Dr. J. J. PRINGLE Showed a case of _Lupus erythematosus associated with Raynaud’s disease_ in a highly neurotic woman, aged 44 years. The symptoms of Raynaud’s disease apparently first manifested themselves in 1895, but were first recognised as such in 1896. Associated with the typical phenomena of recurrent local syncope and asphyxia of the extremities, more especially of the hands, there were attacks of severe griping abdominal pain. The exact nature of these attacks had never been accurately determined, but there were evidences of some chronic intestinal obstruction, which could not, however, be located. The exhibitor had witnessed several occurrences of typical Raynaud symptoms in the hands, and the nutrition of all the fingers was impaired, their tips being stumpy and atrophied, but no gangrene had ensued. The first manifestations of Lupus erythematosus showed themselves in 1900, in the temporal regions and scalp. They were regarded as “gouty psoriasis,” and were treated by a physician professing the cult of homœopathy by repeated painting with pure oil of cade (!), under which they progressed rapidly, but in the wrong direction. She was also advised to winter in a high, cold, and dry locality, but she suffered terribly from this experience, which was carried out last winter in Switzerland. The Lupus erythematosus was of severe inflammatory type and occupied a great portion of the scalp, denuding it of hair, and giving rise to a large atrophic scar which was the seat of peculiarly obstinate recurrent attacks of suppuration, probably referable to a dirty toupet, worn for cosmetic purposes. Symmetrical patches were also present behind the ears, inside the pinnæ, and in the zygomatic regions, while there were present over the whole face a large number of telangiectatic spots averaging nearly the size of a pea. The nasal and buccal mucous membranes were healthy. The urine contained neither albumen nor blood-pigment, nor was there any history pointing towards hæmoglobinuria. The exhibitor asked the experience of members as to the value of treatment of such a condition by Finsen’s method, X-rays, and especially by high-frequency currents, which he was inclined to try as of possible value in both the associated conditions present. Dr. Pringle’s suggestion, that treatment by high-frequency currents afforded the best prospect of benefiting the patient, especially with regard to the Raynaud phenomena, was generally accepted. Dr. DORE was of opinion that the disease would thereby be considerably ameliorated and possibly even arrested, but the attitude of the majority of members present was somewhat sceptical. * * * * *
