Résumé
The relation of atopic dermatitis to various manifestations of ocular disease has been documented in the dermatologic literature. Several lines of evidence suggest that patients with atopic dermatitis have defective ceil-mediated immunity and decreased cellular hypersensitivity. In this paper, we presented two cases of atopic dermatitis developing ocular complication and abnormal immune response in vivo and in vitro during the course of atopic dermatitis.

Urticaria pigmentosa developed in twins at the age of 6 weeks. They have numerous round to oval shaped, discrete or confluent reddish brown colored macules over whole body surface and neither twin had vomiting, diarrhea, flushing or irritability. Their relatives are unaffected. Biopsy specimen of. back lesion showed. pooling of mast cells in the upper dermis, and electron microscopic examinattion revealed normal mast cells.

The clinical and mycological study was made with 38 cases of dermatophytoses in infants and preschoolers in dermatologic clinic of St. Pauls Hospital, Catholic Medical College, from September, 1982 to April, 1984. Following results are obtained: The incidence of dermatophytoses under the age 6 was 2. 2% among 1, 711 out- patients of the sarne age group. 2. The incidence of involving sites was the highest in tinea(T.) corporis(37. 2%) and T. faciale(37, 2%) and then T. capitis(18. 7g). In 0-under 2 groups, the highest incidence in T. corporis(54. 5%) and then T. faciale(3l. 8%.). In 4-under 5 group, the highest incidence in T. capitis(55. 6%). 3 Fungi cultured from their skin lesions were 36 strains belonging to 6 species. These were M. canis(55. 6%), T. rabrum(27. 8%), granular type of T.mentagrophyte(8.3%) and interdigital type of T. mentagrophyte(27. 8%), M gypseum (2.8%). and E. floccosum(2.8%) in order. 4. Arnong 1Q strains of T. rabrum, anthropophilic fungi, 8 strains(80. 0%) were frorn 0-under 2 age groups, E. floccosum, and interdigital type of T. mentagrophyte were also from 0-under 1 age group. Among ZO strains of M, canis, zoophilic fungi, 13 strains(65. 0%) were from the age groups of 2-under 5. Granular type of T. mentagrophytc, 2 among 3 strains were from 4-under 5 age group, 5. The incidence of causative fungi in each sites were as follows: In T. corporis, T. rubrum(50. O%), and M canis(18. 8%) in order. In T. faciale, M. canis(62. 5%), T. rabrum(12. 5%), T. mentagrophyte(12. 5%), and M. gypseum(6. 3%) in order. In T. capitis, all cultured fungi were M. canis

A 19-year-old man noticed a very slowly spreading erythematous macular lesion on his cheek when he was 5 years old. This asymptomatic and well circumscribed patch was covered with fine scales. He sought first medical attention at the age of 12 years and diagnosis was cutaneous tuberculosis was made by skin biopsy. Seven years after the second biopsy was made and it revealed a few spores within giant cells in the upper dermis. By mycologic study, it was identified as Paecilomyces lilacinus. The patient was put on the treatment of topical and oral antifungal agents. The skin lesion showed signs of improvement after 12 weeks of treatment.
