Subcutaneous fat necrosis of the newborn is a rare form of lobular panniculitis occurring in newborns that is usually self-remitting and non-recurring. Proposed causes include perinatal stress, local trauma, hypoxia and hypothermia , though the exact cause is unknown.
Necrosis of subcutaneous fat without a significant inflammatory infiltrate and without obvious granulomatous changes, the formation of needle-shaped clefts in adipocytes, sometimes in a radial arrangement, and fibrous thickening of the tissue surrounding fat lobules are histopathologic findings that support a diagnosis of sclerema neonatorum.

Septal panniculitis is a condition of the subcutaneous fat affecting the layer of adipose tissue that lies between the dermis and underlying fascia, of which there are two forms: acute erythema nodosum and chronic erythema nodosum. [1]: 487–9
Fat necrosis may result from various injuries to adipose tissue, including: physical trauma, enzymatic digestion of adipocytes by lipases, [3] radiation therapy, [4] hypoxia, or inflammation of subcutaneous fat (panniculitis). The gross appearance of fat necrosis is as an irregular, chalky white area within otherwise normal adipose tissue. [1]
