Histiocytic cytophagic panniculitis
1Department of Dermatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN 55905.
Abstract:
Nineteen cases of histiocytic cytophagic panniculitis from our institution and from the literature were reviewed for their clinical and histopathologic features. All patients had cutaneous involvement consisting of cutaneous nodules and plaques that occasionally were ecchymotic and ulcerated and were characterized by infiltration of the subcutaneous tissue by large, benign histiocytes with cytophagic features. Thirteen of the patients had died (nine with hemorrhagic complications), four patients had a benign course with remission of the disease, and two patients responded to aggressive polychemotherapy. Immunohistochemical studies of paraffin-embedded tissue, performed in five cases, revealed a large number of infiltrating T cells in the subcutaneous inflammatory lesions.

Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas, which occurs when the immune system becomes active and causes swelling, pain, and disruptions in organ function. Pancreatitis can manifest as either an acute or chronic condition.
Acute pancreatitis arises suddenly and lasts for a brief duration, while chronic pancreatitis is a long-term affliction...
Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...
