Abstract

The results of clinical treatment of a non-typical and specific skin disease are presented. The disease results from penetration of tiny glass needles into skin of the workers in a fluorescent lamp factory. The non-visible penetration of glass needles into skin is underlined and the possibility of applying radiological tests to detect these elements is discussed. The presence of glass needles in the skin, in various depths 10 or 15 years after penetration has been revealed by means of control tomograph tests.
