Cryoimmunoglobulin IgGk with microtubular ultrastructure associated with pyoderma gangrenosum.

Recurrent gangrenous leg ulcers were associated with a monoclonal IgGk cryoglobulinaemia, though without overt myeloma. Cryoprecipitation of the serum in vitro gave a reversible gel with microtubular structure, built from the monomer and with a high degree of order. The same structure was found distending the superficial vessels of the ulcer biopsy, as well as extravascularly. There was no vasculitis, and luminal obstruction appeared responsible for the ulceration. Microtubular structures occur in nature among diverse proteins and viruses. The protein studied here is similar to a reported instance of myeloma cryo-IgGk.

Morphology of Piedra hortal.

Piedra hortai, an ascomycete causing black piedra, was studied with light and electron microscopy. The nodule on the hair contains septate hyphae, asci and free ascospores, all of which were smaller than those previously reported. A mode of spread of infection is suggested.
