We describe a patient with sohtary plexiform neurofibroma in the dermis that involved small nerves but lacked the stigmata of generalized neurofibromatosis. None of the references cited, other than Enzinger and Weiss, differentiate between the subcutaneous form of plexiform neurofibroma which seems to originate from larger nerves and frequently involve viscera and have to date invariably been associated with tieurofibromatosis, and the dermal variant.Ê nzinger and Weiss describe no specific case of dermal plexiform neurofibroma associated with neurofibromatosis. One of us (D.A.E.) has observed this concurrence. The report of Loi and Massobrio and this case would seem to confirm the concept that the superficial form of plexiform neurofibroma involving small nerves in the dermis or subcutis is not necessarily pathognomonic for von Recklinghausen's disease. None the less, a complete dermatologic examinatioti and thorough personal and family history for von Recklinghausen's disease are warranted when patients demonstrate either a dermal or a subcutaneous plexiform neurofibroma.

It had a 10-year history, with an Mexico City, Mexico accelerated asymptomatic growth in the last 3 years. The patient's physical examination was completely normal with no lymphadenopathy. The chest and abdominal computerized Correspondence axial tomography (CAT) scan studies were normal. The lesion was widely excised. Shortly

This condition has distinctive clinical and histologic features and only rarely has been mentioned in the dermatologic literature. Objective: We sought to evaluate the clinical and histopathologic features. Methods: The clinicopathologic features in patients with localized lymphedema of the genital region were studied. Results: We identified 18 patients with localized lymphedema clinically presenting as large polypoid or verrucous lesions. The patients were 5 men and 13 women with a mean age of 46.5 years. Twelve patients were obese at diagnosis. Thirteen patients presented with tumors involving the vulva, 4 patients with tumors in the penis and scrotum, and 1 patient with scrotal and pubic lesions. Histologically, all cases showed marked dermal edema along with dilated lymphatic spaces, fibroplasia, and verrucous epidermal changes (papillomatous and hyperplastic epidermis). Limitations: Only 18 cases were included in our study. Conclusions: This condition is an uncommon and recently described entity that could potentially be clinically and histologically misdiagnosed as a neoplasm; thus, it needs to be included in the differential diagnosis of polypoid and verrucous skin tumors with extensive dermal edema and fibroplasia.

The tumor had begun as a small nodule approximately 5 Turkey years before, and had grown slowly with time. A small, superficial ulcer had appeared on Correspondence the lesion approximately 6 months previously, and slight bleeding had occasionally Mustafa Senol, MD occurred. The patient had no pain and no other complaint except bleeding. Dermatologic İnö nü University Turgut Ö zal examination revealed a violaceous, ulcerated, and bleeding tumoral lesion below the Medical Center mid-portion of the right costochondral line (Fig. 1). The tumor was a non-tender, Department of Dermatology hemispheric mass, approximately 3-4 cm in size, adherent to the epidermis, but movable 44300 Malatya Turkey on the underlying tissue. An incisional biopsy was performed with diagnoses of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans and desmoid tumor. Histopathologic examination revealed prominent blood-filled vascular spaces (Fig. 2) and clearly delimited cords, showing two types of cell (Fig. 3). The vascular spaces contained a periodic acid-Schiff (PAS)-positive, granular, eosinophilic material. There was no malignant transformation. The lesion was totally excised and primarily sutured.

Random mobility and chemokinetic responses of polymorphonuclear leucocytes were normal, and so were all locomotive responses of mononuclear phagocytes in patients with Turner's syndrome. A subclinical polymorphonuclear leucocyte chemotactic defect is suggested by these results, and a possible regulatory effect by a gene(s) in chromosome X (and Y) that must be present in a full double dose to preserve this function can be proposed. Control of polymorphonuclear leucocyte chemotaxis may represent yet another exception to the general rule of X-inactivation.
