Many causes of what was formerly called Weber-Christian and Rothmann-Makai diseases are being clarified as specific forms of panniculitis. Among them, an autoimmune process involving the subcutaneous fat without criteria for another defined disorder coined "connective tissue panniculitis" by Winckelman et al in 1980 has been described. We describe this disease in a 4-year-old boy who presented with multiple subcutaneous inflammatory nodules that extended in an annular fashion, resolved leaving lipoatrophy, with recurrence 8 years later.

Rothmann-Makai syndrome (lipogranulomatosis subcutanea) is a rare variant of Weber-Christian disease, but lacks visceral involvements and systemic manifestations. We herein report the case of a 56-year-old Chinese woman with this disorder who complained of subcutaneous tender nodules over her extremities, trunk, and face of 2 years' duration. She was firstly treated with 300 mg of oral roxythromycin for 8 weeks and subsequently treated with 400 mg of oral clarithromycin for the next 8 weeks.

Panniculitis is an inflammation of subcutaneous fat responsible for fairly uniform clinical features including nodules, plaques or swelling located in the subcutaneous tissue, occasionally progressing to atrophy of subcutaneous fat. Some forms of panniculitis specific of childhood are responsible for readily recognizable clinical patterns. Examples include acute neonatal fat necrosis, sclerema neonatorum, cryopanniculitis, steroid-induced panniculitis, and toxoplasmosis-related multinodular fat necrosis of Royer syndrome.

We reported the first case of Rothmann-Makai syndrome associated with mononeuropathy in a 31-year-old woman. In June 1989, she noticed several small subcutaneous nodules in the bilateral upper arms. On July 2, she woke up because of severe pain below the knee in the right leg which lasted 15 hours.
