Description of Spanish toxic oil syndrome

Spanish toxic oil syndrome: A complex systemic syndrome with inflammatory and autoimmune components that affect the skin, fascia, muscle, nerve, blood vessels, lung, and heart.

Biopsy of affected tissue reveals a microangiopathy associated with diffuse inflammation involving connective tissue.
