The authors performed clinical and mycological studies on Tinea cruris of 842 outpatients who had visited the dermatology clinic of Seoul National University Hospital from 1975 to 1979. 1) The incidence of Tinea cruris was 4.4% in maximum and 3.0% in minimum of the total superficial mycotic diseases cases, so there are no remarkable changes of the yearly prevalence rate. 2) Tinea cruris was more frequent among males, and the male cases were 15.2 times higher than those of female cases. 3) By the monthly distribution, Tinea cruris shows most high in summer season (June, July and August). 4) The age distribution group for Tinea cruris varied from the first to the eighth decade, but most of them were in their third decade. 5) Concurrent infection of Tinea cruris with other types of dermatophytoses(Tinea) was noted in 19.0% of the cases. Patients with Tinea cruris and Tinea pedis were most highly observed in 51.3%, and on next. Tinea cruris and Tinea corporis 25.6% in all of the concurrent infection cases. 6) The strains were identified by culture on ordinary Sabouraud's glucose agar media and abtained three species and 99 strains. a) Trichophyton rubrum was most common causative organism of Tinea cruris. Trichophyton rubrum was isolated 64 strains (64.6%). b) Trichophyton mentagrophytes was isolated 27 stains (27.3%) and Epidermophyton floccosum was 8 strains (8.1%).

This is a case report of invasive aspergillosis of the right maxillary antrum and the left lung in a 43 year-old male patient with diabetes mellitus and liver cirrhosis. The results were as follows. 1. Invasive aspergilliosis should be considered in compromised patients who have nasal symptomatology, infraorbital swelling and pain. 2. Invasive aspergillosis is a rapidly progressive mycotic infection of the sinus which may extend to the orbit, nasal cavity and cheek. 3. Surgical intervention is particularly urgent in orbital aspergillosis in patient in whom the eyesight is still preserved. 4. Diagnosis depends upon pathological demonstration of tissue invasion by organism with the typical morphology of aspergillus species. 5. Long-term antifungal drugs should be administrated postoperatively in pathint with invasive aspergillosis.

유경 대망이식술은 흉부 수술시에 효과적으로 사용되지만 수술 후 몇 가지 합병증을 일으킬 수 있다. 본 교실에서는 65세 남자 환자에서 유경 대망이식술 후 합병증으로 발생한 횡격막탈장 1례를 경험하여 보고한다. 환자는 진균성 하행흉부대동맥류의 대동맥 이식편성형술 시행 3개월 후 발생한 대동맥식도누공으로 흉부동맥류는 절제하고 상행흉부대동맥과 복부대동맥간에 우회술을 시행받고 식도누공을 봉합한 후 유경 대망판을 식도의 봉합부와 대동맥 단락부에 이식하였다. 수술 3년 뒤에 위가 횡격막으로 탈장된 것이 발견되었고 개흉술 실시하에 유경 대망판을 결찰하고 분리한 뒤 횡격막의 결손부위를 봉합하였다.

A 5 year-old male Throughbred horse housed in Korean Racing Association died after having enteritis and respiratory disorder for about 10 days. At necropsyi the left and right caudal lung lobes were reddenedi swolleni and contained numerous well-defined sublobular consolidated foci. The large intestine was diffusely reddened and covered with pseudomembranous exudates. Microscopicallyi multifocal areas of necrosis with mild to moderate infiltration of neutrophilsi macrophages and Iymphocytes as well as hemorrhage and edema were noted in the lung. The fungi having conidiophorei dome-shaped vesicles phialides and conidia which are characteristic of Apergillosis fumigatus was isolated from the lung. The colonic mucosa was transmurally necrotic and severe congestions edema and thrombi were observed in the submucosa. The embolic mycotic pneumonia present in this case Probably occured secondary to antibiotic therapy given for treatment of enteritis.

