Abstract: © 2011 The Authors. doi: 10.2340/00015555-1081 Journal Compilation © 2011 Acta Dermato-Venereologica. ISSN 0001-5555 Cold panniculitis in horse riders, also known as horse rider’s pernio or equestrian panniculitis, is a rare phenomenon. Most published reports present only a few patients (1–5). Cold-induced pernio has also been reported in cyclists, motorists, milk-delivery men, golf-buggy drivers, and, in the context of other outdoor activities practised in wet and windy conditions (6), in both males and females (7). We describe here 3 patients, and an estimate of the prevalence of, and predisposing factors for, cold panniculitis among Finnish stable owners and their personnel based on a questionnaire study.
