    Notes: Three hundred and ninety five selected non-melanoma skin cancers were treated and followed up during the period 1981–1986, using a standardized cryosurgical technique. There was an overall cure rate of 97%. Recurrences were seen in 6 out of 225 (2.7%) treated basal cell carcinomas at a median time of 18 months, I of 34 (2.9%) squamous cell carcinomas, with a recurrence at 6 months post-operatively and I out of 128 (0.8%) of Bowen's tumours which recurred 6 months after treatment. The patients were treated as out-patients using local anaesthesia and all tolerated the treatment well.This study has shown that cryosurgery is a safe, low cost and effective method of treating selected non-melanoma skin cancer and produced excellent cosmetic results with a high cure rate. It is suggested that patients treated with cryosurgery are followed up carefully for 2 years post-operatively.

    Notes: Five cases of painful red hands', following chemotherapy for leukaemia, are reported. All the patients were women who had received treatment with cytosine arabinoside, 6-thioguanine and adriamycin. Several days after courses of chemotherapy, painful crythematous swelling of the palms and soles developed. In all cases the reaction was self-limiting and did not adversely affect their prognosis. Physicians should be aware of this reaction in order to reassure their patients. No treatment is required and the chemotherapy need not be stopped or altered.

    Notes: A patient with hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome is described. Recurrent cutaneous staphylococcal abscesses were a prominent feature and had been resistant to treatment with antibiotics and surgical drainage. Following a 4-month course of treatment with isotretinoin, he developed no further abscesses over a 6-month follow-up period. Detailed immunological investigations were undertaken before and after treatment and no change was found to account for his improvement. We consider that the beneficial effects of isotretinoin in this situation are likely to be due to a reduction in sebaceous gland size and activity, rather than to any effect on the underlying disorder.

    Notes: We present three patients who experienced late, severe bleeding from the superficial temporal artery (STA) following uncomplicated removal of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) from the temple. This is a common site for BCC and the risk of damage to the temporal branch of the facial nerve and the STA are well known. However, delayed bleeding as described in these individuals is potentially dangerous but poorly reported.

    Notes: Tear gas is used throughout the World for control of riots and civil disobedience. CS gas as used by the UK police force is issued as a ‘spray’ and is 5% CS in methylisobutylketone (MIBK), a potent irritant. Assaults on police officers in forces issued with CS spray have fallen significantly over the past 3 years, whilst having risen in areas without it. Thus, CS gas appears to be an effective deterrent. However, significant cutaneous reactions can occur as a result of exposure. We report a severe contact dermatitis to CS gas to highlight the clinical features. The nature of CS gas and potential cutaneous adverse reactions are discussed.

    Notes: Summary The need for chemoprophylaxis for bacterial endocarditis is partly dependent on the risk of bacteraemia associated with the procedure, which has not been adequately defined for skin surgery.The incidence of postoperative bacteraemia in 149 immunocompetent out-patients with noninfected lesions was 0.7% (95% CI 0.3–3.8%). Procedures included excisions. flaps, grafts and micrographically controlled surgery. Coagulase-negative staphylococcus was the most common skin isolate at the site of surgery, present in 68.5% of patients. The most effective chemoprophylaxis would be intravenous vancomycin, which is inconvenient and has an inherent risk of morbidity.Given the low incidence of bacteraemia and the disadvantages of the optimum chemoprophylaxis, surgery on non-infected lesions does not warrant prophylactic antibiotics to prevent the very low rosk of bacterial endocarditis.

    Notes: We report an 83-year-old woman with carcinoma erysipeloides due to an occult carcinoma. Immunohistochemical study of skin biopsies showed reactivity to S-100 protein and human milk fat globule antigen indicating that the tumour originated in the breast.

    Notes: We describe a patient who developed sebaceous carcinoma within a long-standing rhinophyma with rapid enlargement of the lesion. We believe the development of this tumour was a random occurrence but the possibility of tumour development should be considered in any rhinophyma showing a rapid increase in size.

    Notes: A case of toxic epidermal necrolysis is described. Management on an intensive care unit is considered essential for adequate monitoring, nursing and medical care. The need is stressed for early fluid and electrolyte replacement and the meeting of nutritional requirements. Other problems arising from the extreme fragility of the skin and its disordered function are discussed.
