BACKGROUND: Although several kinds of treatment methods(destructive therapy, immunotherapy, etc) for plane warts have been attempted but there have been no entirely satisfactory treatments, because the plane wants are seen to recur frequently. OBJECTIVE: This study was aimed to evaluate the combination therapy of griseofulvin and immunotherapy(dinitrochlorobenzene=DNCB, diphenylcycloprope none=DPCP) on plane warts. METHOD: Sixteen patients(age range, 9 to 41; mean age, 21.8 years) with VPJ were treated with the combination therapy with griseofulvin(500mg/day) and single contact immunotherapy(DNCB or DPCP).

We describe an 18-year-old male with generalized pruritic, tense annular or polycyalic blistera on normal-appearing skin or erythematous bases. Histopathological fmdings of an iatact early blistering showed subepidermal blistering and papillary neutrophilic gnicroabscesses. A direct immunofluctescent study of a section from the skin adjacent to a lesioti revealed linear deposits of IgA at the dermoepidermal junction. There were no deposits of IgG, lgM, or C3. In 1.0M NaC1 eplit skin, IgA was found to be bound linearly on the epidermal roof. The patient respmded weIl to eteroid and dapsone therapy.

BACKGROUND: Cancer that tends to metastasize to other internal organs also involves the skin with various clinical features. OBJECTIVE: We studied the clinical and histopathological findings of metastatic skin cancer and primary lung cancer. METHODS: We reviewed the clinical features and histopathological findings in 7 patients with metastatic skin cancer from the lung cancer. We performed routine hematoxylin-eosin stain and immunohistochemical staining with monoclonal antibody to cytokeratin, neuron specific enolase, S-100, leukocyte common antigen, and epithelial membrane antigen using the formalin-fixed paraffin embedded skin tissue of cutaneous metastatic and primary lung cancer. RESULTS: All patients are men ranging from 44 to 72 years in age(mean, 63.0 years). Cutaneous lesions were nodule, tumor, and sclerotic plaque. Skin lesions appeared on all parts of body. The neck, chest, and scalp were the most common locations of metastases. Pathologic findings were squamous cell carcinoma in 5 patients, adenosquamous cell carcinoma in 2 patients. We found some different immunophenotypes in cutaneous metastatic lesion and lung cancer. Mean survival time from the diagnosis of lung cancer was 10.4 months, and 8.4 months from the diagnosis of skin metastasis. CONCLUSION: We conclude that patients with cutaneous metastasis of lung cancer reflect progressive, terminal stage, and poor prognosis of the disease.
