Eosinophilic cellulitis (also known as Wells' syndrome from George Crichton Wells who first described it〔 〕) is a skin condition characterized by plaques that resemble cellulitis.〔 〕〔 〕 Eosinophilic cellulitis is of unknown etiology, though it is suspected to have an allergic and/or autoimmune component. There are documented cases of it being caused by flea (and other insect) bites and it has been seen in conjunction with Churg-Strauss disease, though many cases are considered idiopathic. In addition, it has also been reported in a case of IgG4-related disease.〔 〕 It is included in the (raredisease.org ) database. Typical treatment is with prednisone. == See also == * List of cutaneous conditions * (DermNet NZ ) entry 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eosinophilic cellulitis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
