Folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma. A distinctive malformation of the skin.

Five examples of a distinctive sebaceous malformation, designated "folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma," form the basis of this study. Criteria are proposed for specific diagnosis of this hamartoma and for differentiation of it from sebaceous gland hyperplasia, steatocystoma, dermoid cyst of skin, and sebaceous trichofolliculoma.

Comparative findings between 111indium-labeled leukocytes and 67gallium scintigraphy for patients with acute and chronic inflammatory diseases.

The sensitivity and specificity for infectious foci for 111In-labeled leukocytes scintigraphy were 60.5%, 78.6%, and those for 67Ga scintigraphy were 94.

[A case of anisosynchronously duplicated tumors consisting of leiomyosarcoma of the rectum and malignant paraganglioma of gluteal soft tissue].

A 62-year-old man received a Miles' operation for the recurrence of low grade rectal leiomyosarcoma which had been enucleated 8 years earlier. The tumor, measuring 11 x 12 cm, was located in the lower rectal area (Rb) and had developed into the pelvic cavity. One year after operation, after the uncovery of a malignant paraganglioma in the right gluteal soft tissue, the patient died from the metastases of the liver and the lung, and from lymph node that covered his body.

Small pustules in Kawasaki disease. A clinicopathological study of four patients.

We report the clinical and histological changes of small pustules that developed in four patients with Kawasaki disease (KD). The small pustules were superimposed on the urticarial erythema and symmetrically arranged on the genital area, buttocks, axillae, and extensor surface of the extremities. These lesions showed spongiform pustules histologically and were different from miliarial pustules.
