    Abstract:
    We reported on the skin symptoms of the patients with yusho in the 1987 and 1988 annual examinations. We also studied the alteration of the skin symptoms in the patients followed up for 20 years. These patients showed obvious improvement in their skin symptoms during these 20 years. However, about a half of the patients still had comedones and/or acneiform eruptions, although the number of eruptions had decreased. The cases with blood PCB pattern A (typical yusho pattern) demonstrated higher skin severity grading points than those of the other groups (patterns B and C), but even in these cases the skin eruptions had improved.
