[Cellulitis. Study of microangiopathy in 254 cases].

In a previous work, Segers and adl., the histological and histochemical study of the features of cellulitis is performed, expliciting the importance in this lipodystrophy of microangiopathy PAS positive. As a complement of that work, we study a group of 254 patients, all females, which came to us to be treated for their cellulitis, general clinical and local laser therapy. All of these patients presenting microangiopathy of their dermohipodermic capillary vessel confirmed by biopsy. These cases were divided in four groups according to the existence or not family antecedents of diabetes mellitus, and positivity or negativity to the test of glucose overcharge, sensibilized with corticoid (Fajans-Conn). The results are extensively described and discussed, and considerations are made referring to the aetiopathogenesis of both entities, diabetes and micro-pathological angiopathy, that could be generically and/or immunologically related.

[Cellulite].

In a group of 130 patients carriers of cellulite, that were subjected to a general clinic treatment and local treatment of laser-therapy, the authors, previous to the therapeutics, made an anatomopathologic study of the skin and the adipose tissue. The biopsies were done on patients of the feminine sex, confirming that all these cases presented the histopathologic and histochemical features of cellulite in their dermo-hypodermic tissue. A full study of intolerance to carbohydrates; lipidic, proteic and hormonal metabolism was also performed in all patients. Comparing the different parameters, the authors emphasize the multiple pathogenic varieties of the illness, and the possibility of future risk of macroangiopathy and coronariopathy.

[Cellulitis. Histopathologic and histochemical study of 100 cases].

An analysis of the bibliographical background is made. A study of 100 cases of cellulitis from the histopathologic and histochemical features is performed. The biopsies were done on patients of the feminine sex as a start of a whole treatment. It is inferred that in cellulitis pathologic, metabolic, hormonal and may be immunological factors, are linked to the malfunction of the vascular changes (micro-pathological angiopathy) in the form of thickening of the walls of capillaries and arterioles, that would generate a muco-edema in the dermo-hypodermic tissues. The cellulitis owing to its typical histological characteristics might be considered as a dystrophic capillary connective mucoidotic edema predominant in the skin of the root of the lower limbs.
