Flayani Disease

Flaiani disease (also known as Flaiani's disease) is a disease that was described by the Italian anatomist and surgeon Giovanni Flaiani in the 18th century. This disease is characterized by inflammation and swelling of the joints, which can lead to pain and limited mobility.

Flajani described this disease in his book “Dissertatio de morbo Flajani”, which was published in 1772. In this book, he described the symptoms of the disease, its causes and treatment. He also proposed his theory that the disease was caused by bacteria that entered the joints through wounds or cracks in the skin.

However, even though Flaiani was the first to describe this disease, it was not named after him. The name “flayani” was given to this disease in the 20th century, when its symptoms were again described in the medical literature.

Even though flyani disease is no longer relevant to modern medicine, its name continues to be used in some medical texts and books to remind the importance of prevention and treatment of this disease.



Flaiano disease is a disease previously called morbin or cranial angiomegaly, belonging to the group of myringial angiopathy, which is one of the most common systemic vasculitis, characterized by multiple neoplasms of the vessels of the scalp and face in the form of a tumor of a limited type. The main number of vessels develops pathologically in the dermal layers or subcutaneous tissue. Typically the face, back of the head and/or upper extremities are affected. The pathological process develops in closed areas of the body, surrounded by dense tissues (face, bones, tendons of the upper limb), does not penetrate deeply, and does not affect vital organs. Flayan's disease may be associated with autoimmune diseases (the most common cause is systemic lupus erythematosus). Other possible causes may include infections, genetic predisposition and various chemicals.

Flayano disease is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks small blood vessels, causing them to dilate and thicken. This can lead to red patches on the face, neck and back of the head, as well as headaches and other symptoms. The most common cause of the disease is genetic predisposition, but it can also be caused by infectious diseases such as rubella or hepatitis, or external factors such as ultraviolet radiation or chemicals. Treatment for Flayan disease involves taking medications that
