| subacute necrotizing encephalomyelopathy | A rare fatal disorder, primarily of children, being both acute and chronic in onset, manifested primarily as brainstem dysfunction, with ataxia, cranial nerve palsies, pseudobulbar palsy, hemi-or quadriplegia, mental deterioration, and involuntary movements; deficiencies of pyruvate dehydrogenase or cytochrome C oxydase have been found in some patients; pathologically, there is widespread symmetric necrosis involving much of the brainstem; these changes are similar to those seen with Wernicke encephalopathy.

| subacute necrotizing myelitis | A disorder of the lower spinal cord in adult males resulting in progressive paraplegia. Synonym: angiodysgenetic myelomalacia, Foix-Alajouanine myelitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subacute nephritis | Undesirable term for glomerulonephritis with proteinuria, haematuria and azotemia persisting for many weeks; renal changes are variable, including those of rapidly progressive and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. Synonym: subacute nephritis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subacute rheumatism | A mild but usually protracted form of acute rheumatic fever, often resistant to treatment. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subacute sclerosing leukoencephalitis | <neurology> Chronic progressive illness seen in children a few years after measles infection and involving demyelination of the cerebral cortex. Virus apparently persists in brain cells: usually considered a slow virus disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
| subacute sclerosing panencephalitis | <neurology> Chronic progressive illness seen in children a few years after measles infection and involving demyelination of the cerebral cortex. Virus apparently persists in brain cells: usually considered a slow virus disease. (18 Nov 1997) |
| subacute spongiform encephalopathy | A form of spongiform encephalopathy that is associated with a "slow virus", which to date has not been adequately described, is transmissible, and has a rapidly progressive, fatal course; e.g., Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, kuru, Gerstmann-Straussler syndrome, scrapie. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thyroiditis, subacute | Inflammation of the thyroid gland after a viral illness. (12 Dec 1998) |
| endocarditis, subacute bacterial | Infection of the endocardium caused by species of streptococcus. This condition does not produce metastatic foci and if untreated may take up to a year to be fatal. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anaemia of chronic disease | <disease> A form of anaemia which develops as the result of a long-term infection or illness. Chronic diseases can interfere with red blood cell production in addition to shortening red blood cell life span in the body. Symptoms are largely due to the underlying disease. Haemoglobin and haematocrit are generally low. Iron studies may be low to normal. Red blood cell indices may usually normal. (27 Sep 1997) |
| benign familial chronic pemphigus | Recurrent eruption of vesicles and bullae that become scaling and crusted lesions with vesicular borders, predominantly of the neck, groin, and axillary regions; autosomal dominant inheritance, presenting in late adolescence or early adult life. Synonym: Hailey-Hailey disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| candidiasis, chronic mucocutaneous | A clinical syndrome characterised by development, usually in infancy or childhood, of a chronic, often widespread candidiasis of skin, nails, and mucous membranes. It may be secondary to one of the immunodeficiency syndromes, inherited as an autosomal recessive trait, or associated with defects in cell-mediated immunity, endocrine disorders, dental stomatitis, or malignancy. (12 Dec 1998) |
| granulomatous disease, chronic | A recessive x-linked defect of leukocyte function in which phagocytic cells ingest but fail to digest bacteria, resulting in recurring bacterial infections with granuloma formation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| persistent chronic hepatitis | A benign chronic hepatitis that may follow acute viral hepatitis A or B, or complicate bowel diseases; after six months, liver biopsy changes are mild, unlike active chronic hepatitis; rarely, if ever, progresses to cirrhosis, portal hypertension, or liver failure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chronic | Persisting over a long period of time. Origin: L. Chronicus, Gr. Chronos = time (18 Nov 1997) |
