REPORT OF A CASE

M. S., a chemist aged 36, consulted me on Nov. 2, 1941. About four weeks previously a pruritic scaly lesion had appeared on the nape of the neck. This was followed in about four days by lesions on the scalp and the body. Examination revealed a rounded somewhat edematous scaly lesion, the size of a quarter, on the nape of the neck within the hair line. Throughout the scalp were scattered about twelve to fifteen scaly papules, from the size of a pinhead to that of a small pea. On the trunk there were a moderate number of oval scaly macules following the lines of cleavage. The arms and thighs were free of lesions. The eruption was accompanied by moderate pruritus.
