Erythema nodosum (EN) is the most frequent clinicopathologic variant of panniculitis with painful red or violaceous nodules on the anterior surfaces of the legs. The condition is a cutaneous reaction that might be associated with a wide variety of disorders or might be caused by medications that produce painful nodules on the shins, and less commonly on the thighs and forearms. In this paper, we describe, for the first time in the world, erythema nodosum as the simultaneous presenting complaint of monozygotic twin sisters after streptococcal pharyngitis. This paper might support the effect of heredity in the occurrence of erythema nodosum.
结节性红斑（EN）是脂膜炎最常见的临床病理类型，表现为小腿前侧出现疼痛性红色或紫红色结节。这种情况是一种皮肤反应，可能与多种疾病相关，也可能由某些药物引起，这些药物会在小腿产生疼痛性结节，较少见于大腿和前臂。在本文中，我们首次报道了世界上一对单卵双胞胎姐妹在患链球菌性咽炎后同时出现结节性红斑的病例。本文可能支持遗传因素在结节性红斑发病中的作用。
