Korean Journal of Dermatology 1988;26(2):189-199
A study was made on 1,302 cases of skin tumors which were obtained mainly from surgical pathology specimen during the period of 14 years from 1973 to 1986 at Department of Dermatology in Korea University Hospital. The results were summarized as follows : 1. Of the 1,302 cases of skin tumors, 1,143 cases(87.8%) were benigh tumor, 159 cases(12.2%) of malignant tumor and male to female ratio was 1.1: l. 2. Among the 1,143 cases of benign tumors, 301 cases of epidermal cyst, 183 cases of lipoma, 173 cases of pigmented nevi and 88 cases of hemangioma were noted. 3. Among the 159 cases of malignant tumors, 46 cases of squamous cell carcinoma, 27 cases of basal cell carcinoma, 26 cases of malignant melanoma, and 17 cases of metastatic carcinoma were observed. 4. The sites of predilection of the epidermal cysts were trunk (21.9%), face (20.9%), and neck (13.9%) and lipoma was trunk (48.6%). The sites of predilection of the suamous cell carcinomas were penis (11.1%), sclap (12.9%), face (18.5%), and leg (11.1%), basal cell carcinoma was face (55.6%) and malignant melanoma was sole (26.9%). 5. Among the 17 cases of cutaneous metastatic cancer, primary sites were breast (4 cases), pancreas (1 cases), lung (2 cases), stomach (1 cases) and unkown sites (9 cases).

We report a case of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis (EPF) with associated plantar lesions in a 45-year-old man. Exarnination of the skin disclosed an erythematous patch, approximstely 3 x 5cm, on the left cheek, which contained discrete and confluent pspulopustules and scaly circinated vesicular patch on the right foot. Histologic examination of a biopsy specirnen from the left cheek revealed the hair follicles and the sebaceous glands are infiltrated mainly by eosinophils and by some mononuclear and neutrophils. Histologic examination of a biopsy specimen from the right foot revealed a vesicle extending from the subcorneal portion to the lower epidermis, which was filled with neutrophils and a small number of eosinophils.

The anterior fusion became the popular measure in the treatment of the tuberculosis of the spine. We analysed the 208 cases of the tuberculosis of the spine (174 anterior fusion) who were treated at our department during the period of 1966 to 1973 and compared these results with that obtained during the period of 1957 to 1966. Following has been observed from this comparison. 1. Spine was the most common site in bone and joint tuberculosis (51.7%) but with decreasing tendency. And it was followed by hip, knee, ankle and sacroiliac joints of order. 2. Common age incidence was below 30 years (72.7%) and most common in below 5 years (20.7%). 3. Average duration of disease was 2 years and 2 months. This value was 6 months lower than in previous study. 4. The most common site was changed from lumbar to thoracic vertebrae. 5. The incidence of sinus, cold abscess formation decreased but paraplegia increased in incedence due to high prevalence in thoracic vertebrae. 6. Anterior fusion was performed in 86.1% of the cases. 7. Postoperative complications was found in 17.2%. Adequate rnanagement of chest tube in thoracic areas and blood vessels in lumbosacral areas may be necessary.

Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome is an X-linked disorder characterized by recurrent infection, thrombocypenia and eczema. Various defects in cell-mediated immunity and deficient antibody reponse to carbohydrate antigens have been described. We experienced a case of Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome of 28 months old male patient. He has been suffered from multiple petechiae with bleeding, recurrent pyogenic infections and generalized eczema since 3 months of age. Immunological abnormalities are as follows: 1) Serum IgM was gradually decreased, while IgA and IgE were increased. 2) Antibody response against polysaccharide antigen (PRP) was not observed after 3 times of PRPT immunization. 3) CD4/CD8 ratio was reversed (0.6). 4) Proliferative response of mononuclear cells was significantly reduced, and CMI skin test also showed negative results. A brief review of literature was made.

Vertigo mimicking labyrinthine lesions may have resulted from ischemic insult to the inner ear or the vestibular nerve and nucleus in the AICA infarction syndrome. A 56-year-old female was admitted to the emergency room with vertigo and hearing loss in right ear. On neurological examination, she had left beating jerky torsional and horizontal nystagmus with falling and past pointing to right side. Brain magnetic resonance images showed high signal intensity in anterolateral portion of inferior pons on T2- weighted images. Severe right facial palsy of peripheral type developed 24 hours after admission. Audiometry and electronystagmography documented absent auditory and vestibular function on the affected side. We argue that vertigo of the acute infarction in AICA territory can be involved the eight and seventh nerve root entry zoon and mimic labyrinthine lesions

BACKGROUND: Estrogen deficiency accelerates loss of bone mass and changes lipid profile in the postmenopausal women, so that the osteoporosis and astherosclerosis were developed. But it has not enough studies including the premenopausal women. So we have investigated about the differences of body mass index(BMI), lipid profile and bone mineral density (BMD) with pre- and postmenopausal women. METHODS: We have evaluated 201 premenopausal women and 322 postmenopausal women out of total 651 who had visited Health Screening Center in the hospital of Eul-Ji Medical College from November, 1995 to July, 1996. RESULTS: The mean age of total subjects, premenopausal women, postmenopausal women were 51.9, 43.9, 56.8 years, respectively. The mean period after menopause was 8.1 years. Significant difference was seen in BMI, lipid profile and BMD according to age and menopause(P<0.01). BMI was related to lipid profile(P<0.01), but not to BMD(P>0.1). In postmenopausal women BMI, BMD and lipid profile were related to postmenopausal period (P<0.05). In viewing their correlations BMD had strong adverse correlations with factors such as age, menopause, and postmenopausal period. Lipid profile had weak positive correlations with factors such as age, menopause, BMI(P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The lipid profile are related to factors such as age, BMI, menopause, and postmenopausal period. The BMD is related to above factors except BMI. Prospective study is needed to evaluate the influence of estrogen on BMD and lipid metabolism. Thus, it helps to the prevention and treatment of the osteoporosis and hyperlipidemia in the postmenopausal women.
