Effect of freezing the helix and the rim or edge of the human and pig ear.

We have studied the effect of increasing freeze times on the normal pig's ear and on a variety of lesions of the human ear. The clinical and laboratory data suggest that cartilage necrosis secondary to cryosurgery is a dose-related phenomenon and is uncommon with the freeze times used in clinical practice. Cryosurgery is an effective and cosmetically acceptable treatment for superficial skin lesions of the ear.

The efficacy of an aromatic retinoid, Tigason (etretinate), in the treatment of Darier's disease.

Eighteen patients with Darier's disease were treated for at least 3 months with the oral aromatic retinoid Tigason (etretinate, Ro 10-9359). Seventeen of the 18 patients improved but adverse effects were seen in all patients, and were particularly severe in 6. No haematological or biochemical abnormalities were detected during treatment. We conclude that Tigason is an important advance in the treatment of Darier's disease but adverse effects restrict its use in some patients.
