Koplik's Spots
Koplik's spots
are bluish-white spots seen on the buccal mucosa (
mucous membrane
of the inside of the cheek) and are
pathognomonic
of
measles
. They are named after
Henry Koplik
(1858-1927), an American
pediatrician
who first described them in 1896. They often appear a few days before the rash arrives and can be a useful sign to look for in children known to be exposed to the
measles virus
.
