A case of lupus miliaris desseminatus faciei, 23 year old male was reported. The multiple minute discrete yellowish brown superficial nodules, 2 to 3 mm in diameter, revealed apple-jelly color under diascopy without any subjective symptoms since June, 1971. The lesions affect lower eyelids, forehead, cheeks, malar region, upper lip, chin and nasolabial folds symmetrically. Histopathological findings revealed conglomerated individual tubercles with prominent central caseation necrosis. He was given 600mg of INH and 12 mg of PAS daily per os for 2 months. The eruptions were healed gradually with pitted scars.

Normal albino rats weighing 180-200 gm were used for a series of this investigation on change of skin mast cell under general and local anesthesia. At first, left side abdominal skin was prepared by hair cutting with scissors about 3cm square and eight irritations by mean of biting with tip of forceps mosquito were applied along the prepared skin margin. Skin specimens were submitted from central area which surrounded by irritated points and also from intact contra-lateral area in 15, 30, 60 and l20 minutes invervals. Submiitted skin specimens were fixed in 10% formalin solution, then were stained with 1% toluidine blue. The number of mast cell was counted under 450X of microscopic examination. CONCLUSION l. There were two stages in changes of skin tissue mast cell number on normal saline solution injected area and irritated area by mean of biting with tip of forceps without any types of anesthesia. i) Decreasing stage: Number of skin tissue mast cell was decreascd and reached to the lowest level at 30 minutes after each irritation. ii) Increasing stage: Number of skin tissue mast cell was increased to the highest level at 120 minutes after each irritation. 2. General ether anesthesia could not infIuence on the change of mast cell number after mechanical biting irritation. 3, Local anesthesia with 2% procaine hydrochloride solution revealed slightly suppressing effect to increasing number of mast cell at 60 and 120 minutes after mechanical irritation. Hnwever, it was not evidence at 15 and 30 minutes after mechanical irritation. 4. There was no significant change of rnast cell number in the intact contralateraI skin area within 120 minutes under gencral and local anesthesia. 5. The number of degranulated mast cells did not correlated with counted total number of mast cells.

Sebaceous carcinoma is an uncommon neoplasm usually associated with ocular adnexa. This malignancy may occur at any anatomic site that contains sebaceous glands. Despite the widespread anatomic distribution of sebaceous glands, extraocular sebaceous carcinoma occurs with far less frequency. We report a case of an 87-year-old Korean woman with extraocular sebaceous carcinoma treated with total excision.

Quality control survey was done on the plasma triglyceride determination of six laboratories and following results were obtained. 1) Coefficients of variation were less than 5% in 3 laboratories and over 10% in one laboratory. 2) High interlaboratory variation was inferred from the mean values ranging from 104.0~136. 4mg% (sample A) with enzyme method and 44.7~65.3 (Sample B) with acetylaceton method. 3) Establishment of normal plasma triglyceride level in Koreans and supervised quality control by the authority seemed to be urgent.

A 17 year old female with Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber Syndrome is presented. Of particular interest was presence of congenital heart anomaly. The nevus flarnmeus invoIved her entire right leg and foot with hypertrophy, elongation and partial ulecration. Elongation of the right leg Iead cornpensatory vertebral scoliosis (Fig.1,2). The cutaneous temperature of affected side was higher than the other side, and. was larger on somatometry and osteometry (Table 1). On auscultation, grade III systolic blowing murmur was heard on left upper sternal border with second heart sound splitting. Electrocardiograrn revealed complete right bundle branch block (Fig. 3). Chest X-ray revealed cardiomegaly, increase 3 hilar shadaws and rnild pulmonary congestion (Fig. 4). Above mentioned signs suggests strongly secundum type of atrial septal defect. Femoral angiography didnt show arteriovenous malformation (Fig. 5). Authors experienced this rare variant of Klippel-Trenaunzy-Weber Syndrome acco- mapanying with congenital heart anamaly, and report this with review of literatures.
