[A case of long-standing Weber-Christian panniculltis with visceral sites].
A summary review of the relevant literature is followed by the presentation of a case of recurrent, febrile Weber-Christian-type nodular panniculitis with an unusual course. The patient, a young woman, presented not only the typical subcutaneous lesions and constant hyperpyrexia but also visceral signs resulting in frequent and sometimes considerable haematuria and intestinal haemorrhage. The skin and visceral signs had tended to alternate and had run without remission for over 10 years. Every form of treatment attempted had been found ineffective.
