Lupus erythematosus panniculitis or lupus erythematosus profundus is characterized by inflammation of the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue. It can occur in isolation or associated with chronic systemic or discoid lupus erythematosus. It usually consists of nodules and hardened subcutaneous
BACKGROUND
Mesenteric panniculitis is a rare pathology of unknown etiology characterized by inflammation and fibrosis in the mesentery. Its protean clinical and radiological manifestations make it a diagnostic challenge. There is no established treatment available for its management. The clinical
Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTCL) is an infrequent cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma of the skin with a unique immunophenotypic profile. Here we describe this lymphoma in a 30-year-old Iranian woman. She presented with periorbital edema, mandibular swelling with edematous areas on her
We describe a preadolescent girl with intense ankle synovitis and pitting edema that obscured the subcutaneous origin of the inflammation. Typical nodular disease emerged after corticosteroid tapering when regional atrophy developed.
Periorbital edema may occur initially or in the course of a wide variety of diseases. One of these diseases is lupus panniculitis, a variant of lupus erythematosus, characterized by firm subcutaneous nodules that may ulcerate with subsequent scar formation. We present a case of lupus panniculitis in
A 43-year-old woman had multiple, painful nodules of the legs and edema of both lower extremities for 3 years and leukopenia for 8 years. This histologic findings of lobular histiocytic panniculitis with "beanbag" cells were typical of cytophagic panniculitis. This case is unique in that B cell
A 28-year-old man presented with a clinical picture suggestive of complex regional pain syndrome type I following a blow to the thenar eminence and thumb. Symptoms, including swelling of the hand and distal forearm, progressed until an amputation was carried out to rid the patient of an unendurable
Case 1. A 23-year-old white housewife presented with an erythematous violaceous rash on her face, neck, chest, and limbs, particularly over the dorsum of the hands and fingers; diffuse alopecia; and an inability to climb stairs and get up from a low seat. The clinical examination showed red to
Lupus erythematosus profundus (panniculitis) is a rare clinical variant of lupus erythematosus. It has not been implicated previously as a cause of lid edema or proptosis. In this report, three patients who had eyelid edema as the initial manifestation of lupus erythematosus profundus are presented.
We evaluated the histopathologic findings in 15 cases of panniculitis due to infection. Organisms were identified by special staining in 14 cases, and in 6 of these the etiologic agent was confirmed by culture studies. In one additional case, lesional culture was positive despite negative special
BACKGROUND
The MINE regimen (mitoguazone, ifosfamide, vinorelbine and etoposide) is a salvage chemotherapy for relapsed and refractory Hodgkin's disease.
METHODS
We report the cases of a 16-year-old girl and a 17-year-old boy who had Hodgkin's disease and developed painful and massive subcutaneous
Mesenteric panniculitis is an uncommon benign inflammatory condition of unknown etiology that involves the adipose tissue of the mesentery and for which an extremely varied terminology has been used, causing considerable confusion. It can be evaluated as a single disease with two pathological
