Mucinous tumors of the ovary are the most common tumors arising from the common epithelium of the ovary in Korean. Distinguishing the tumor with borderline malignancy from mucinous cystadenocarcinoma is very important in determining proper therapeutic modalities and prognosis. Authors have undertaken morphometric analysis of various parameters from both borderline lesions and carcinomas of mucinous nature of the ovary. In each, five cases of the borderline and malignant tumors were subjected to be evaluated. Various cytologic and histologic parameters were analyzed using Kontron IBAS-I. 1) The most helpful parameter-for differentiation between borderline and malignant mucinous tumors is cell concentration (sensitivity 80%, specificity 80%). The discrimination value is more than 35 cells per 100 micrometer of the basement membrane length. If the cellular concentration is higher than the discriminating value, that indicates malignancy. 2) Tumor cell height, though it is other parameter of stratification, is not helpful for differentiation of the two lesions. 3) Cytologic atypia, either in size or in form, can not be a criterion distinguishing the borderline from malignancy. 4) Papillary growths can not be a criterion of either borderline and malignant lesions. 5) The degree of irregularity at tumor-stroma interface is not helpful for differentiation between borderline and malignancy.

Tricholroacetic acid (TCA) chemical peeling is an effective, versatle and safe therapeutic method for patients with pigmentary disorders, acne scars and aging skin. With an experienced and skilled operator, the associated complications are rare and tend to be mild. No. ystemic toxicity is known to be induced by TCA. We observed the effect of TCA chemical peeling, evaluated by 242 patients themselves with melasma, freckles, senile lentgines, pigmented nevi, seborrheic keratosis, skin tags or acne scars. The patients evaluated TCA peeling as excellent for the treatment of seboirheic keratosis, pigmented nevi, skin tags and acne scars, and as selectively recommendable for the treatment of melasma, freckles and senile lentigines.

There are numerous drug interactions related to many psychotropic and cardiovascular medications. Firstly, the principles in predicting drug interactions are discussed. Cytochrome P (CYP) 450 plays a significant role in the metabolism of these drugs that are substrates, inhibitors, or inducers of CYP450 enzymes. The two most significant enzymes are CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. The ability of psychotropic drugs to act as inhibitors for the enzymes may lead to altered efficacy or toxicity of co-administered cardiovascular agents as a substrate for the enzymes. The following is also a review of the known interactions between many commonly prescribed cardiovascular agents and psychotropic drugs. Most beta blockers are metabolized by CYP2D6, which may lead to drug toxicity when they use in combination with potent CYP2D6 inhibitors including bupropion, chlorpromazine, haloperidol, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, and quinidine. Concomitant administration of lithium with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, and diuretics may increase serum lithium concentrations and toxicity. Calcium channel blockers and cholesterol lowering agents are subject to interactions with potent inhibitors of CYP3A4, such as amiodarone, diltiazem, fluvoxamine, nefazodone, and verapamil. Prescribing antiarrhythmic drugs in conjunction with medications are known to prolong QT interval and/or inhibitors on a relevant CYP450 enzyme is generally not recommended, or needs watchful monitoring. Digoxin and warfarin also have warrant careful monitoring if co-administered with psychotropic drugs.
