Excerpt from Sycosis: Prize Essay for 1877 of the Bellevue Hospital Medical College Alumni Association
Bateman was the first writer to give us certain correct ideas of our sycosis; and the majority of authors since his time have followed him, and have applied the term to designate that disease for which Bateman, and also the writers of thepresent day, use the term, and whose characteristic nature I have already given you in the definition of the disease. The views of those different authors, including those of Bateman, will be given in that part of my essay devoted to a discussion of the etiology and nature of the disease. That disease, which since the time of Gruby has been called sycosis parasitaria, will be discussed in the part devoted to the differential diag nosis of the disease.
