Description
Cellulitis is a frequent pathology in both outpatient and inpatient clinical practice. This article reviews the pathophysiology of cellulitis, as well as the various complementary examinations useful in its diagnosis. It describes current recommendations for its management. Several differential diagnoses may also be considered, such as stasis dermatitis, lymphedema or deep vein thrombosis. These must be distinguished from cellulitis to avoid unnecessary antibiotic therapy. There are also a number of specific cases of cellulitis (necrotizing fasciitis, bites, diabetic foot) requiring special management. These are also discussed in this article.La cellulite représente une affection fréquente dans la pratique clinique ambulatoire comme hospitalière. Cet article passe en revue la physiopathologie et les différents examens complémentaires utiles au diagnostic de cellulite. Il décrit les recommandations actuelles de prise en charge. Plusieurs diagnostics différentiels peuvent également être évoqués tels que la dermite de stase, le lymphœdème ou encore la thrombose veineuse profonde. Ces derniers doivent être distingués de la cellulite afin d’éviter une antibiothérapie inutile. Il existe encore plusieurs cas particuliers de cellulite (fasciite nécrosante, morsures, pied diabétique) nécessitant une prise en charge particulière. Ceux-ci sont également abordés dans cet article.
