It is difficult to get a satisfactoryresult for the correction of malunited fracture of zygoma. Triple osteotomy and reposition of malunited zygoma is accepted as the better surgical method than camouflage surgery by means of onlays, if the orbital floor is to be reconstructed. The surgical approach can be divided into bicoronal, periorbital, intraoral and old scar. In 7 patients with malunited fracture of zygoma, the authors used a limited approach through extension of periorbital incision and intraoral incision instead of wide exposure including bicoronal incision. And we performed triple wteotomy and advancement of zygoma complex. The patients were followed for 4.5 months with acceptable result, and this approach was an effective method for the relatively simple tripod typemalunited fracture of zygoma. The authors obtained following conclusions: 1. Preoperative evaluation through thorough measurement of X-rays, investigation of photographs and detail communication with the patients was an important process.

We report a case of a skin problem induced by a visual display t rminal in a 24-year-old female. The patient had erythematcn.is rashes, crusts on both zygomatic areas and upper eyelids with itching, burning and pain sensations after she had been exposed to her visual display terminal. After the cassation of exposure, her skin lesions were markedly improved. A proioction test with her own visual display terminal was positive.

Bullae and sweat gland necrosis have been often described in patients with mental ges, whieh commonly alanifested as erythematous or vesicobullaus lesions on pressure sites. Histopathologically, the aecrosis of sweat glands is a characteristic 6nding. Generalized and/or loca1 tlssue bypoxia due to prolonged ieamobihxation may have resulted in these clinical and histopakological manifestations. To date, we have experielwed 15 cases with bulla and sweat gland necrosis. On admission, about half the patients had carbon monoxide poisoning, and the remainders had alcohol overdosage, drug inioxication, and others. A11 our patients had menfal changes caused by carbon wonoxide poisening, aleohol intoxication, and others. Abrupt erythematous swelling and/or vesicobullous lesione affected pressure sites in all patients. Three patietns had erythematoias lesiqms on non-pressure sites simuhtaneously. Histopathologic examinatians of 12 biopsy specimes showed the necrosis of the epidermis, intra- or sub-epidermal bulla, and/or sweat gland necrosis.

We report a case of xanthoma disseminatum in a 24 year old male paitient. Multiple yellow-brown papules developed on the flexor aurfaces, such as the neck, axillae, antecubital fossae, groin, and perianal regions. Some papules were detected arouns the eyes and uvulai. biopsy specimen revealed a dense infiltrate of histiocytes, foam cells, Touton giant cells, and other inflammatory cells. No Langerhans granules were seen in the electron microscopic analysis.

We report a case of periumbilical pseudoxanthoma elasticum in a 73-year-old female. It is characterized by a dark-yellowish plaque present on the periumbilical area of the lower abdomen. The plaque is well-demarcated and its surface is grooved or fissured, atrophic and verrucoid. This localized lesion of the periumbilical area occurs in a multiparous woman with no history of hereditary systemic pseudoxanthoma elasticum.

Sebaceous carcinoma is an uncommon neoplasm usually associated with ocular adnexa. This malignancy may occur at any anatomic site that contains sebaceous glands. Despite the widespread anatomic distribution of sebaceous glands, extraocular sebaceous carcinoma occurs with far less frequency. We report a case of an 87-year-old Korean woman with extraocular sebaceous carcinoma treated with total excision.
