  4. Tuberous Sclerosis

    show more
    Description: Tuberous sclerosis - hypopigmented lesion, confetti-like lesion An inherited disease characterized by hamartomas of the brain, retina, and viscera, as well as epileptic seizures, mental retardation, and skin nodules of the face. Also called Bourneville's disease.

  5. Plexiform Neurofibroma

    show more
    Description: Plexiform neurofibroma - note surgery scar over the lesion A type of neurofibroma manifesting as a diffuse overgrowth of subcutaneous tissue, usually involving the face, scalp, neck, and chest but occasionally occurring in the abdomen or pelvis. The tumors tend to progress, and may extend along nerve roots to eventually involve the spinal roots and spinal cord. This process is almost always a manifestation of neurofibromatosis.

  8. Norwegian Scabies

    show more
    Description: Norwegian Scabies (crusted scabies) - severe form of scabies A contagious cutaneous inflammation caused by the bite of the mite Sarcoptes Scabiei. It is characterized by pruritic papular eruptions and burrows and affects primarily the axillae, elbows, wrists, and genitalia, although it can spread to cover the entire body. Norwegian scabies is a severe form of scabies with innumerable mites in thickened stratum corneum; has been linked with cellular immune deficiencies, including AIDS.

  10. Varicella

    show more
    Description: Varicella - vesicle on an erythematous base over soft palate An acute, highly contagious, viral disease, with mild constitutional symptoms and a maculopapular vesicular skin eruption; it is a common childhood disease and is rarely severe, but it can be accompanied by severe symptoms in infants and adults. It is usually spread by either contact with blisters or droplet infection, and the average incubation period is 10 to 16 days. The period of contagion lasts about two weeks, beginning two days before the rash appears. The causative virus is human herpesvirus 3 (formerly known as varicella-zoster virus). The same virus also causes herpes zoster (shingles), with the differences in the two diseases probably reflecting differences in the response to the virus. Called also varicella.
