Guest guest Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 Jo Ann, I would suggest 'peribuccal lesion.' It gets no Google hits, but 'peribuccal' by itself gets only just over 100 hits. I would call them 'cold sores around the mouth' colloquially, so I searched on lesion + " cold sore " and came up with hits such as: http://www.animated-teeth.com/cold_sores/t3_cold_sores_stages.htm HTH, Jo Ann Cahn wrote: > i know what it is, and yes it turns out to be herpes simplex type 1, > but when describing the initial signs in a case report, it is > repeatedly called an " eruption peribuccale " and nothing i can add to > eruption or vesicle sounds right and neither cold sore nor fever > blister get very many medline hits. what do AE (or BE) doctors call > them when they are not talking to patients? > > much thanks > -- > jo ann > > jacahn@... > joann@... > > > URL: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/medical_translation > > In case of any problem with this list, you can reach the moderator at > cgtradmed@..., or at cgtradmed@... > > To unsubscribe, please send an *empty* message to > medical_translation-UNSUBSCRIBE > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 5, 2002 Report Share Posted December 5, 2002 Jo Ann, it's a cold sore. Barbara http://www.skinsite.com/info_herpes_simplex.htm. Definition: Herpes simplex is commonly referred to as cold sores or fever blisters. It is a viral infection of the skin that may occur once or return again and again. This is because when the virus is cleared from the skin by the immune system it hides in the nerves and is never completely removed from the body. Herpes infections are very common. It is estimated that nine out of ten people have been exposed to herpes. Many people are infected and don't even know it. Unfortunately those who carry herpes can spread the disease without even knowing it. Herpes simplex begins as a group of small red bumps that blister. Sometimes this is preceded by itching and burning of the area. The blisters begin to dry up after a few days and form a yellow crust. The crust then falls off and the redness slowly goes away. The whole process takes about 10-14 days. Scars rarely form. Some people experience just some itching or burning in the area while most people have no symptoms at all.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2002 Report Share Posted December 12, 2002 much thanks to , , and Barbara (and Sharon and Marla, offlist) . I went with perioral lesions. peribuccal is a false cognate. I knew they were cold sores, but that's not what's used in journal terminology, according to medline. doctors and people don't really talk the same language! thanks jo ann-- jo ann New address: jacahn@... jodyc@...

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2002 Report Share Posted December 12, 2002 Jo Ann, When you want to check official terminology in English, there's nothing like the MeSH browser. This is the database of Medical Subject Headings used to index articles for Excerpta Medica and the U.S. National Library of Medicine. It is an excellent source for nomenclature. For cold sores, the MeSH browser gives us Herpes labialis as the preferred term and fever blister, cold sores, and labial herpes simplex as the entry terms. Herpes Labialis Tree Number C02.256.466.382.316 Tree Number C02.825.320.320 Tree Number C07.465.409.466 Tree Number C17.800.838.790.320.320 Annotation herpes simplex of the lips & nares; STOMATITIS, HERPETIC (oral cavity) is also available Scope Note Herpes simplex, caused by type 1 virus, primarily spread by oral secretions and usually occurring as a concomitant of fever. It may also develop in the absence of fever or prior illness. It commonly involves the facial region, especially the lips and the nares. (Dorland, 27th ed.)
