Erythema infectiosum ("slapped cheeks" syndrome): a little-known entity.

Erythema infectiosum is an uncommon, benign, self-limited disease with a distinctive clinical picture, occurring mainly in children. An inquiry showed that most doctors who deal with children are not familiar with it, and the disease is therefore seldom diagnosed. As recognition has connotations which may sometimes be important, the disease is briefly reviewed, and three cases are reported.

Child, Preschool

Peripilar keratin casts in boys.

Peripilar keratin casts are reported in three boys. All previous reports of peripilar keratin casts in children have apparently been in girls.

Adolescent

Euryblepharon.

The rare congenital anomaly of euryblepharon is reported in a male infant. It is suggested that euryblepharon is due to congenital hypoplasia or absence of the palpebral and lacrimal portions of the orbicularis oculi muscle.
