Preferred term label: Caseous vernixlike desquamation

Definition (free text, please give PubMed ID) Vernix caseosa is a physiological, viscous biofilm that is produced by desquamated fetal skin and sebaceous glands covering the fetus at the third trimester in-utero. The substance's gross morphology in post-partum is described by the etymology, as vernix means varnish, and caseosa means cheesy-like matter. This finding refers to an abnormally thick and greasy vernix caseosa-like scale present at birth.
