We report one case of hair follicle nevus, benign highly differentiating appendageal skin tumor of hair follicle. It arises from pluripotential cells that have formed during life. This patient is a 40-year-old woman who had a localized brownish plaque on the leht cheek for three years. Histologic study revealed many small but mostly mature hair follicles consistent with hair follicle nevus.A Case of Cutaneous Periarteritis Nodosa

A 25-year-old female was seen because of rnultiple, asymptornatic papular eruptions on the vulvar area since 1 year ago. She had been suffered from palmar hyperhidrosis for 3 years. A skin biopsy specimen from the vulval lesion revealed characteristic findings of syringoma.

A 72 years old man had an 1 x 1cm sized, solitary glomus tumor on the right knee joint and had suffered from sharp, episodic pain and tenderness, radiating to the right thigh and the buttock for about 20 years. Simple surgical excision was performed for removal of the tumor mass and the subjective symtoms. There is no recurrence until now.

Although we made a comparision of fingertip dermatoglyphic patterns between R7 patients with atopic dermatitis(Femals: 54, Male: 35) and 73 their families without atopic dermatitis, no significant results were obtained. So, we compared secondly our results of 2 groups with those of two thousand nonatopic, normal Koreans, as control. Results are as follows: ] In comparison with control, a significant increase in the ulnar loop pattern was detected in families(p<0, ()5), not atopic dermatitis. p. No significant differ ence between right hands and left hands in all three g f OUpS. In atopic dermatitis and control groups, 1 st and 4 th digits showed mostly whorl pattern, and 3 rd and 5 th digits had more ulnar loop pattern than others. Rut families had mostly ulnar loop pattern at all digits except 4 th digit, wl..orl pattern. 4. Each of atopic dermatitis, family and control group had 13, 79% (whor1: 8. 05% ulnar loop: 5 75%), 15. 49p; (whorl: 4. 23%, ulnar loop: 11. 27%), 15. 78%(whorl: 8, 52% ulnar loop: 7. 1 %, arch: 0. 05%), of same dermatoglyphic pattern on all ten digits. Especially, ulnar loop pattern in fanilies was detected significantly higher than other two groups(p<0. 05). Average incidences of bilateral symmetry of pattern type between right and left digits were 78.57%, 74. 67% and 78.74% respectively in atopic dermatitis, family and control group.

Chronic dermatological problems associated with lower limb amputation sites include local maceration, intertrigo, blistering and ulceration, contact dermatitis, tissue atrophy, verrucous hyperplasia, lichenification, callosities, epidermoid cyst formation, and malignant neoplasia. A 60 year-old male was presented with a verrucous oozing eruption of the amputation stump of the left leg. He had been involved in a railroad logging accident 30 years before, resulting in the loss of the left lower limb. He were a below-knee prosthesis (patellar-tendon hearing). We diagnosed him as verrucous hyperplasia by clinical and histological findings and then referred him to the division of rehabilitation for a refitting of his prosthesis, after which his eruption cleared two months later.

We report a case of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma in a 40-year-old man. He has suffered from generalized pruritus for 10 years. Seven months ago, multiple nodules developed over the scalp, face, and thigh. The physical examination showed thickened dystrophic twenty nails with brownish discoloration and lichenified, eczematoid lesions over the trunk and extremities. The skin biopsy revealed diffuse, extensive infiltrates of atypical lymphoid cells in the dermis, which appeared as T lymphocytes by immuno-histochemistry; approximately 90% of the tumor cells were CD3-positive, 80% were CD4-positive, and 60% CD45RO-positive. Laboratory analyses in the peripheral bload showed 18% atypical lymphocytes (Sezary cell), an elevated LDH(746 U/liter), and abnormal lymphocyte subset proportions(ratio of Th/Ts is 4.08). A bone marrow puncture revealed the infiltrations of lymphoid cells and computed tamo-graphy showed no evidence of other organ involvement except the swelling of bilateral inguinal lymph nodes. Spontaneous partial regression of the tumors ensued on the way of oral antihistamines and topical corticosteroids for the relief of the pruritus. The tumorous skin lesions and onychodystrophy disappeared completely with 6 cycles of systemic chemotherapy of CHOP(cyclophosphamide, doxoru-bicin, vincristine, and prednisone).
