A statistical survey was made on 737 cases of cutaneous benign tumors that visited the Department of Dermatology at Seoul National University Hospital during a 11-year period from 1973 to 1983. The results were summarized as follows: 1) There were 329 cases of male(44. 6%) and 408 cases of female(55. 4%). The ratio of male to female was 1: l. 24. 2) Most patients with cutaneous benign tumors belonged to age ranged from 10 to 39 with the highest incidence in the 3rd decade. 3) According to Levers classification, 737 cases of cutaneous benign tumors were divided into following 6 groups: tumors and cysts of the epidermis(252 cases, 34, 2 tumors of the epidermal appendages(125 cases, 17.0%), tumors of fibrous tissue(98 cases, 13.3%), tumors of vascular tissue(158 cases, 21.4%), turnors of farty, muscular and osseus tissue(37 cases 5.0%), tumors of neural tissue(67 cases, 9. 1 %). 4) The distribution of the frequently observed cutaneous benign tumors was as fo]lows: epidermal cyst(12. 1%), nevus flammeus(11. 4%), neurofibroma(9, l%), linear epidermal nevus(7. 9%), syringoma(6, 6%), seborrheic keratosis(7. 9%.). nevus sebaceus(6. 0%), dermatofibroma(5. 8%), steatocystoma multiplex(4. 1%,), tuberous sclerosis(2. 8% ), granuloma pyogenicurn(2. 8%).

Bovine growth hormone (bGH) gene was expressed in an insect spodoptera frugiperda cell line using a Baculovirus, Hyphantria cunea nuclear polyhedrosis virus (HcNPV). The bGH gene in pbGH plasmid was sequenced and amplified by PCR technique with two primers containing NcoI sites. The bGH gene consisted of 654 bp (217 amino acid residues), the 5'-untranslated region of the cloned bGH cDNA contains 56 bp, and the 3'-untranslated region contains 145 bp and two pallindromic regions. The amplified bGH gene DNA fragment (654 bp) was inserted into the NcoI site of the pHcEVII vector, which was named pHcbGH. The pHcbGH transfer vector DNA and the wild type HcNPV DNA were cotransfected into s. frugiperda cells to construct a recombinant virus. Eight recombinant viruses were selected and named HcbGH. One clone, HcbGH-4-1 showed largest plaque size, therefore the recombinant virus was further studied. The multiplication patters of the recombinant HcbGH-4-1 was similar to that of the wild type HcNPV. The bGH gene DNA in the HcbGH-4-1 recombinant was confirmed by Southern lot hybridization. The amount of the bGH (217 amino acid residues, 21 kDa) produced in S. frugiperda cells infected with the HcbGH-4-1 recombinant was approximately 5.5 ng per ml (106 cells) by radioimmunoassay.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effectiveness of intreaepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (IE-PRK) for the treatment of myopic regression after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) METHODS: 38 eyes of 22 patients who had previous LASIK for myopia were selected and retreated with IE-PRK, in which a photoablation was performed directly in the epithelium without damage to Bowman's layer. All eyes were elapsed at least 6 months after the LASIK. Follow-up was up to 6 months and within +/-0.50 of emmetropia on 6 months after surgery was considered as a success. RESULTS: Before IE-PRK, the eyes regressed to a mean of .1.26+/-0.45 D spherical equivalent (SE). The mean SE at 1 week after IE-PRK was .0.44+/-0.88 D, 1 month was .0.59+/-0.45 D, 3 month was .0.63+/-0.41, 6 month was .0.62+/-0.43 (p<0.05). 23 of the 38 eyes (60.5%) had refraction within +/-0.50 and were considered as successfully treated. Preoperative mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.33+/-0.18 (Snellen equivalent) and final mean BCVA was 0.77+/-0.99 (p<0.01). There were no significant complications of corneal flap. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study indicate that intraepithelial photorefractive keratectomy appears to be a safe means for treating patients for regression after LASIK procedure. But success rate was not so good as the enhancement. Controlled studies with larger population will be necessary to evaluate the accuracy of the method more correctly.
