[Systemic fat necrosis and septic arthritis in acute pancreatitis].
Systemic fatty necrosis secondary to acute pancreatitis was diagnosed in a 47-year-old man with high fever and painful nodules on the arms and the upper legs. This was complicated by fatal septic shock, septic arthritis and extensive soft tissue infections with Enterobacter cloacae, which was unsuccessfully treated with several antibiotic regimens, and from which the patient died.
