Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma is a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It presents clinically as panniculitis, with erythematous, firm subcutaneous infiltrates and recurrent papulonodules. A 45-year-old male Croat presented with a 6-month history of tender erythematous subcutaneous skin lesions without systemic symptoms. Analysis of a lesion biopsy specimen showed circumscribed ...

Lipomembranous panniculitis is a special type of fat necrosis which has been associated with several clinical conditions, mainly chronic venous insufficiency and connective tissue disorders such as lupus profundus, morphea, systemic sclerosis, and dermatomyositis .We report a 50 yearold woman with known rheumatoid arthritis who presented with a painful indurated erythematous plaque on her right...

Post-steroid panniculitis is known to be very rare and most of the reported cases have been in children after corticosteroid therapy. We present a case of post-steroid panniculitis occurring in a 60-year-old man after massive, long-term administration of corticosteroids for acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Histopathological examination of a nodule revealed a p...

Panniculitis is an inflammatory disease of subcutaneous adipose tissue which is rarely associated with dermatomyositis. It can occur before, after or simultaneously with muscle damage. In most cases, the evolution of panniculitis and of other dermatomyositis affections is favorable with corticosteroids and/or immunosuppressants. We report the case of a 48 year-old patient who developed pannicul...

Mesenteric Panniculitis is a benign fibro-inflammatory process involving adipose tissue of the mesentery. It is characterised by fat necrosis, chronic inflammation and fibrosis, causing thickening and shortening of the mesentery.

Two siblings had hyperpigmented indurations over the inner aspects of both thighs extending to the lower abdomen. Skin biopsy showed plasma cell panniculitis favoring a diagnosis of morphea profundus. Family history of consanguinity was present, but both parents were unaffected. To our knowledge this is the first report of autosomal recessive plasma cell panniculitis with the clinical manifesta...
