  • Title: Janeway lesions and Osler's nodes: a review of histopathologic findings.
    Author: Cardullo AC, Silvers DN, Grossman ME.
    Journal: J Am Acad Dermatol; 1990 Jun; 22(6 Pt 1):1088-90. PubMed ID: 2370335.
    Abstract:
    The histologic findings in Osler's nodes and Janeway lesions have been reported rarely; we found descriptions of only 10 such cases, mostly from the late nineteenth- and twentieth-century French literature. We found gram-positive coccobacilli in the dermal abscess of a Janeway lesion from a patient with bacterial endocarditis. This finding suggests that septic microemboli are the cause.
