A Case of Cytophagic Histiocytic Panniculitis Associated with Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis

초록

Cytophagic histiocytic panniculitis (CHP) is a rare form of panniculitis, presenting lymphohistiocytic infiltration within subcutaneous fat tissue with phagocytic histiocytes. Associated systemic symptoms includes fever, hepatosplenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, serositis, pancytopenia, hepatic abnormalities, hypertriglyceridemia, and coagulopathy, which are the features of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). The patients of CHP associated with HLH may have nonfatal acute/intermittent, or rapidly fatal clinical courses, so the prompt and accurate diagnosis with immunosuppressive treatments are significant. © 2021 Korean Dermatological Association.
