title: [Cellulitis, a conjunctive microvascular disease].
abstract: While the term cellulitis is incorrect, it is commonly used and deserves a nosological classification. "Cellulitis is a dermohypodermosis and an oedemato-sclerous panniculopathy- It is indeed a true histangiography in which the fibroblastic reaction predominates over capillaro-veinular changes. Adipocytes of exaggerated size interpenetrate into micro- and later into macronodules marked off by more or less structured conjunctive fibrilla, thereby making treatment difficult.
