We report a case of 63 year old man with giant negative T-wave inversion associated with metastic lung cancer to apex of right ventricle. On admission, chest x-ray demonstration a round and well marginated mass on right upper lobe. Electrocardiogram showed deep and symmetric T-wave inversion in precordial leads. This finding of electrocardiogram were compatible with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Under the impression of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or acute coronary insufficiency, we performed 2D-echocardiogram. 2D-echocardiogram showed, about 6x3cm sized, inhomogeneous right ventricular apical mass. For the differential diagnosis of myocardiac infarction, we performed coronary angioram, Which showed no significant stenosis of right and left coronary artery. We performed a biopsy from lung mass and right ventricular apical mass. Pathologic examination revealed non-small cell lung cancer with metastasis to right ventricle. So we report a case of giant negative T-wave inversion suspected due to RV apical hypertrophic secondary to metastatic lung cancer with a review of literature.

Intralesional belomycin injection has been an effective treatment of recalcitrant warts since 1970. A 1 U/ml solution of bleomycin sulfate in normal saline or lidocaine solution was injected intralesionally in 72 warts of 33 patients on the hands, forearm, feet, and face. Dosage of bleomycin was dependent on the size of warts, usually 0.1 to 0.15 cc of solution. All patients was permitted to wash the treated area without care. 59 (81.9%) of 72 warts were cured after one injection, 12 (16.7%) warts after two or three bleomycin injections. One large wart was not cured. Most patients experienced minimal painful discomfort for two to three days after one to two days of injection, but did not take the analgesics. There was no evidence of systemic and local toxicities. The most responsive warts shoed hemorrhagic black eschars that separated after 2 to 3 weeks and healed with very little or no scar tissue. Intralesional bleomycin injection is a reliable and useful alternative for the treatment of warts.

Histoid leproma usually occur in pat.ients with lepromatous leproy who have had relapsed after being undcr treatment(usually sulfones) for a long time and who have shown variable improvement. A 56 year old female patient who had been suffering from lepromatous leprosy and had been treated which clapsone relatively regularly for approximately 28 years had a history of several shiny rice grain t.o peanut sized nodules on the face and right flank. Histopathologic examination of a specimen taken from a nodular lesian revealed a well circirmscrihed nodule composed mainly of spindle-shaped cells and epithe:ioi 1 cells on the upper and mid-levmis, and granuloma composed of epithelioid cells, multinucleated wait cells and foamy histiocytes on the lower dermis. In AFB stain, numerous acid-fast bacilli were scatt red dermis and epidermis, especially stratum corneum. This study opplied a polymease chain reaction(PCR) on sections of biopsy tissues and peripheral blood of pat.ient. Positive amplification of a 530 bp fragment was deteated not only in the lesion tissues but also in the per ipher al blood.