Tuberculous aneurysm of the aorta is exceedingly rare. To date, the standard therapy for mycotic aneurysm of the abdominal aorta has been surgery involving in-situ graft placement or extra-anatomic bypass surgery followed by effective anti-tuberculous medication. Only recently has the use of a stent graft in the treatment of tuberculous aortic aneurysm been described in the literature. We report two cases in which a tuberculous aneurysm of the abdominal aorta was successfully repaired using endovascular stent grafts. One case involved is a 42-year-old woman with a large suprarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm and a right psoas abscess, and the other, a 41-year-old man in whom an abdominal aortic aneurysm ruptured during surgical drainage of a psoas abscess.

습도가 높고 환기가 불량하며 비위생적인 우리에서 같이 사육한 두 마리의 어린 염소에서 발생한 진균성피부염의 일차원인이 Trichophyton mentagrophytes이었음을 보고하였다. 두 환축의 진단은 피부소파 시료에 KOH를 사용하여 균요소를 검출하고 3$0^{\circ}C$의 진균배지에서 순수배양하여 균을 분리하여 확인하였다. 한 마리는 안면에서 나머지 한 마리는 목과 귀에서 병변이 발견되었다. 같은 우리에서 사육 중이던 두 마리의 성축에서는 병변이 발견되지 않았다. 더욱이 염소의 주인과 주인가족들에서도 병변이 발견되지 않았다. 두 분리균주를 개량된 sunflower seed medium을 이용하여 유전적 교배실험을 한 결과 둘 다(-) mating type에 속했다. Hair performance test결과 두 균주는 모두 각질용해작용을 나타내었다. 공중위생학적인 중요성과 화학요법에 대해서도 고찰하였다. 감염경로에 대해서는 명확히 밝힐 수 없었다.

Purpose: An aneurysm is defined as a permanent, localized dilation of an artery with a 50% increase in diameter over its expected normal diameter. Aneurysms can be classified by cause as traumatic and nontraumatic. Traumatic aneurysms can be divided into true and false aneurysms. Nontraumatic causes of peripheral artery aneurysms include mycotic, atherosclerotic, inflammatory, and idiopathic. In the hand, true aneurysms occurring at the common digital artery have been rarely reported. We present a rare case of a true aneurysm of the common digital artery that was resected and reconstructed using a reversed vein graft. Methods: A 49-year-old male patient was refered to our institution with a $0.73{\times}0.44{\times}1.37cm$ sized pulsating mass between 2nd and 3rd flexor digitorum tendons on Lt. palm area. The mass had been present for 5 years and had increased in size over the previous year. No history of trauma was reported. After a physical examination and ultrasound sonography review, a diagnosis of aneurismal dilatation of common digital artery was made. Surgical treatment by excision of the aneurysm, and a reversed vein graft was performed. Results: Histologic examination of the specimen ($3.4{\times}0.7cm$) showed aneurismal dilatation, with elastin fibers present in the arterial wall. The lesions were healed without any complications and there were no evidence of recurrence. Doppler examination of the reconstruction showed good perfusion. Conclusion: Early excision is recommended to relieve symptoms and avoid neurologic damage. Also, artery reconstruction can be performed by primary end-to-end anastomosis or the placement of a reversed interposition vein graft. Micro surgical repair was the only possible treatment in this case. The authors believe that the vascular anatomy should always be restored as natural as possible.

Abstract Griseofulvin has been used as an antifungal antibiotic for the treatment of mycotic diseases of humans and veterinary animals. The purpose of this work was to identify a griseofulvin-producing endophytic fungus from Abies holophylla and evaluate its in vivo antifungal activity against plant pathogenic fungi. Based on nuclear ribosomal ITS1-5.8SITS2 sequence analysis, the fungus was identified and labeled as Xylaria sp. F0010. Two antifungal substances were purified from liquid cultures of Xylaria sp. F0010, and their chemical identities were determined to be griseofulvin and dechlorogriseofulvin through mass and NMR spectral analyses. Compared to dechlorogriseofulvin, griseofulvin showed high in vivo and in vitro antifungal activity, and effectively controlled the development of rice blast (Magnaporthe grisea), rice sheath blight (Corticium sasaki), wheat leaf rust (Puccinia recondita), and barley powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei), at doses of 50 to 150 ${\mu}$g/ml, depending on the disease. This is the first report on the production of griseofulvin and dechlorogriseofulvin by Xylaria species.
