Scutulum
A scutulum is a yellow, perifollicular, saucerlike or cup-shaped crust with a cheesy odor, composed of dense mats of mycelia and epithelial debris. Scutula often occur on the scalp and are characteristic of favus.[1]
Morphology
- Consists of a crust-like yellow lesion (sulphur cap)
- Has a concave-convex surface with its convexity to the scalp making for itself an erosion or depression of epidermis, so it is firmly adherent to the scalp
- Upon detachment it gives a serosangiunous discharge (serum and blood)
- size : from a few millimetres to a few centimetres

gollark: I've never used it so it might be bad.
gollark: You *can* do that locally. There's software for it.
gollark: I vaguely remember reading that people just got rid of drives with bad sectors, since usually they would soon develop more bad sectors.
