Gastric glomus tumor is an uncommon benign, submucosal neoplasm and does not require radical surgical procedure. Because there are no specific clinical or radiologic features associated with the glomus tumor, it can be recognized only by its histologic characteristics. We report a 30-year-old woman who had 10 years history of epigastric hunger pain. Radiologically, a gastric submucosal tumor was discovered, which was suggestive of leiomyoma. Gastric antrectomy was performed. The tumor cells showed immunohistochemical and ultrastructural evidence of smooth muscle differentiation.

Primary subacute pyogenic osteomyelitis is defined as a bone infection of insidious onset lasting for more than several weeks without any acute systemic toxic reactions and is known to have the problem of diagnosis because there is no inflammatory symptoms or signs and X-ray findings are similar to various bone tumors. Authors reviewed 29 cases of primary subacute pyogenic osteomyelitis of long bones admitted at Fatima hospital during the years between 1976 and 1984. The osteomyelitis of infants and the osteomyelitis modified by antibiotics were excluded. The diagnosis of the cases was confirmed by bacteriological examination and/or tissue examination. The results were as follows. 1. The cases were 18 males and 11 females and 19 adults and 10 children. Male predominence was noted in children. 2. The involved bones were 11 tibias, 10 femurs and all other long bones. The involved sites were 18 metaphysis and 11 shafts. 3. All of the cases has insidious onset of local pain without any acute systemic symptoms and most of the cases has local tenderness but local deep swelling noted in about half of the cases. 4. There were many cases with elevated ESR and a few cases of slight leukocytosis. 5. The confirmed infecting organism was all staphylococcus in 16 cases of the cultures from the 25 lesions. 6. The X-ray findings were Brodies abscess in 10, illdefined cavity in 3, diffuse bones absorption in 5, diaphyseal lesion of adult with localized cortical sclerosis in 5 and with localized medullary abscess in 3 and diaphyseal lesion of children with localized medullary abscess and periosteal reaction in 3 cases. 7. All of the cases cured rapidly with rare recurrence after treatment by simple local excision in 4 and curettage in 22 cases combined with antibiotic therapy and local immobilization.

Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 2021;62(3):405-407
Purpose:
We report a lenticular cyst in an 8-year-old boy.Case summary: An 8-year-old boy visited our clinic with reduced visual acuity. On slit lamp examination, an immobile lenticular cyst was evident on the posterior lens capsule of the left eye. There was no other abnormality. He had no history of ocular trauma or surgery. His Snellen best-corrected visual acuities (BCVAs) were 1.0 (-0.50 Dsph 0.50 Dcyl ×180°) in the right eye and 0.3 (+3.25 Dsph 1.00 Dcyl ×180°) in the left. After diagnosis of a primary lenticular cyst and anisometropic amblyopia, the child was prescribed glasses and occlusion therapy (8 hours daily). After 3 months, the BCVA improved to 0.9 in the left eye and was maintained. No change in lenticular cyst size was observed during 8 months of follow-up.
Conclusions
Primary lenticular cysts are very rare in children. When the cyst is too small to occlude the visual axis, amblyopia treatment (glasses and occlusion therapy) is preferable to surgery, being both non-invasive and effective.

Blue nevus is a benign melanocytic neoplasm and represents itself usually as a solitary blue or blue-black papule. It rarely occurs as multiple lesions grouped in a circumscribed area. How-ever, non-grouped disseminated blue nevi are exceedingly rare. We report a patient with acquired multiple blue nevi that was distributed over the entire body discretely and showed an increase in the number of the nevi without any causal factors.

We report an uncommon case of sebaceous adenoma in a 36-year-old male who had a solitary, well-de6ned, 0.5×0.8cm sized, round, erythematous nodule on the right side of his forehead. Microscopically, the nodule was composed of poorly developed sebaceous lobules that were irregular in size and shape in the deep reticular dermis. The lobules were composed of mature sebaceous cells in the center and undifferentiated basaloid cells at the periphery. In most lobules, the two types of cells occured in approximately equal proportions. We excised the lesion completely and no evidence of recurrence was observed for 2 years.

BACKGROUND: Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a strong urticariogenic agent and a primary irritant. A DMSO test which measures erythema and wheal responses in skin after exposure for 5 min could be a simple and easy method in evaluating cutaneous irritation. Several non-invasive bioengineering methods for the evaluation of skin irritancy have been developed in recent decades. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether the DMSO test using filter paper discs instead of the open well with measurements of transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and erythema index (E-index) could be useful to study skin irritancy. METHODS: Twenty healthy volunteers (19-29 years, 10 males and 10 females) with no history of atopic dermatitis were included. DMSO solutions (90%, 95%, and 100%) of 60l were applied to the left volar forearm for 5 min using filter paper discs (12mm) for large Finn chamber. Visual scores (whealing scores and erythema), TEWL and E-index were measured at 30 min after removal of the filter papers. RESULTS: The number of subjects showing erythema and wheals after DMSO exposure were: 6 (30%), 8 (40%) with 90% DMSO solution; 14 (70%), 15 (75%) with 95% DMSO solution; and 20 (100%), 20 (100%) with 100% DMSO solution, respectively. Whealing scores were 0.5±0.6 (90%), 1.4±1.1 (95%), 3.5±0.9 (100%), and erythema ones were 2.9±4.9 (90%), 7.7±7.2 (95%), 20.0±6.5 (100%). E-index results were 10.0±3.4 (90%), 10.9±3.1 (95%), 12.3±2.7 (100%), and TEWL values were 14.6±4.9 (90%), 21.0±8.8 (95%), 44.9±15.3 (100%). As the DMSO concentrations were increased, there were significant increases in whealing scores, and erythema and TEWL values. E-index results were not significant, but showed a rising score tendency. There were no significant differences between the males and the females. CONCLUSION: DMSO testing may be a quick and simple method to assess cutaneous irritation. Also, TEWL measurements may be more accurate and sensitive than those of E-index measurement in the assessment of erythema and wheals. DMSO testing using filter paper discs with TEWL measurement could be a useful method in the study of cutaneous irritation.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of using gauze frozen with normal saline or ice on thirst-relief and oral condition of laparoscopic cholecystectomy patients. METHODS: A quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group, pretest-posttest design was used. Participants (n=53) received either gauze frozen with normal saline (n=17), ice (n=18) or wet gauze (n=18) for thirst-relief. The subjective thirst level and oral condition of the participants were assessed before the intervention, 15 min after the first intervention and 15 min after the second intervention. RESULTS: After oral care was provided twice, there were significant differences in thirst level among the groups. When oral care was provided twice, the oral condition of tongue, saliva, mucosal membrane, and gingiva was improved in patients receiving gauze frozen with normal saline or ice. CONCLUSION: Gauze frozen with normal saline and ice can be effective for oral care in reducing the thirst level and improving the condition of the oral cavity.
