indurated erythema

indurated erythema
erythema induratum 1. a type of predominantly lobular panniculitis of uncertain etiology, seen in young and middle-aged women, often seen in patients with cutaneous tuberculosis. It is initiated or exacerbated by cold weather and usually presents as recurrent erythrocyanotic nodules or plaques on the calves, with granulomas, vasculitis, and caseation; it sometimes progresses to form deep-seated indurations, ulcerations, and scars. 2. sometimes limited to those cases in which patients also have cutaneous tuberculosis, with nontubercular types being called nodular vasculitis. Called also Bazin disease.
