Resumen

The "Wells syndrome" is a rare inflammatory dermatosis of unknown pathogenesis, clinical polymorph, both the location and the extent of the lesions. This is a skin disease of inflammatory origin, which usually appears in children and adolescents. Has a polymorphic clinical picture, both the location and the extent of the lesions, and for the correct interpretation of diagnostic histopathological lesions required. This entity should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any atypical presentation of cellulite with peripheral eosinophilia, that does not respond to antibiotics.
