LICHENIASIS 



L. disseminatus, a variety in which the lesions are 

 irregularly scattered over the body. L. ferox or L. 

 ferus. See L. agrius. L.gyratus. See Seborrhea eor- 

 L. haemorrhagicus, a petechial papular erup- 

 tion. L. inveterata, a chronic intractable form, with 

 marked thickening of the skin. L. lividus, a severe 

 form of purpura in which hemorrhage occurs into the 

 lesions around the follicles. L. menti. See Sycosis. 

 L. obtusus, Lichen ruber obtusus ; a variety of L. 

 planus in which the lesion consists of medium-sized 

 papules, bemispherically formed, flattened on the top, 

 and marked in the center by a fine indentation, 

 hard, dry, -1 th, wax-like, translucent to brownish- 

 red, and scaleless. The disease is less acute than /.. 

 acutninatus, itches less, and is mostly circumscribed. 

 The hair and nails never suffer. L. pilaris, Lichen 

 spinulosis; Lichen spinosus; an inflammatory disease 

 of the hair follicles, in which a spinous epidermic peg 

 upies the center of the papule. It is a rather rare 

 disease and occurs mostly in children. The papules 

 appear in crops, each one being the size of a pin's 

 head, red, conic, and containing in its center a horny 

 spine that projects about one-sixteenth of an inch. 

 ["here is little or no itching. See also Keratosis 

 pilaris. L. planus, Lichen ruber planus : Lichen 

 psoriasis; an inflammatory skin-disease, with an erup- 

 tion made up of papules that are broad and angular at 

 the base, flat and apparently glazed on the summit, 

 slightly umbilicated, and of a dull purplish-red color. 

 These lesionsare usually symmetrically disposed, and are 

 generally situated on the flexor surfaces of the forearms, 

 about the wrists, the Hanks, around the waist, and the 

 knees, and calves, and alsoonthe mucous membranes. 

 The papules may be discrete or may coalesce, and itch- 

 ing may be slight oi severe. L. planus verrucosus, a 

 late stage of L. planus, characterized by wart-like en- 

 largements of the papillae, which are covered with dense 

 homy crusts of a dirty-lilac hue. They are usually seen 

 on the lower part of the leg. L. psoriasis. See L. 

 pi, in us. L. ruber, Lichen ruber acuminafus ; a 

 very rare skin-disease, with lesions consisting, in the 

 beginning, of discrete, miliary, conic papules, but, as 

 the disease advances, becoming aggregated and form- 

 ing continuous red, infiltrated, and scaling patches. 

 The whole surface may eventually become involved. 

 The nails of the fingers and toes become affected, be- 

 ing of a dirty-brown color, rough, flaky, and breaking 

 off short. The etiology and pathology of this 

 condition are obscure. L. ruber acuminatus. 

 See Pityriasis rubra pilaris and Lichen ruber. L. 

 ruber moniliformis, a rare variety in which, besides 

 the ordinary papules and plaques, there are thick 

 moniliform bands in the flexures of the limbs, on the 

 abdomen, and on the neck. L. ruber obtusus. See L. 

 obtusus. L. ruber planus. See L. planus. L. scrof- 

 ulosorum. See L. scrofulosus. L. scrofulosus, 

 L. scrofulosorum ; a form occurring in strumous chil- 

 dren. The eruption is situated on the trunk especially 

 upon the bark, either diffusely or in patches. The 



papule- are very small, pale, conn . and surmounted 

 by fine scales ; they cause no itching, and on fading 

 leave a rather persistent yellowish pigmentation.
