Trichilemmoma.

Trichilemmoma is an uncommon cutaneous neoplasm that originates in the outer hair sheath. We are reporting two cases, one of lobular pattern, the other a massing of cells of the follicular infundibulum. In each case, the clinical appearance was nonspecific and the mistaken clinical diagnosis was basal-cell carcinoma.

Trichomycosis pubis.

Trichomycosis is a bacterial infection of hair that involves the axilla and, uncommonly, the pubis. The causative agent of trichomycosis pubis is probably the same as that in trichomycosis axillaris, as determined by culture and electron microscopy. We believe that increased awareness of trichomycosis pubis will show it to be common in certain environments.

Baroreflex control of coronary conductance in normotensive and renal hypertensive conscious dogs with complete heart block.

1. The autonomic and local control of the circumflex coronary bed evoked through acute rises in aortic pressure (aortic balloon inflation) was analysed in conscious, normotensive and hypertensive dogs in complete heart block with ventricles paced at 100 beats/min. 2. In normotensive dogs there was an initial rise (6-12 s) in circumflex conductance preceding a fall in conductance as aortic pressure increased and was sustained. The initial rise, but not the later fall, in circumflex conductance was partly due to a cholinoreceptor and partly due to alpha-adrenoreceptor mechanisms. Local constrictor mechanisms were responsible for the later fall in conductance. 3. The initial cholinoreceptor component of the rise in circumflex conductance is initiated through arterial baroreflex mechanisms. 4. The initial autonomic mechanisms regulating circumflex conductance appear to be absent in renal hypertension. 5. The absence of the transient autonomic rise in circumflex flow and conductance in response to rapid elevations in aortic pressure in certain forms of hypertension, e.g; during tachyarrhythmias and behavioural disturbances, may result in myocardial ischaemia when it is least appropriate.
