A sign or symptom
that is so characteristic of a disease that it makes the
diagnosis. For example, Koplik's spots (on the buccal
mucosa opposite the lst and 2nd upper molars) are
pathognomonic of measles. The word "pathognomonic"
(pronounced patho-no-monic) comes from the Greek
"pathognomonikos' meaning "skilled in judging diseases."
