[Werner syndrome-like disease in 3 brothers. Differential diagnosis of progeria syndrome].

A report is given on a progeroid disease affecting three brothers, 11, 13, and 14 years old. The difficult differential diagnosis of such progeroid syndromes is discussed. The clinical signs were mostly consistent with Werner's syndrome. Since some of the symptoms of this disease were not present, probably because of the young age of the patients, this progeroid syndrome was classified as Werner syndrome-like. Electronmicroscopic findings of the patients skin showed changes of the blood vessels and nerves, which were until now not described in Werner's syndrome or other progerias. The latter findings may give some hints with regard to the pathogenesis of this disease.

[Surgical treatment of skin changes in cutis laxa (author's transl)].

Cutis laxa is an extremely rare genetic disorder of connective tissue. The striking dermatologic features are loose skin folds and skin laxity. Due to these folds the patients appear to be prematurely aged. Plastic surgery can improve these changes. This treatment is especially indicated in patients with the autosomal dominant type of cutis laxa where internal manifestations do not occur. We report the case of a seventeen years old boy with cutis laxa and surgical therapy.

[Naevus sebaceus Jadassohn and syringocystadenoma papilliferum. Epithelial hamartoma of the skin].

Harmartomas are tumor-like local deformations of tissue-parts. Thus tumors of epidermal appendages must be classified in this sense. Until now these deformations were also called "organoid nevus". In the present paper we report studies on the nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn and the syringocystadenoma papilliferum, especially with regard to the coincidence with other dermoepidermal changes. From 1955 to 1979 a total of 164 histological specimens were diagnosed as nevus sebaceus Jadassohn (NSJ) or syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) in the department of dermatology, University Hospital Hamburg. 134 were NSJ, 11 were SCAP and 19 were combinations of both tumors. The percentage of multiple deformations of all 164 organoid nevi were 24.
