Kaposi's sarcoma of the lower extremity as the first sign of AIDS.

The authors review four cases of Kaposi's sarcoma that were presented to the Foot Clinics of New York and affiliated North General Hospital during a 1-year period from the fall of 1987 to the fall of 1988. The authors conclude that it is sometimes difficult to diagnose Kaposi's sarcoma and to differentiate between the acquired immunodeficiency (AIDS) form and the classic form. Guidelines for diagnosis and a profile of the AIDS-related and non-AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma patient are discussed.

Acetaminophen overdose: a growing health care hazard.

Clinical reports support acetylcysteine as an effective agent in the prevention of severe hepatic necrosis and mortality in acetaminophen toxicity [2, 8, 13]. The agent is safe and easily administered to the patient. Further studies are needed before acetylcysteine is considered the agent of choice in the management of acetaminophen overdosage in this country.

Speckled lentiginous nevus.

Speckled lentiginous nevus is, we feel, a distinctive nevocytic disorder and a clinical variety of nevus-cell nevus. The speckled areas show varying histological patterns that range from nevus incipiens to junctional and compound nevi. The background shows histological features of lentigo simplex. It is our contention that speckled lentiginous nevus should be separated from nevus spilus and nevus spilus tardus (Becker's), which we consider to be variants of epidermal nevus.
