Korean Journal of Dermatology 1973;11(2):69-72
A case of hereditary anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia associated with atopic dermatitis in 16 month old male is reported. He has been suffered from multiple symptoms of anhidrosis, hypotrichosis, anodontia and atopic dermatitis. The skin showed pale, shiny, thin and dry and hairless on whole body except in the scalp. Without sweat gland and flattening of epidermis on skin biopey is compatible with an hereditary anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

3.A Case ofFamilial Benign Chronic Pemphigus.
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1974;12(4):245-248
A case of familiar benign chronic pemphigus is reported. A 41 years old housewife has recurrent history of developing grouped vesicular eruptions with erythematous erosion on the intertrigenous area since 29 years of her age. The lesions were used to aggrevated in summer and improved in autumn. Familiar history revealed same disease of her grand mother, father, 44 year old elder sister and 39 year old younger sister. All of whom had similar clinical signs and symptoms. Routine physical and laboratoryfindings were within normal limits. The histopathological findings, from vesicular eruption of the lateral aspect of neck, showed multilocular suprabasal clefts with acantholsis, villi formation and hyperkeratosis. The lesions were-improved hy the local application of corticosteroidoid ointment only.

4.Clinical Study with Descresept(R).
Korean Journal of Dermatology 1976;14(2):97-100
The 16 out of 19 cases with combined oral administration oral of Descrespet and Tetracycline hydrochloride were considerably more effective in treatment of severe acne than Tetracycline hydrochloride alone or placebo in this study. 10 cases of atopic dermatitis and 6 severe acne with side effect for tetracycline hydrochlorid, such as aMominal discomfortness, also treated with Descresapt: 7 cases of atopic dermatitis and 4 acne cleared definitely faster than in patient not given Descresept Conclusively, it is cnosidered that the Descresept is effective in the tretment of severe acne and atopic dermatitis.

5.A Case of the Primary Malignant Melanoma in Conjunctiva.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 1969;10(4):19-21
Malignant melanoma is considered as one of the tumor originated from precancerous melanosis and predilected in the iris and choroid. The Authors experienced a case of malignant melanoma affecting the upper palpebral conjunctiva in 39 year old female. The tumor mass was excised radically and followed by X-Ray therapy. Slight opacities of lens body is developed after X-ray irradiation.

Fibrous histiocytoma composed of fibroblasts and histiocytes is quite variable in histologic pattern. The biologic behavior is unpredictable by histologic ground. This tumor is well-known in subcutaneous tissue and deep soft tissue, but quite rare in central nervous system. We experienced a case of the fibrous histiocytoma involving the dura mater of spinal cord in a 26 year old female patient. In gross findings, the mass was a well demarcated, ovoid mass attached to the dura matter, and measured 2.5x1.5 cm in diameter. The cut surface was rubbery, solid, gray-white or yellow. Microscopically, the lesion consisted of polyhedral cells with round or oval nuclei and faintly eosinophilic or vaculoated cytoplasm, and multinucleated giant cells. Some giant cells were Touton-type. Composing cells were bland-looking. Mitotic figures were average 3 per 10 high power fields.

The clinical and pathological features of a case Malignant mixed mullerian tumor of the ovary in 45 year-old female patient with a brief review of the literature are presented. She had both ovarian tumors. The masses are multilocular cystic tumor with interspersed solid component. The cystic component is filled with serous fluid. Microscopically the tumor is composed of epithelial element & intimately related mesenchymal element. The epithelial element shows the findings of adenocarcinoma of solid, glandular and papillary growth. The mesenchymal element is composed of malignant-looking stroma with cartilage formation.

STUDY OBJECTIVE: We evaluate the clinical characteristics and natural history of patients presenting with spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPNM) . DESIGN: A retrospective case series was conducted to identify patients diagnosed with SPNM. ICD-7(J98.2) discharge codes were used for Jan. 1993 to Aug. 1996 at four institutions , and emergency department(ED) records and admission charts were reviewed. Clinical features, interventions, complications, setting, etiology, symptoms, and length of hospital stay were recorded. PARTICIPANTS: All ED patients more than 12 years old with a diagnosis of SPNM. RESULTS: Thirteen cases were identified. Age range was 14 to 58 years(mean 24 years). Presenting symptoms were chest pain in eight(62%), dyspnea in six(46%), both symptoms in three(23%), no complaints in three(23%). Seven(54%) patients complained only of throat discomfort. Seven(54%) had subcutaneous emphysema, and two(15.3%) had a small pneumothorax. Two(15.3%) were smokers. Three(23%) had normal esophagograms and another three had normal chest CT findings. Two cases(15.3%) were associated with inhalational drug use and three cases were due to exercise. Nine cases(69%) had a history of "Valsalva-type" maneuver. Two patients(15%) had a history of antituberculous treatment and one(7.7.%) had suffered from bronchial asthma. Mean hospital days were 7.3 days(range 3 to 14), none of all needed any intervention. Specifically, no patient developed a subsequent pneumothorax or airway compromise. Seven cases(54%) were received prophylactic antibiotics. CONCLUSION: Most simple SPNM cases are benign disease and most of them(78%) had shown typical chest pain, dyspnea and subcutaneous emphysema. Inhalational drug use is not a main cause of SPNM yet, but increase in use of bronchoinhalers is a suspicous cause of SPNM.
