To provide basic information for the proper usage of frozen convenience foods in elementary school foodservice operations, 51 dietitian employeed in school foodservices in Inchon were surveyed. Among the frozen convenience foods, dumpling-type foods(60.8%) and processed meats(40.4%)were used widely in school foodservice. Generally, the frequency of using frozen food items was fewer than 1 time per month. More than 15% of respondents were using pork cutlet, chiken, chikenball, dumpling stuffed with meat about 2-3 times per month. Sweet and sour pork(Tangsuyuk), kebap(Sanjuk), fish/shrimp cutlet, fried potato items were used only fewer than 1 time per month. Dietitian's age, carrier, employed status influenced the utilization rate. The grand mean of satisfaction score was 3.36 out of 5. The factors affecting satisfaction in using frozen foods were sanitation, taste, price, nutrition, food additives in order. The major reasons of utilizaing frozen convenience foods were 'improved labor productivity(4.47)' and 'meet customer preference(4.25)'. The limiting factors in using frozen foods were taste(35.3%), price(23.5%), nutrition(17.6%). The management practices of frozen convenience foods through food processing flow were assessed. Average performance rate was 64.7%. To enlarge the usage of frozen convenience foods in foodservice operations, dietitians should observe sanitary practices.

Prurigo pigmentosa(PP) is a rare dermatosis with an unknown cause characterized by intensely pruritic papules that resolve with reticulate pigmentation. It is a disease entitity commonly reported in Japan but seemingly rare in other parts of the world. We report 5 cases that clinically and histopathologically fulfilled the characterisitics of PP and were treated with dapsone resulting in significant clinical improvement.

A stomach cancer patient is reported, who presented with asterixis and dysarthria, after the administration of 5-fluorouracil derivatives, and progressed to a state of arnnesia and disorientation. At first impression was metastatic brain tumor however7 the result of a cerebrospinal fluid cytology for malignancy was negative, and magnetic resonance imaging study(MRI) revealed diffuse hyperintense lesion of the white matter, indicative of leukoencephalopathy. Upon discontinuing the drugs, patient recovered significantly.lly predominant muscle weakness from distal myopathy with rimmed vacuole formation While we present a young female.

Penile Horn occurs as a single or multiple lesions. It usually starts as warty growth that later becomes hyperkeratotic and assumes the appearance of a horn. A 22-year-old male patient was presented with a slow growing, asymptomatic, dark brownish colored, corn-shaped, protruding mass on prepuce of the penis for 5 months.

Reticulate acropigmentation of Kitamura, described first by Kitamura and Akam atsu in 1943, is a pigmentary disorder that may be determined by an autasomal dominant gene. Skin lesions are characterized clinically by depressed brownisL pigmented spots, in a reticulated pattern, on the extensor surface of the acral parts of the extremities. Most reported cases are confined to Japanese. We report herein a case of reticulate acropigmentation of Kitarnura in a 28- year-old woman, with a depressed brownish pigmented spots, in a reticulate pattern, on the dorsum of hands and left foot. The authors make the diagnosis of this case a reticulate acropigmentation of Kitamura for the clinical symptoms and histopathologic findings.
