[Dermatological findings in the annual examination of the patients with Yusho in 1989-1990].
We reported the skin symptoms of the patients with Yusho in the 1989 and 1990 annual examinations. We also studied the alteration of the skin symptoms in 33 patients followed up for 14 years (1977-1990). Most of these patients showed obvious improvement in their skin symptoms during 12 years (1977-1988). However, a remarkable improvement was not observed in recent 3 years and approximately 40% of the patients still had comedones and/or acneiform eruptions.
