Popis: Panniculitis is a rare disorder which usually affects the organ and tissue which are abundant in fat cells. It causes fatty degeneration of the fat cells. Cutaneous panniculitis can be mistaken for other skin and subcutaneous lesions and the diagnosis is usually made histologically. We report a 18 yr old female presented with multiple subcutaneous nodules on right cheek since six months and with history of trauma two years back associated with facial asymmetry and histological examination revealed lobular panniculitis of traumatic etiology.
