ON A CASE OF ERYTHEMA NODOSUM OF UNUSUAL COURSE AND ATYPICAL
LOCALISATION. EINIS. (_Derm. Zeitschr._, Bd. xi, Heft 7. p. 493.)
A little boy, aged 2-1/2 years, was brought up with four slightly raised
swellings, two, each as large as a half-crown, being situated
symmetrically on the cheeks, and two, each as large as a sixpence, on
the temples.
The history showed that exactly a year before the child had suffered
from a similar eruption on the lower legs, and the doctor who treated
the child for former attacks identified the eruption with the fresh one.
The peculiarity in the course showed itself in the access of colour and
pain in the nodes every day about noon, though there was no fever, and
the child seemed to be in very good health with the exception of a few
swollen sub-maxillary glands.
