Exanthema

Hudutslag

Svensk definition

Sjukdomar med hudutslag och hudrodnader som framträdande symtom. I äldre tider fanns sex sjukdomstillstånd med likartade hudutslag beskrivna. De var numrerade i den ordning de beskrevs. Endast den fjärde (Dukes sjukdom), den femte (erythema infectiosum) och den sjätte (exanthema subitum; tredagarsfeber) lever kvar som tillfälliga synonymer i dagens terminologi.

Engelsk definition

Diseases in which skin eruptions or rashes are a prominent manifestation. Classically, six such diseases were described with similar rashes; they were numbered in the order in which they were reported. Only the fourth (Duke's disease), fifth (ERYTHEMA INFECTIOSUM), and sixth (EXANTHEMA SUBITUM) numeric designations survive as occasional synonyms in current terminology.
