Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and acute renal failure are well known cornplications of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria(PNH). 53 year old rnan was admitted to the hospital because of headache and gerleralized convulsion. Contrast enharlced CT scan revealed empty delta sign in superior sagital sinus and acute renal failure developed within 2 weeks of admissiorL The diagnosis of PNH depended on positive HAM test and low leukocyte alkaline phosphatase(LAP). The prognosis was relativley good on the treatrnent with anticoagulant, anticonvulsant, antiplatelets and steroid.

Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare and lethal skin cancer that mostly occurs in aged persons who are over 60 years old as a dome-shaped purple nodule on the sun-exposed areas of the head, neck and extremities. The mortality rate is high because this tumor has a propensity for local recurrence, regional lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis. Therefore, rapid and precise diagnosis and staging are critical to improve the prognosis. We reported here on a 68-year old man with Merkel cell carcinoma on his right cheek and he had regional cervical lymph node metastasis, as was detected by PET-CT scanning.

Schwannoma, also known as a neurilemmoma, is a benign neurogenic tumor that arises from Schwann cells of the nerve sheath. Usually, it occurs as a slowly-growing, well-circumscribed solitary nodule on the head and neck, trunk, or extremities. However, it is rare on the oral mucosa, especially on the lip. Histologically, the lesion is characterized by an encapsulated nodule that consists of Antoni A cellular tissues with verocay bodies, and Antoni B loose myxoid tissues. Herein, we report a case of a schwannoma of the upper lip, which is a rare location

BACKGROUND: As the number of dermatologic surgical procedures increases, home care wound management is growing in frequency. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and surgical site infection rate of home care wound management according to the use of oral antibiotics and the characteristics of the wound and of the patient. METHODS: Our study included 207 patients that had undergone a dermatologic surgical procedure and the subsequent management of their wounds in the home. We checked overall infection rate of home care wound management and compared the result according to the use of oral antibiotics. We evaluated surgical site infection rate after we classified each surgical wound based on age, sex, surgical method, site, size, and depth. In addition, we surveyed efficacy of home care wound management. RESULTS: Overall surgical site infection rate was 1.86%, and the infection rate was not significantly different between the group that utilized home care wound management without oral antibiotics and the group with oral antibiotics (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference of surgical site infection rate according to sex, age, wound's size and depth (p>0.05). However, patients with younger age, male sex, greater size, and depth of wounds showed a numerical increase in surgical site infection rate. Staged partial excision for nevus sebaceous in scalp showed significantly higher rate of surgical site infection (p<0.05). In our survey, most patients preferred home care wound management after dermatologic surgical procedures and patients were able to perform the wound care well. CONCLUSION: We expect to utilize home care wound management after dermatologic surgical procedures, provided that physicians appropriately educate patients and their caretakers on proper dressings.
