Observations on the cytological diagnosis of an infectious erythema

PMCID: PMC480554  PMID: 13936829

Abstract

The clinical features of an infectious erythema which affected children and young people are described. Other writers have described the same disease and have suggested a viral origin. A cytological method is described which may establish the diagnosis, and the cytological appearances might also be useful in differentiating between erythema and measles.
