Redirection from ¨Infiltrative Disorders"

I found it strange that searching for "infiltrative disorders" redirects to this page "List of Cutaneous Conditions". "infiltrative disorders" are diseases where a cellular type is present where it shouldn't (that the best definition that I found...: https://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/infiltrative+disorder and here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0002934356900997). The examples are Granulomatous diseases like Tuberculosis and Sarcoidoses, but also systemic lupus and Hodgkin lymphoma. Of course they can all have cutaneous presentations but redirecting here is quite restrictive. Linuxo (talk) 14:10, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

List of cutaneous conditions → List of skin conditions – Cuteaneous and skin are synonyms. Skin is common English and thus better in my opinion. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:39, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
