Two cases of congenital multiple joint laxity are reported here. One was a 18-year-old boy, in whom the hypermobility of the joints was striking that 4 criterias (Carter & Wilkinson, 1964) could be observed. The other was a 18-year-old male who showed positive findings in three of the five diagnostic criterias. In both no familiar occurrence was noted.

Cutis naarmorata telangiectatica congenita(CMTC) was first lesribed by Van Lohuizen in 1992. Cases of CMTC were reported later under various names, includir gan Lohuizens syndrome, congenital generalized phlebectasia. congential phlebectasia and reticulatever scular nevus. It is charaterized by persistent livedo reticularis, telangiectasia and phlectnsia from birch hand atrophy and superficial ulceration of the overlying skin are uncornmonly encountered. They have a steady improvement with time, however various congenital abnormalties, such as varicosities, hen ariomas, hypoplasia or hypertrophy of soft tissue and bones, rarely generalized congenital fibrornatos ectal and genital anomaliies may be associated in approxirnately 50 percent of patients. In case 1, the patient was 45-day-old female infant with reticulated mottling and atrophy of the skin on the right leg. In case 2, the patient was 30-day-old male infant who depressed, bluish, and reticulated patches on the both upprarms, right side trunk, buttock and loen leg. Decreased circumferences of the affected extremities vas observed in case 2. No other assotated anomalies were found in physical and X-ray examinatiorwlin both cases. The skin biiopsy of bothed similar findings, which revealed mild dilatation and proliferation of capillaries, mild inflammatoryel infiltration and extravasated red blood cells in the dermis. The clinical follow-up, alneast all of th lisions disappeared spont.anously in 1 year at case 1, and some of lesions also disappeared in 3 month, 11 case 2. In addition, we reviewed and summerized the reported cases in Korea.

Eccrine carcinoma does not have a characteristic clinical appreranc, but does have a high incidence of metastatic spread. It may arise anywhere in the skin. The microscopic patterns that of an adenocarcinoma, which may be confused with metastatic adenocarcinoma. In the classical type the histologic features varies from fairy well-differentiated tubular structures in some areaslo anaplastic carcinoma in other areas. The patient was a 51-year-old man who showed a painful, tender, right red-calored, 4 x 5crn-sized tumor mass on the right angle of the lower lip for ten years. In the diological examinations multiple metastatic foci were seen on both lung fields, Histopathologic findings of the skin and lung biopsy specimens revealed that of the classic type of eccrine carcinoma like the bove descriptions. Immunocytochemical studies showed a positive reactivity to anti-cytokeratin anti-ibody, anti-CEA antibody, and anti-S-100 protein on the skin and lung biopsy specimens and no he reactivity to anti-S-100 protein on the lung mass. Electronrnicroscopic findings revealed eccrine glaidlar structures such as nunierous mitochondria and dense core granules in the cytoplasm of neoplastic cells. We report a case of eccririe carcinoma with lung metastases baed on the clinical, radiological and histologic findings.

Hypertensive encephalopathy is characterized by an acute, severe rise in blood pressure associated with headache, nausea, vomiting, altered mental status, and focal neurologic deficits, and rapid improvement after control of blood pressure. An eight-year old boy had been admitted with symptoms of red urine, fever, headache, convulsion, and visual blurring of vision. Blood pressure was 140/90mmHg, and CSF exam revealed WBC 8/mm3, glucose 83mg/dL, protein 106mg/dL. Serum C3 was 8mg/dL, C4 17mg/dL, ASO 1,024 Todd units. Brain CT showed non specific findings, however, MRI revealed symmetric high signal intensity lesions on T2WI over the parieto-occipital areas bilaterally. These lesions had been completely resolved on the following MRI 4 weeks later.
