description Erythema nodosum (EN) is a well-known form of panniculitis. It may occur as an idiopathic form and also can be induced by certain clinical conditions such as infections and granulomatous diseases such as sarcoidosis. Erythema nodosum may be accompanied by general symptoms such as fever, weakness, and severe pain, but skin lesions resolve without skin damage. Erythema nodosum occurrence is for the clinician a signal for a wider diagnosis and determination of the cause of occurrence of symptoms. The article presents three cases of EN with different causes and treatment.
