Melanodérma

Melanodérma (Melasma, griech.; lat. Nigrities cutis), mehr oder weniger ausgedehnte schwärzliche Hautfärbung, tritt überall auf, wo längere Zeit eine Blutüberfüllung der Haut bestand, und erklärt sich durch Ablagerung von Blutfarbstoff in die Haut. Man findet das M. also z. B. bei Leuten, die lange Läufe oder Krätze hatten, an den Unterschenkeln infolge von wiederholter Entzündung der Haut durch Odem etc., besonders an den untern Extremitäten und im Gesicht alter Leute.
