Acquired port-wine stain.

The development of a capillary hemangioma in adult life is an unusual event. These lesions normally occur as congenital cutaneous nevi. We describe the history and histologic findings in a man who developed such a lesion after a cricket ball injury to the right cheek at age 46 years. The literature on acquired port-wine stain is reviewed. Discussion is centered on whether there are factors predisposing to this response to injury and whether damage to autonomic nerves is important.

Tattoo removal using infra-red coagulation.

Using a radiation source from which the output is maximal in the near infra-red range, we have successfully treated thirty-six tattoos in twenty-one patients. This technique is described and its place in practice is discussed.

Dermatitis repens, Lapière and generalized pustular psoriasis.

The presence of subcorneal pustules in a solitary, indolent, crusted plaque, or in erythema annulare-like lesions with a trailing scale, is evidence of atypical psoriasis. When these lesions appear late in life there is a significant risk of generalized pustular psoriasis with a poor prognosis. A case is presented in whom both of these atypical forms occurred and who developed severe generalized disease. Clinical and histological features are described.

Multiple Beau's lines due to dysmenorrhoea?

Four young women who complained of nail ridging, were found to have several evenly spaced Beau's lines. The lines appear to be related to their menstrual cycles and each one had severe dysmenorrhoea. Linear nail growth was not impaired.
