La dermohypodermite bactérienne bilatérale des membres inférieurs existe-t-elle ?

Bacterial infectious dermohypodermitis (cellulitis) is an acute skin infection, usually unilateral, characterized by warm, painful, erythematous swelling associated with systemic symptoms. Bilateral forms are very rare and should prompt consideration of other, more common diagnoses: stasis dermatitis, erythema nodosum, photodermatoses, or contact eczema, for example. The treatment of bacterial infectious dermohypodermitis is based on antibiotic therapy, rest, and venous-lymphatic compression, provided there are no contraindications. Non-infectious diagnoses require targeted, multidisciplinary management.
