Overview

Synonyms and keywords::Well's syndrome

Eosinophilic cellulitus (also known as "Wells' syndrome" from George Crichton Wells who first described it[1]) is a skin condition characterized by plaques that resemble cellulitis.[2]:144[3] Eosinophilic Cellulitis is of unknown etiology, though it is suspected to have an allergic and/or autoimmune component. There are documented cases of it being caused by flea (and other insect) bites and has been seen in conjunction with Churg-Strauss disease, though many cases are considered idiopathic. It has recently been added to the raredisease.org database. Typical treatment is with prednisone.
