Erythema Induratum

Erythema Induratum

Bazin disease (or "Erythema induratum") is a panniculitis on the back of the calves.

It was formerly thought to be a reaction to the tuberculum bacillus. It is now considered a panniculitis that is not associated with a single defined pathogen.

It occurs mainly in women, but is very rare now.
