pubmed:abstractText |
Weber-Christian disease has no known cause and is characterized by a febrile, recurrent, nonsuppurative panniculitis occurring preferentially in young, obese women. The present case is of interest in that it occurred in a young, obese woman after she lost 18.2 kg (40 lb) in eight weeks. It is only speculative as to whether the sudden weight loss precipitated the Weber-Christian disease. However, since Weber-Christian disease is an obscure disease with metabolic and autoimmune overtones, such a hypothesis is not unrealistic in a predisposed individual.
