Werner's syndrome as a cause of chronic leg ulcers.

Werner's syndrome is believed to be an autosomal-recessive inherited disorder. Among other manifestations of premature aging, patients with Werner's syndrome frequently develop chronic leg ulcers that heal poorly. We present a patient who suffered from this rare syndrome and developed typical leg ulcers. We wish to alert physicians to this syndrome so that its attendant problems can be considered when treatments are being planned for patients with chronic leg ulcers.

A new technique for treating the exposed cardiac pacemaker wires in the supraclavicular region.

Exposure of pacemaker wires has become a common challenge in plastic surgery. Suggested techinques for dealing with this problem include removal and reintroduction of the entire pacemaker system or coverage with local flaps. We propose a new technique, which in addition to local flap coverage, eliminates the problem future pressure necrosis by placing the wires in the clavicle rather than about it.

Pedunculated malignant melanoma.

A malignant melanoma in the form of a pedunculated lesion is so rare that it may not be thought of in differential diagnosis and thus may be overlooked and undertreated.

Vitamin A and corticosteroid interaction in wound healing in rats.

The possible antagonistic interaction of vitamin A and corticosteroids in wound healing was studied in several groups of rats. Follow-up showed that hydrocortisone did not delay wound healing, whereas a long-acting preparation of 6 alpha-methylprednisolone (DEPO-MEDROL) suppressed spontaneous healing of open wounds. Topical application of vitamin A caused a further delay in healing, whereas systemic use of vitamin A had no consistent effect. Since no beneficial effect of vitamin A could be demonstrated, and in view of its possible toxicity, we recommend that the clinical use of vitamin A in wound treatment be reconsidered.
