Many sensitizing chemicals and additives are used in manifacturing and mending dentures. Among them, phtolyldiethanolamine, a kind of accelerto for polymerization, is necessary only in self-curing acrylic resins which are available for repairing and relining of denture. Although the sotirce of denture stomatitis is still controversial, a true allergy to denture base materials can be recognized by a patch test. We report a case of allergic contact stomatitis due to dentn e relining materials in a 65-year-old denturecariying edentulous patient. Patch testievi.aled positive reaction to polyldiethanolamine which is considerd to be contained in a cold curing acrylic resin fluid.

AFX is a fibrohistiocytic tumor which usually shows benign clinical rocess despite malignant histolgy. We report a case of AFX showing storiform pattern distribution of tumor cells which developed on the right temple area of a 70-year-old woman.

Electron microscopy (EM) can provide a valuable contribution to light microscopy (LM) in the interpretation of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) specimen, especially in the diagnosis of the tumor. However, considerable care in processing the specimen is mandatory to recover the cells and avoid altering the fine structures. We experienced a case of malignant melanoma in 33-yrs-old female, diagnosed by EM study of FNAC specimen from the axillary mass, who was initially thought as dissem- inated carcinomatosis on LM study. The technique of EM study on FNAC specimen consisted of washing the needle and syringe in 2.5% glutaraldehyde after a rapid stain (Diff-Quik), which was used to obtain a preliminary diagnostic impression and to assure the adequacy of the EM specimen. After centrifugation in the steps of fixation and dehydration, the sediment was made into an epon block and examined. The whole processing time of EM study can be shortened within 7 or 8 hours, and results can be available within 48 to 72 hours. Our experience suggests the EM study on FNAC can be a useful diagnostic method in the diagnosis of difficult FNAC cases.
