Korean Journal of Dermatology 1975;13(4):315-319
A cutaneous angiitis showing evidence of leukocytoclastic angiitis in a 17 year old girl is presented. The patient showed multiple pinhead to pea sized erythematoue papular lesions on both legs, right axillary region, left upper chest, palms and especially around the ankles, The lesions did not fade on diascopy and caused mild pruritus and were slightly tender. The lesions had been present for about six months. The definition, classification, pathogenesis and therapeutic aspects of cutan- eous angiitis are reviewd.

Korean Journal of Dermatology 1977;15(4):431-435
The effect of retinoic acid. on hyperkeratotic diseases and. Acne as being published. To confirm the effect of topical retinoic acid, vre subjected 50 patients with mild to severe Acne vulgaris of the face, The patients chosen were not previously treated. with any remedy at least for the past 2 weeks. Eudyna' cream or gel were applied. once or twice a day to the face keeping some distance from the mucous membrane. We checked the number of closed comedones, open comedones, papules, pustules and scara before the treatment and every week for 14 wks during the treatment, The result were as follows: l. 42 patients began to improve in 2 to 8 wks and markedly improved in 6 to 8 wks. 3 patients dropped out because of severe side effects. Very good: 13 patients(26%) Good: 14 patinets(28%) Satisfactory: 15 patients(80%) None: 5 patients(10%) 2. The side effects: Most of patients suffered from mild to severe erythema, scaling and buming sensation in 2 to 3 days after the initiation of application. In severe cases developed severe erythema, vesicles, pustules, edema and exudation within a week.

Korean Journal of Dermatology 1978;16(4):325-329
Gout is not very rare disorder in high economic countries and it is seldom observed in our country and is hard to find its report in Korean dermatologic literature. Gout is a disease of inbom metabolic and/or acquired form of the disease chara-cterized by hyperuricemia, tophaceous deposits of sodium urate and recurrent attacks of arthrit.is which dramatically responds to Colchine. A case of tophaceous gout in a 56 year old Korean male is reported. The patient showed pea to waInut size, yellowish tender subcutaneous masses on right great toe and both solee of 15 year duration which are adherented to the overIying skin. The hiatology of the lesion revealed variously sized, sharply demarcated aggregates of needle shaped urate crystals in bund.his and sheaves which are surrounded by fibrous connective tissue which are in tum surrounded by granulomatous infiltrate containing small round cells and foreign body glant cells. The urate crystals have a brownish color and are doubly refractile on polariscopic examination. The use of colchine, in a initial dose of 1mg foIIowed by 0. 5mg every hour for 6 hours. The patient failed to attend the clinic regularly and was lost for folIow up.

7.What Happened to Him Using the Freight Elevator: Fall from Height or Caught Between?.
Hyoung Joong KIM ; Joo Young NA
Korean Journal of Legal Medicine 2013;37(3):153-156
There has been an increase in the incidence of elevator-related accidents in the Republic of Korea. Every year, approximately 10~20 elevator-related fatalities are reported in the Republic of Korea. According to research from the United States, 'falls' were the most common cause of death, followed by 'caught in/between'. In such investigations, it is important to distinguish between the manners of death. Herein, we report an elevator-related fatality, which required careful forensic investigation to determine the cause of death. A thorough forensic autopsy and reinvestigation of the death scene by medical examiners were required to determine if the death was caused as a result of the deceased falling from from a height or being caught in between the elevator and the wall of building.

Korean Journal of Dermatology 1993;31(6):937-943
BACKGROUND: The number of nongonococcal urethritis(NGU) cases is exceeding more and more that of Gonorrhea in developeing nations and some of the developing countr es such as Korea. The best evidence for an etiologic role for Trichomonas Vaginalis is in nongonococcal urethritis. OBJECTIVE: We compared the effects of Tetracycline to Tetracycine and Metronidazole in the treatment of male patients with nongonococcal urethritis and wished to find out the incidence of Trichomon-as Vaginalis in male patients with nongonocaccal urethritis indirectly. METHOD: From January, ],989 to December, 1992, three hundred male patients with nongococcal urethritis(NGU) at the Venreal Disease Clinic of Choong-Ku Publi Health Center in Seoul were allocated randomly into one of two treatment regimens. and one hundred sixty eight patients were followed. RESULTS: Eighty(83.4%) of ninty six patients treated with Tetrac; cline, 500mg, PO, q.i.d. for 14 days were cured. Sixty two(86.2%) of seventy two patients treatec with Tetracycline, 500mg, PO, q.i. d. for 14 days and Metronidaole. 2.0gm, PO, for 1 day were cured. There is no significant different between the 2 groups in treated rates(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: It suggests that male patients with nongonococcal ure1hritis due to trichomoniasis are rare in Korea. This may be die to the fact that the incidence of trichorioniasis has been declining since the 1960s. It also suggests not only the need for further studies on tool is disease but also more studies on other causes of nongonocoqeal urethritis, its treatment and epidernio.ogical study.

A 26 year old female presented complaining of a pea-sized nodule on her left lower eyelid for 10 years duration. Histopathological study showed several cysts in the dermis surrounded by secretory cells. The cysts were filled with decapitatory secretions. Positive staining with carcinoembrynic an tigen(CEA) was detected by immunoperoxidase technique. These clinical and histopathological findings suggest apocrine hidrocystoma developed on the left lower eyelid.

Mullerian adenosarcoma is an uncommon variant of MQllerian mixed tumors of the uterus and a mixed, biphasic neoplasia in which the mesenchymal component is malignant and the epithelial component is benign. In contrast to typical malignant Miillerian mixed tumor(MMMT), Miillerian adenosarcomas are usually tumors of low malignant potential. These tumom usually present as pedunculated endometrial masses in postmenopausal women with vaginal bleeding. We experienced a case of Miillerian adenosarcoma of the uterus with squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix and report with a brief review of literatures.
