1.Extensive Metallosis Caused by Plate and Screw Construct for Distal Fibular Fracture - A Case Report -.
Journal of the Korean Fracture Society 2013;26(2):147-150
Metallosis has been reported in the setting of weight-bearing joint arthroplasties, like the hip and knee joints. However, the prevalence of metallosis in non-articular portions is very uncommon. We report a rare case of a patient who had metallosis secondary by fibular nonunion after fixation with plate and screw. In addition, we discuss the clinical and the operative findings, as well as the outcome of this uncommon complication.

The authors present seven cases of Democidiosis in rosacea type and the subject of human demodetic infestation has been reviewed. According to our experience, demodex folliculorum, although a normal inhabitant of the sebaceous glands in small numbers, when encouraged to multiply by the patients excessive use of facial cream and avoidance of soap, can produce democidiosis. The diagnosis was easily confirmed by characteristic clinical appearance and simple microscopy. The characteristie clinical appearances are indurated non-comedous papules and pustules with unique cherry pinkish red erythema. The response to treatment, consisting of daily soap and water cleansing of the face, followed by the local application of a suitable antiparasitic remedies is simple and gratifying. But the erythema was not respond to antiparasitic preparation.

Herpes zoster is generally believed to be caused by the activation of varicella-zoster virus present in the body since an original infection with varicella. According to the thesis, the virus remairis in a latent state in the cells of the sensory ganglia until immunity has waned sufficiently to pezmit multiplication of the virus and clinical infection. There are a number of reports that in patient with malignant disease, especially Jymphoma, a frequenry af association of zoster is greater and severity of its symptom is increased to be marked contrast to the benign uneventful course of zoster seen in healthy person. The author observed one case of zoster seen in patient with malignant disorder, and frequency of association of zoster in malignant disease and its etiological factors are reviewed in the literature.

Marjolins ulcer is a special type of skin malignancy arising from previous scar site. We report two cases of Marjolins ulcer arising from chronic deg enerating burn scar. A 65-year-old male had a 9 x 15cm sized ulcer on his right popliteal fossa. He had a history of burn when he was seventeen years old and an ulcerati 1g tumor developed at the site of burn scar about 1 year ago. The ulcer became progressively penlarged in size and also painful. Skin biopsy revealed squamous cell carcinoma and,subsequently Above-Knee amputation was done. Another 54-year-old male had a painful coin sized ulcer on his right popliteal fossa where he had burn at the age of thirty-four. The ulcer was developed at the site of burn scar about 2months ago. The pathologic diagnosis was squamous cell carcinoma. He was recommended to get his leg amputated, but it was refused.

We report two cases of Darier's disease improved with Etretmate in the 44-year-old father and his 18-year-old son. Clinically, multiple dirty brownish, verrucous, discrete or confluent papules and plaques were noted on their back, abdomen, and face. Histopathologically, both of them demonstrated hyperkeratosis, suprabasal acantholysis, acantholytic cells in the lacunae, corpsronds, grains, and dyskeratotic cells. Oral Etretinate 30mg daily was given in both cases with remakable improvement 3 weeks after treatment. Six months later, they showed almost total clearin, of their skin lesions. No specific adverse effect was noted. There has been no evidence of recurrence for 6 months follow up period.

Korean Journal of Dermatology 1992;30(5):689-692
A 29-year-old woman had multiple, umbilicated papules on her fingers for 2 months. Skin biopsy specimen showed transepidermal perforation filled with plug of cellular debris, degenerated collagen and mucinous material. In the dermis, there were necrobiosis and peripheral palisading of mononuclear cells. Special stainings including masson's trichrome, alcian blue, acid orcein, and PAS showed necrobiotic collagen fibers and acid mucopolysaccharides on the necrobiotic zone and trasepidermal elimination canal. Topical application of 0.05% Clobetasol-17-propionate ointment improved her lesion.

A 50-year-old female, who had been suffered from diabetes rielitus, showed typical cutaneous findinhs of dermatomyositis with only transient and mild proximal muscle weakness at sometime during the course of disease. She had Gottrons papules, Gottrons sign, heliotrope rash, macular violsceous erythema involving neck, anterior chest, back, extensor site of forearms and arms and dorsa of hands. However, he serum CPK, LDH and sGOP levels were within normal limits. Her fasting and 2 hours potprandial blood glucose levels were elevated. There were no histological abnormality in muscle biopsy. Histopathologic findigs of the skin lesion on her back were that of poikiloderma atrophicans vasculare. We diagnosed our patient as Rebeccas type 2 amyopathic dematomyositis which is chracterized by skin disease with subjective myalgias and musle weakness, but without laboratory evidence of muscle disease.

BACKGROUND: This study was performed to compare the effectiveness of cholesterol-lowering diet therapy instructed by physicians with that instructed by dieticians using techniques that remove regression to the mean. METHODS: 118 patients who visited the office of Family Medicine department in Pusan Paik Hospital from February to November, 1996 and had serum total cholesterol(TC) concentrations greater or equal to 200mg/dL from two measurements were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups randomly according to the cholesterol-lowering dietary education methods : the one was educated by physicians(Group I), and the other by dieticians(Group II). We evaluated the differences of lipid levels after education in consideration of regression to the mean. RESULTS: The mean reduction in TC concentrations achieved by dietary therapy was 10.7 % and 7.3%(without and with adjustment for regression to the mean) in Group I, and 9.8 and 6.5%(without and with adjustment, for regression to the mean) in Group II. The baseline TC concentrations and TC concentrations after dietary therapy were significantly different in individual group regardless of adjustment for regression to the mean. However, the reduction degrees of TC concentrations were not significantly different between two groups. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate that even after adjustment for regression to the mean, dietary therapy will achieve the expected reduction. And it seems that the diet education by physicians will be effective as much as that by dieticians.
