1. What types of rashes have genetic transfer? - Correct Answer: Eczema,
psoriasis
2. Squamous cell carcinoma - Correct Answer: Also due to sun. Rapid
growing and invasive. Lesion is tender. Warty appearance, pink color.
3. Malignant carcinoma - Correct Answer: Irregular borders. Most deadly
skin cancer. Can arrive from prior moles that change shape/size. Genetic
predisposition. Asymmetrical.
4. Basal cell carcinoma - Correct Answer: Border raised above the center
or center is depressed compared to lesion. Slow growing. Starts as non-
healing sore often from sun exposure. Waxy/pearly appearance. Crusts over
in time.
5. Seborrehesis keratosis - Correct Answer: are pigmented, raised, warty
lesions, usually appearing on face or trunk.
6. Macule - Correct Answer: Flat, circumscribed with change in color less
than one centimeter such as a freckle or flat mole.
,7. Papule - Correct Answer: Solid circumscribed less than one centimeter
such as a wart.
8. Pustule - Correct Answer: Purulent filled lesion, such as impetigo,
folliculitis, or acne.
9. Nevi - Correct Answer: moles that vary in size and degree of
pigmentation
10.Nodule - Correct Answer: Elevated, firm, circumscribed area that is
deeper in the dermis and larger than papules such as lipoma.
11.Vesicle - Correct Answer: a fluid-filled and elevated, but superficial, skin
lesion.
12.Purpura - Correct Answer: is a condition of red or purple discolored
spots on the skin that do not blanch on applying pressure. The spots are
caused by bleeding underneath the skin usually secondary to vasculitis or
dietary deficiency of vitamin C (scurvy).[1] They measure 0.3-1 cm (3-10
mm), whereas petechiae measure less than 3 mm, and ecchymoses greater
than 1 cm.[2]
- Purpura is common with typhus and can be present with meningitis
caused by meningococci or septicaemia. In particular, meningococcus
(Neisseria meningitidis), a Gram-negative diplococcus organism, releases
endotoxin when it lyses. Endotoxin activates the Hageman factor
, (clotting factor XII), which causes disseminated intravascular coagulation
(DIC). The DIC is what appears as a rash on the affected individual.
13.Telangiectasis - Correct Answer: permanently dilated, small blood
vessels consisting of venules, capillaries, or arterioles.
14.Petechiae - Correct Answer: tiny, flat, purple or red spots on the skin
surface, resulting from minute hemorrhages within the dermal layer smaller
than 0.5 cm in diameter; DOES NOT BLANCH
15.Ecchymosis - Correct Answer: Nonraised skin discoloration caused by
the escape of blood into the tissues from ruptured blood vessels.
Ecchymoses can occur in mucous membranes (for example, in the mouth)
16.Vitiligo - Correct Answer: Vitiligo is a disease that causes the loss of skin
color in blotches. The extent and rate of color loss from vitiligo is
unpredictable. It can affect the skin on any part of your body. It may also
affect hair and the inside of the mouth.
17.Normally, the color of hair and skin is determined by melanin. Vitiligo
occurs when the cells that produce melanin die or stop functioning. Vitiligo
affects people of all skin types, but it may be more noticeable in people
with darker skin. The condition is not life-threatening or contagious. It can
be stressful or make you feel bad about yourself.
18.Lentigo - Correct Answer: A lentigo is a small, sharply circumscribed,
pigmented macule surrounded by normal-appearing skin. Histologic
