Abstract

Panniculitides are a group of heterogenic inflammatory diseases that involve the subcutaneous fat. Treatment for panniculitides, idiopathic ones in particular, has not been conclusively developed and is generally performed empirically. The paper describes a case successfully treated with glucocorticosteroids in combination with azathioprine for the plaque form of Weber–Christian panniculitis.
