TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Section 19. Panniculopathies A1 - Weinberg, Samuel A1 - Prose, Neil S. A1 - Kristal, Leonard Y1 - 2008 N1 - T2 - Color Atlas of Pediatric Dermatology, 4e AB - This is a self-resolving and benign condition that is seen in healthy newborns. The etiology of this disorder is probably ischemic injury to subcutaneous fat. Lesions often develop at sites of pressure. The infants develop single or multiple firm red-purple nodules or plaques that are asymptomatic. Cheeks, back, buttocks, and thighs are the most common locations. It is difficult to capture the quality of panniculitis in the figure, but a sense of it can be appreciated on the back of the patient pictured in Fig. 19-2.
