An 8-year-old girl had a rice sized erythematous nodule secreting mucoid fluid situated above the right sternoclavicular joint area since birth. Histopathological findings of the lesion revealed predominant mucous acini, serous acini, demilunes of mixed acini and excretory ducts in the deep dermis compatible with salivary gland. Electron microscopic findings revealed a lumen and serous cells containing serous granules and rough endoplasmic reticulurn. Recurrence has not been noted following total excision of the nodule.

Sensation is the key element that allows the fingertip to participate effectively in virtually all hand functions. Therefore, it is very important to restore sensation as well as well padded, durable skin coverage following severe fingertip injuries. Many ingenious operations have been described to provide the fingertip with sensate coverage. Among them, the innervated cross-finger flap, reported by Cohen et al. in 1983, is very effective and successful in reconstruction of severe fingertip injuries, We report five cases of severe fingertip injuries treated with innervated cross-finger flap. The results are as follows : 1. The level of sensory return and the functional result is excellent in those fingertips reconstructed with the innervated cross-finger flap. 2. Mean time for flap detachment is 16 days post operative and local anesthesis at outpatient department is sufficient. 3. Four of five treated patients achieved excellent sensibility with measurable two-point discrimination(mean 5.0 mm) and ability to recongnize textures and objects.

A 4-year-old boy has had a solitary sclerotic depressed plaque on the right anterior chest since birth. The histopathologic findings are consistent with morphea profunda: thickening, hyalinization, and homogenization of collagen bundles in the dermis and subcutaneous tissues, admixture with a prominent lymphocytic and plasma cell infiltrate, and sweat glands en-trapped between the thickened collagen bundles. We report a case of congenital solitary morphea profunda.

Purpose:
To assess the clinical outcomes of scleral buckling (SB) without subretinal fluid drainage (SRFD) on primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).
Methods:
The medical records of patients with RRD treated via SB without SRFD from March 2009 to Feb 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Cases with histories of previous intraocular surgery (except cataract removal) were excluded. The primary and final surgical success rates were the main outcome measures. Pre- and post-operative visual acuity and intraocular pressure (IOP), factors that might affect the surgical success rate, secondary operative procedures, re-operation rates, and complications were analyzed.
Results:
A total of 66 eyes of 66 patients were included. The mean patient age was 38.9 ± 18.6 years and the mean symptom duration 19.23 ± 25.14 days. The retinae were reattached after single surgeries on 57 eyes (success rate 86.36%); the final success rate was 100% after a second operation (when necessary). Of the nine eyes requiring additional surgery, seven required vitrectomy and two vitrectomy combined with buckle revision. The mean preoperative logMAR visual acuity of 0.578 ± 0.647 improved to 0.518 ± 0.512 at 1 month after surgery (p < 0.001) and to 0.262 ± 0.372 at the last follow-up visit (p < 0.001). The postoperative IOP was higher than the preoperative IOP at 3 months (p = 0.024).
Conclusions
Scleral buckling without SRFD used to treat primary RRD afforded a high reattachment rate (compared to those of previous reports employing vitrectomy or scleral buckling with SRFD). Given the possible complications of SRFD, our method may be a safe and feasible surgical option, affording good results with few complications in patients with primary RRD.

A 55-year-old Korean female patient who presented with longitudinal black pigmentation affecting the right thumbnail is described. Direct microscopic examination of nail tissue in 15% potassium hydroxide and cultures on Sabourauds glucose agar revealed Candida species. Cardida species as a cause of longitudinal melanonychia has, to our knowledge, been described only once in the literature. Our case may be the second one.

Furfurol(Furfudol), a new anthelmintics, was administered to 7 adults and 21 children (6-12 years old) in total amounts of 15.6 mg(base) for 1 to 3 days. It has proven to be effective against hookworms. The anthelmintic effect against hookworms with a single dose of 15.6 mg of furfurol was similar to that of a single dose of 2.5 gm of bephenium hydroxynaphthoate. However, when a total of 15.6 mg of the base was given to both children and adult, the side reactions were so mild that the drug can be administered for therapeutic regimens in mass treatment. Minor abdominal discomfort was the only common side effect. This is the primary advantage of furfurol as compared with bephenium hydroxynaphthoate. These results have indicated that furfurol is safe in therapeutic dosage and is an effective agent to treat patients infected with hookworms.
