Darier's disease is an uncommon genodermatosis, characterized by the symmetric eruption of keratotic papules, focal loss of epithelial adhesion and abnormal keratinization. A unilateral, or localized variant has been identified as a mosaic form, involving linear or 'zosteriform' epidermal lesions with clinical and histological features of Darier's disease. Some suggest that unilateral lesions should be classified as acantholytic dyskeratotic epidermal nevi, rather than localized Darier disease. A 17-year-old male presented with unilateral zosteriform distribution of brownish hyperkeratotic papules with ipsilateral v-notching of the thumb nail. A biopsy specimen revealed acantholysis, suprabasal cleft and multiple dyskeratotic cells. We report a case of unilateral Darier's disease which further supports unilateral dermatologic manifestation as a variant of Darier's disease.

In 2005, Kreidstein first proposed the term "Cutis pleonasmus," a Greek term meaning "redundancy," which refers to the excessive skin that remains after massive weight loss. Cutis pleonasmus is clearly distinguishable from other diseases showing increased laxity of the skin, such as pseudoxanthoma elasticum, congenital and acquired generalized cutis laxa. Although individuals who are severely overweight are few and bariatric surgeries are less common in Korea than in the West, the number of these patients is increasing due to changes to Western life styles. We report a case for a 24-year-old man who presented with generalized lax and loose skin after massive weight loss. He was diagnosed with cutis pleonasmus based on the history of great weight loss, characteristic clinical features and normal histological findings. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of cutis pleonasmus in Korea.

Cutaneous metastasis of visceral carcinomas is rare among them, endometrial carcinoma accounts for less than 1% of all cases. A 71-year-old woman with FIGO stage IIIA endometrial adenocarcinoma presented with scalp metastasis 1 month after initial radical radiotherapy. Histopathologic examination showed multiple glandular structures composed of columnar epithelial cells with foci of squamous differentiation, which were similar to primary endometrial adenocarcinoma. Metastatic evaluation revealed widespread extrapelvic metastasis in the lung, bones, and skin. Endometrial carcinoma is usually characterized by local and lymphatic spread. Rarely, extensive disease shows hematologic spread for example, to the scalp, as in this case.

We present a patient with various features of oculo-auriculo-vertebral syndrome (OAVS), also known as Goldenhar's syndrome. In general, multiple accessory tragi in a linear distribution from the preauricular skin to the mandible or to the lateral neck suggest a diagnosis of OAVS. However, in most cases, an accessory tragus is an isolated developmental defect without an associated congenital syndrome. A female infant presented with a solitary, skin colored, sessile papule on the right lower cheek, microtia, and ear deformity since birth. A biopsy specimen showed numerous irregularly spaced hair follicles with a prominent connective tissue framework in the subcutaneous fat, but without central cartilage. Multiple congenital anomalies, including ocular lipodermoid, sensorineural hearing loss, and vertebral deformity, were found on further evaluation.
