We report three new cases of neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis associated with induction chemotherapy which resolves two major points. First, because two of our patients had testicular carcinoma; this firmly establishes that NEH is not exclusively seen in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia or Hodgkin's lymphoma as previously reported. Second, because two of our patients did not receive cytarabine which has previously been suspected of being the causative agent, it is apparent that this disorder may be produced by more than one chemotherapeutic agent or combination of agents. The histologic features with a discussion of the spectrum of changes which may be seen are presented.

The age of non-domesticated primates has always been a question to the scientific investigator. This question was magnified in the early 1960's when primate research hit a new peak. Age development standards became necessary to conduct many projects demanding developmental information. This project utilized known aged Papio cynocephalus baboons. Skull, muzzle, long bone and tooth development measurements were taken on a linear growth program for five years. These data, when programed for the computer, gave a reliable regression curve age predictability of one month up to 40 months and a three month age predictability up to 72 months for P. cynocephalus. Data taken from known-aged animals not in the survey proved the reliability of the project.
