Abstract

Clowns have long delighted circus crowds and are celebrated not only in popular culture but also in the dermatology literature as medical eponyms. This contribution discusses four such eponyms: (1) clown nose-like lesion, (2) clown eczema (perioral dermatitis), (3) clown alopecia pattern in frontal fibrosing alopecia, and (4) clown's face of Brachman de Lange syndrome (Cornelia de Lange syndrome). This contribution also highlights the role of medical clowning in patient care by paying tribute to Cobo the Clown, also known as Barbara Joyce Cohen, who has served as a dedicated caring clown for more than 30 years.

摘要

小丑长期以来一直让马戏团观众感到愉悦，不仅在流行文化中备受赞誉，在皮肤科文献中也作为医学术语被提及。本文讨论了四个这样的术语：（1）小丑鼻样病变，（2）小丑湿疹（口周皮炎），（3）额部纤维性秃发中的小丑样脱发模式，以及（4）布勒曼-德朗热综合征（科妮莉亚·德朗热综合征）的小丑脸。本文还通过向小丑科博（又名芭芭拉·乔伊斯·科恩）致敬，强调了医疗小丑在患者护理中的作用，她作为一名敬业的关怀小丑已经服务了30多年。
