- GIP is a rarely occurring disorder. There is only few literature from its first description. Authors observed the course of GIP in the case of a 54 year old female patient in the form of bilateral disseminated microfocal pulmonary shadows, increased reticular outline with associated respiratory insufficiency. Open fine needle pulmonary biopsy proved giant cell desquamative alveolitis with help of light- and electronmicroscopical and histochemical examinations. Although possibility of exogenic, inhalative factor or/and infectious origin arose in causing the disease, disposition from the patient's actual immunological status could had helped the evolution of the disease. This fact seemed to be supported by the histologically proven associated dermatitis purpurica pigmentosa (Schamberg disease). With methylprednisolon therapy full radiological recovery occurred, while Schamberg disease was little influenced by the above mentioned therapy. The patient is pulmonologically symptom-free and without complaint after 1 year without any steroid-medication.

- A sixty-year-old man, developed 2-5 mm sized, hyperemic, itchy papules, vesicles, erosions and crusts on hyperemic base on his chest, abdomen, back, gluteal region, and proximal sites of his upper and lower extremities. The direct and indirect immunoflurescence tests were negative. Histology revealed extensive acantholysis in the epidermis in the following forms: pemphigus vulgaris-like suprabasal acantholysis, Darier-like acantholytic dyskeratosis with corps ronds, Hailey-Hailey-like suprabasal clefts, and pemphigus foliaceus-like superficial acantholysis with spongiosis. Using systemic steroids, topical drying, and reepithelising therapy, the patient was cured. He was symptom-free the first, fourth, and thirteenth months after finishing steroid therapy. We review the literature and the new subdivision of the disease according to the histological and clinical features.

- According to histological records, a total of 74 patients were diagnosed with Bowen's disease (B.d.) between 1 January 1984 and 31 December 1993 at the Department of Dermatology of Kitasato University. There was slight female predominance (36 male, 38 female), and 73% of the patients were older than 60 years; the mean age was 66.8 years. Fifteen patients had multiple (two-five) lesions. In 13 patients, other benign skin lesions were also found. Arsenic exposure as etiologic factor could have been present in 2 cases. Only 3 patients had other associated malignant tumors, which does not confirm the paraneoplastic nature of B.d. One-fifth of the lesions were on sun-exposed areas (head, neck and hands). Although we excluded invasive carcinomas from our statistical study, we mention the 8 invasive carcinomas developing from B.d. in that period. Histopathological classification of B.d. is uncommon. Classifying our cases by Darier's histopathological classification, 63.3% of them belonged to the lenticular type. The malignant potential of different histopathological types of B.d. needs further investigation.
