Abstract:
A rare triad composed of lobular panniculitis in the setting of pancreatitis and polyarthritis is termed panniculitis, pancreatitis, and polyarthritis (PPP) syndrome. Pancreatic panniculitis is a rare form of subcutaneous fat necrosis associated with underlying pancreatic disease. We describe a case of PPP syndrome and review the relevant literature associated with this rare clinical syndrome. Despite numerous adjuvant therapies, definitive treatment of PPP syndrome requires correction of the underlying pancreatic disease.
