediatric patients with UTI who were admitted to Myongji Hospital from January 2004 to December 2012. We performed a comparative analysis of clinical parameters such as age, sex, white blood cell (WBC) count, neutrophil count, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level, creatinine (Cr) level, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, and durations of hospitalization and fever, grouped by the results of the DMSA scans and kidney US. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 33.8+/-48.3 months, and 78 (55%) were male. Fifty-two patients had abnormal DMSA findings, and 71 patients had abormal kidney US findings (test positive groups). In the DMSA scan positive group, there were significant differences in age, WBC counts, neutrophil counts, CRP level, BUN level, Cr level, hospitalization duration, number of abnormal findings on kidney US, and incidence of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) compared with the scan negative group. The kidney US positive group had significant differences in age, neutrophil count, CRP level, BUN level, Cr level, hospitalization duration, number of abnormal findings on the DMSA scans, and more frequent VUR compared with the US negative group. CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that there were no major differences in clinical parameters based on the results of the DMSA scans compared with kidney US in pediatric UTI. However, as kidney US and DMSA scan were performed to predict VUR, the sensitivity and negative predictive value was increased.
