Sixteen cases of congenital hemangiomata were treated with intralesional corticosteroid injectinn and followed up for 3 to 48 months. They consisted of 9 cases of strawberry hemangiomata with soft consistency, 4 cases of strawbery hemangiomata with firm consistency and 3 cases of cavernous hemangiomata. The results were as follows : 1) All the soft strawberry hemangiomata showed excellent response with marked shrinkage by single treatment. 2) The firm strawberry hemangiomata showed poor response with visible shrinkage after five times treatment, in average. 3) Among three cases of cavernous hemangiomata, one case with large palpable blood vessels in the lesion showed poor response, and two cases without palpable blood vessels in the lesion showed good response. 4) Temporary atrophy and pallor of the skin color were noticed in about half of the cases. Considering the concern of the patients parents, course of the hemangiomata., and the simplicity and effects of the treatment, this therapeutic method is regarded useful in the management of congenital hemangiomata, especially in soft st r awberry hemangiomata.

Surgically corrected congenital hiatal hernia associated with anemia has been presented. A 1 year old boy has been complained of severe pallor and fever on admission. Reentgenologic examination revealed thoracic stomach and then the hernia was repaired by transabdominal approach. It was found to be a paraesophageal type hiatal hernia. Pathogenesis and complications of congenital histal hernia were discussed and briefly reviewed.

Leriche syndrome is a chronic disorder mostly in male and is a specific symptom complex due to thrombotic obliteration of the aortic bifurcation as result of an atherosclerotic change. The symptoms include 1) extreme liability to fatigue of both lower limbs; 2) symmetric atrophy of both lower limbs; 3) pallor of the legs and feets; 4) inability to maintain stable erection. There are several methods for surgical management of this disorder; 1) thromboendarterectomy with or without sympathectomy; 2) aortoiliac bypass graft; 3) aortofemoral bypass graft. Here we report a case of Leriche syndrome which was successfully managed with aortobifemoral bypass graft with Dacron and reviewed literatures on it briefly.

PURPOSE: To report a case of visual improvement in methanol poisoning treated with intravenous methylprednisolone. CASE SUMMARY: A 64-year-old man presented with decreasing vision in both eyes after ingesting a car window cleanser. His initial visual acuity was the ability to count fingers in the right eye and hand motion in the left eye. The patient received intravenous methylprednisolone (1.0 gram), slowly over 1 hour. The same dose of methyl prednisolone was repeated on the second and third day. Then, oral prednisolone was given and tapered over a period of 7 weeks. On the 5th day after treatment, there was an improvement in the visual acuity of the right eye to 0.4 but no improvement of vision was observed in the left eye. On 16th day after treatment, the visual acuity was 0.7 in the right eye and counting fingers in the left eye. At 2 months after ingestion, the visual acuity of the right eye returned to 1.0 with no improvement in the left eye. Optic disc pallor was suspected and P100 delay was observed in the left eye with VEP showing a favorable outcome in the right eye. CONCLUSIONS: A visual improvement of 1 eye was observed in methanol poisoning treated with intravenous methylprednisolone.

Although it is difficult to reach a diagnosis in patients who complain of pain or sensitivity to cold in their hands, Raynaud's phenomenon is most often suspected in such cases. Symptoms of Raynaud's phenomenon include pallor, cyanosis, and redness following cold exposure. Glomus tumors can also increase patients' sensitivity to cold. In this case, our patient complained of symptoms indicative of Raynaud's phenomenon. Although treatment of Raynaud's phenomenon improved the symptoms, pain persisted in the fourth finger of the left hand. We diagnosed the patient with a glomus tumor and, after surgical treatment, the patient's symptoms improved. Here, we have also reviewed and discussed a number of reports of glomus tumors associated with Raynaud's disease. Diagnosing a glomus tumor in the hand may take some time, and the diagnosis could be further delayed if accompanied by Raynaud's phenomenon. Although glomus tumors are rare, we suggest that clinical awareness is important for early diagnosis and treatment.

We present a case of pseudotumor. The patient was a 51 year old male, complaining of unilateral exophthalmos of the right eye for about 10 years. It was much aggravated during last a year. Past and family history were non-contributory. At the first examination on the 10th of May, 1971, the left eye was recorded normal. The right eye showed H.M./50cm. in vision, proptosis (18mm differenee in both eyes), limitation of ocular motility, exposure keratitis, and pallor disk in funduscopy. The skul X-ray showed a radiopaque density with enlarged orbital cavity but no evidence of bone estruction. The patient was admitted to our department on the 13th of May, 1971. on the seventh hospital day, a child fist sized firm tumor mass removed through anterior approach. The right eye had also enucleated. Groasly the mass had a gray color, partially discolorated and have alveolar structures. Microscopically lymphoid follicles were seperated by fibrous. occasionally hyalinized fibrous connective tissue. Also occasional hemorrhagic foci and infiltration of eosinophils were seen.

Clear cell acanthoma is a rare, benign, epidermal tumor. These tumors usually present as solitary lesions, often localized on the lower legs of middle aged or elderly individuals. Pigmented clear cell acanthoma, a variant of clear cell acanthoma, presents as macroscopically visible brown to black-colored, flat or dome-shaped, sharply-dermacated papules or nodules. Histopathologic findings in these tumors reveal markedly epidermal hyperplasia, with exception of the cells in the basal layer. Also, most of the epithelium showed pallor and slight enlargement. With these pigmented type tumors, dermal melanophages are often noticeable on low-power magnification, plus increased melanocytes with melanin granules in the epidermis. A 41-year-old man presented with a 7-year history of a 1.2x0.8cm sized, black plaque on the right inner thigh. The histologic findings revealed the typical features of pigmented clear cell acanthoma.
