| description | Panniculitis is an inflammation occurring within adipose tissue. This process is often associated with auto-immune diseases, infections, malignancy and others diseases of unknown cause. We report a 16-year-old woman with constitutional symptoms and relapsing nonsuppurative nodular panniculitis. The etiological study didn't identify any associated disease, on admission or in 2,5 years of follow-up. This is a case of Weber-Christian disease with a favourable corticosteroid therapy result. The authors present a Weber-Christian disease bibliographic revision. |
