Papulosquamous dermatoses are a group of skin disorders characterized by scaling papules and plaques. Nodular ulcerative type is a frequently occurring type of basal cell carcinoma. Squamous cell carcinoma is a red-scaling, keratotic, slightly elevated lesion that later grows outward, with large ulcerations and crusts with raised, erythematous borders. Varicella (chickenpox) is caused by the varicella-zoster virus; characteristic skin lesion occurs in three stages: macule, vesicle, and granular scab.
