[Donovanosis in Pará].

From 1954 to 1990 granuloma inguinale was diagnosed in 259 patients al the dermatology service of the Universidade Federal do Pará in Belém, Brazil. Among them, 56 cases had occurred in the twenty-year period 1954-1974 and as many as 133 cases were seen during the last five years only. Greater sexual liberty, poor social and economic conditions, and especially increasing homosexual behavior were implicated by the authors as chief determinants for this augmented incidence of the disease.

[Treatment of Lobo's disease with clofazimine (B 663)].

The author studies the three first cases of Lobo's mycosis treated with oral clofazimine. That is a curious tropical disease, which only occurs in neotropical region, particularly in the Brazilian Amazon. Without any known effective treatment, the mycosis has however responded well to clofazimine in the three cases, the results being significant regression of lesions by reabsorption of their content and disorganization of fungal structures.
