Abstract
Alpha-1-Antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency associated panniculitis is commonly included in the dermatologist's differential diagnosis but the disease is rarely ever diagnosed or discussed. The pathophysiology, clinical presentation, histopathology, diagnosis, and treatment of AAT deficiency panniculitis will be reviewed.
