Preauricular adenopathy may be a component of "occuloglandular fevers" resulting from adenoviral conjunctivitis, sarcoidosis,tularemia,cat-scratch disease, and other processes.

Posterior auricular or posterior cervical adenopathy frequently reflects infections of the scalp but may also be prominent in systemic processes, such as rubella or toxoplasmosis.

This blog aims at making medical students and docs understand how every case is exactly the same as in books. The work done by senior docs over the years is really rewarding. Infact when one finds a contrast in what is taught, he should go to books and you will find the exact descriptions verbatim, or the images as they are explained in medical books.

scalp hemangioma

although seen occasionally in newborns, its a matter of concern when some of them ulcerate, bleed or grow in size, sometimes called as malformations.. when grow in size they are better called as tumors that may need excision on priority.

scalp is an uncommon siet for hemangiomas. strawberry hemangiomas like this are usually at multiple sites. canvernous hemangiomas usally have colour matching with surrounding tissue, but swelling and spongy feeling is obvious.

IUGR and fetal malnutrition

Newborn babies with IUGR often appear thin, pale, and have loose, dry skin. The umbilical cord is often thin and dull-looking rather than shiny and fat. Babies with IUGR sometimes have a wide-eyed look. Some babies do not have this malnourished appearance but are small all-over.1

In FM, the subcutaneous tissues and underlying muscles are diminished and the skin of arms, legs, elbows, knees and interscapular regions is very loose. In severe FM, the neonate may look “emaciated” or “marasmic” as the skin appears “several sizes” too large for the baby.2

such horizontal peeling skin lines are very often seen in IUGR babies and that reflects the growth failure especially in the third trimester.

rheumatic nodules

rheumatic nodules: one of the rare manifestations of rheumatic fever a major sign of acute rheumatic fever. the swelling on forearm and back are easy to make out. this was a 10 yr old boy with mitral regurgitation with acute rheumatic fever. for our surprise this child also had chorea , carditis joint pains and rheumatic nodules. may be we were not that expert to pick up the transient erythema marginatum.



rheumatic nodules can come in crops, various sizes rounded subcutaneus bulges on extensor aspects of body. This patient had them even on scalp and forehead. Although they range from sizes 1 cm to 10 cm in diameter; even they may be just solitary, however this patient had more than 50 nodules.



These theumatic nodules disappeared in 10-15 days after treatment along with settling of clinical features.
