An immunoelectrophoretic study of serum from patients with non-treated recently acquired syphilis (RAS) is made for the first time in our country. Increases in IgM and IgG fractions were detected; the increase of the former exceeded to the latter in patients with cutaneous symptomatic recently acquired syphilis (CSRAS) in comparison with those having mucous cutaneous symptomatic recently acquired syphilis (MCSRAS). IgG were increased in 100% of patients with this latter disease, although both fractions were increased in patients with latent recently acquired syphilis (LRAS).

A brief review of the prevalence of chromoblastomycosis in Latin America and specially, in our country is made. Seventy two patients who were clinically and epidemiologically diagnosed in the Havana province between 1963-1973 are studied, and epidemic variables of interest are analyzed. Hormodendrum pedrosoi was the prevalent pathogen. The creation of a national register for a better knowledge of the prevalence of this disease in our country is proposed. The training of mycologic dermatologist and their location in places in lack of this kind of specialist are suggested. The early diagnosis and treatment are emphasized.

Se presentan siete pacientes afectados de amiloidosis cutánea primitiva localizada, con breve revisión de la bibliografía actual. Se recomienda la radioterapia superficial para el alivio rápido de la sintomatología, debiendo continuarse con el empleo de ungüento corticoesteroideos. Se recomienda frente a una lesión pruriginosa, pigmentada de alguna evolución pensar en el amiloidosis cutánea localizada. Se piensa que esta dermatosis no es tan rara en el consultorio Dermatológico y sí a veces olvidada(AU)
