Granuloma faciale is an uncommon localized form of small-vessel vasculitis characterized by single or multiple lesions on the face in middle-aged whites, especially males. Histopathological examination demonstrates a dense polymorphous cellular infiltrate consisting of neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes and histiocytes in the upper two thirds of the dermis. A characteristic subepidermal Grenz zone separates the infiltrate from the epidermis. We report a case of granuloma faciale, showing interesting evidence of palisaded granuloma-like pattern in the serial biopsy specimen at 3-year interval.

While most dermal melanocytoses are congenital or have an onset in early childhood, there is an acquired group with a late onset. We describe a case of aldolescent onset, unilateral, macular dermal melanocytosis on the hand. A 16-year-old girl presented with a 10-month history of gray-bluish pigmentation on the right palm and the volar side of the right fourth finger. The light microscopic studies showed spindle-shaped dermal melanocytes. The S-100 protein staining of these cells was positive and CD68 staining was negative. Dermal melanocytosis of the macular type, as observed in our case, is very rare.

Gram-negative toeweb infections have clinical manifest,ations of variable severity. In its mildest form, the affected tissue is damp, softened, boggy and white. But. more severe form may progress to marked denudation of second, third and fourth toewebs with a profuse serous or purulent discharge, and its treatment is difficult. We described a 39-year-old man who had ulcerated arid oozing patches on several toewebs. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was detected in bacterial cultures. We successfullg treated with split-thickness skin graft, and enoxacin on first, visit and enoxacin with gentamicin ointment, for 2 weeks on second visit.

Supernunmerary nipple is a developmental anomaly occuring alon, the course of the embryological milk lines. This entity has receieved little attention in the dermatologic literature and has been confused with a pigmented nevus in some cases. We have experienced two ease of the more unusual form of supern umerary nipple. According to the Kajavas classification, our caes are classified as polithelia pilosa and complete breast with nipple

The purpose of this study was to examine the frequency of eutaneous disorders in patients with chronie renal failure presently on hemodialysis(HD). The results were as follows. 1. Cutaneous lesions were present in all 78(100% ) patients with chronic renal failure. 2. The frequency of msjor cutaneous problems associated with chronic renal failure was as follows: xerosis(82.1%), pruritus(74.4%), nail changes(74.4%), hyperpigmentation(70.5 % ), xerostomia(42.3'Yo), poor wound healing(37.2%), easy bruisability(30,8%), hypotrichosis(21.896), and purpura(14.1 % ). 3. Cutaneous problems which appeared after the initiation of HD were. appearance of new pigmented nevi or lentigines(9 patients), appearance or aggravation of acne(6), contact dermatitis at AV fistula site(2), gynecomastia(1), extensive flat warts(1), extensive tinea versicolor(1), and extensive vitiligo(1). 4. Among 55 patients with hyperpigmentation, 11 patients reported decreased pigmentation following HD. In 15 patients, hyperpigmentation worsened following HD, and in 9 patients hyperpigmentation first appeared after HD was initiated. 5. Cutaneous disorders favorably affected by HD were as follows: easy bruisability(3/ 24), xerostomia(3/33), gingival friability(2/7), and hypotrichosis(5/17). 6. Poor wound healing and xerosis were not improved by HD. 7. Among 58 pruritic patients, 7 patients were improved after HD, 7 patients became worse during each HD, and 3 patients were not pruritic only for 2 to 3 days after each HD. Four patients experinced pruritus only during each HD. 8. There was no significant statistical difference between the frequency of pruritus and xerosis and the levels of blood urea nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus, and parathyroid hormone.
