    Notes: Two patients with Cowden disease, a syndrome consisting of cutaneous papules and nodules on the face, oral mucous membranes and dorsal aspects of the forearms and hands in association with tumours of the thyroid gland, breasts, gastro-intestinal tract, and female reproductive tract, are reported. This disease is important to the physician because recognition of these cutaneous lesions may allow early diagnosis of internal neoplasia.

    Notes: A patient with phytophotodermatitis secondary to topical application of lime juice for relief of pain from a recent marine sting is reported. The absence of pain over the entire lesion and the failure of the patient to develop immune specific antibodies to common local coelenterates aided in establishing the diagnosis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary We are presenting a 47-year-old woman who was stung by jellyfish while bathing in the sea of Thailand. Immediately after the injury she developed sharp pain and urticarial erythema of the skin of the knees accompanied by muscle cramps of the entire body. After a few days a toxic contact dermatitis with edematous swelling and ulcerations developed, which did not respond to topical antibiotics or corticosteroids. Three weeks later the patient presented with a disseminated urticarial eruption, which at first responded well to topical treatment and systemic corticosteroids. Over the next few weeks, however, a relapse of the eruption and the ulcerations occurred. Raised titres of IgG and IgM antibodies against different jellyfish from the Indian and Pacific Ocean were detected in the patient's serum by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Antibodies against bees (class 1) and wasps (class 4) were found by the radioallergosorbent test. The clinical features and the immunological findings led to the diagnosis of toxic and allergic contact dermatitis to jellyfish venom. First aid and secondary treatment of jellyfish injuries are suggested.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Wir berichten über eine 47jährige Patientin, die in Thailand beim Baden im Meer Verletzungen durch eine sogenannte Feuerqualle erlitt. An den betroffenen Hautarealen, an den Knien, traten unmittelbar stechende Schmerzen und urtikarielle Erytheme auf, begleitet von generalisierten Muskelkrämpfen. Nach einigen Tagen entwickelte sich eine toxische Kontaktdermatitis mit ödematöser Schwellung und Ulzerationen, die unter der Behandlung mit antibiotischen und glukokortikoidhaltigen Salben nicht abheilten. Drei Wochen später stellte sich die Patientin erstmals mit einem disseminierten urtikariellen Exanthem vor. Unter Lokaltherapie und der systemischen Gabe von Glukokortikoiden kam es zur Rückbildung des Exanthems, in der Folgezeit jedoch zu rezidivierenden Exanthemschüben und Ulzerationen an den Knien. Im Serum der Patientin wurden im ELISA stark erhöhte IgG- und zum Teil IgM-Antikörper-Titer gegen 9 überwiegend im Indischen und Pazifischen Ozean beheimatete Quallenarten gefunden. Im RAST wurde Klasse 1 gegen Bienen-, Klasse 4 gegen Wespengift nachgewiesen. Aufgrund der Klinik, des Verlaufs und der immunologischen Befunde stellten wir die Diagnose einer toxischen und allergischen Reaktion auf Quallenbestandteile. Sofortmaßnahmen und nachfolgende Behandlung von Quallenverletzungen werden tabellarisch dargestellt.

    Notes: Abstract Venoms and poisons of jellyfish and other marien animals can induce damage to the human nervous and circulatory systems. Clues to the pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of these lesions can be obtained from data of human envenomations and animal experimentation. Because many investigators are unaware that marine animal venoms have autonomic actions, this paper aims to elucidate the broad antagonistic or toxic effects these compounds have on the autonomic nervous system. Marine venoms can affect ion transport of particularly sodium and calcium, induce channels or pores in neural and muscular cellular membranes, alter intracellular membranes of organelles and release mediators of inflammation. The box jellyfish, particularlyChironex fleckeri, in the Indo-Pacific region, is the world's most venomous marine animal and is responsible for autonomic disorders in patients. The symptoms induced by these venoms are vasospasm, cardiac irregularities, peripheral neuropathy, aphonia, ophthalmic abnormalities and parasympathetic dysautonomia. Cases of Irukandji syndrome, caused by the jellyfishCarukia barnesi, have symptoms that mimic excessive catecholamine release. Coelenterate venoms can also target the myocardium, Purkinje fiber, A-V node or aortic ring. Actions on nerves, as well as skeletal, smooth or cardiac muscle occur. Recent studies indicate that the hepatic P-450 enzyme family may be injured by these compounds. The multiplicity of these venom activities means that a thorough understanding of the sting pathogenesis will be essential in devising effective therapies.

    Notes: Abstract Jellyfish produce clinical diseases in humans. Death from venom toxicity is more common than anaphylaxis. The main venom actions are on the cardiovascular, respiratory and renal systems and these agents may induce systemic symptoms accompanying their cutaneous lesions. Keloids, fat atrophy, gangrene, contractions, arthralgias, neuritis, hyperpigmentation, corneal ulcerations, vasospasm and post-envenomation herpes simplex or granuloma annulare may appear. Recurrent eruptions, distant-site eruptions, persistent lesions or urticaria can occur. Anaphylaxis is managed as usual and verapamil can counteract the cardiotoxin. Systemic analgesics outperform topical agents against the immediate painful sting which results from immediate intradermal stimuli. Few measures preventing nematocyst rupture from adherent tentacles are significantly effective clinically so tentacle removal should be delayed until the patient is stable.
