ABSTRACT
Wells' syndrome was first described by Wells in 1971 as a recurrent granulomatous dermatitis with eosinophilia and was later named eosinophilic cellulitis. It is defined by the following criteria sudden onset of annular or circinate erythematous-edematous patches that rapidly evolve to morphea-like blue-slate-colored plaques; a histological feature characterized usually by the presence of 'flame figures'; non-constant blood hypereosinophilia. We present clinical and histopathologic features of three cases of eosinophilic cellulitis.
