Abstract

Livedo reticularis is a mottled or reti¬culated pink or reddish blue discoloration of the skin, mostly on the extremities especially the lower legs around the ankles. Exposure to cold usually emphasizes the intensity of discoloration, although the lesions are fixed and remain present on warming. Usually the lesion are asymptomatic; in other instances, coldness, numbness, paresthesia, or a dull ache may be present. A case with severe livedo reticularis was presented and etiologic factors were discussed.

Özet

Livedo retikülaris, ciltte benekli veya retikü-ler tarzda pembe ya da kırmızımtırak-mavi renk değişikliğinin gözlenmesidir. En sık olarak, ekstre-mitelerde ve özellikle alt ekstremitede, diz etrafın¬da görülür. Lezyonlu bölgeyi soğuğa maruz bırak¬makla renk değişikliği daha belirginleşir. Lezyon kalıcıdır ve ısıtma ile kaybolmaz. Genellikle asemptomatiktir, bazen ağrı, soğukluk ve uyuşuk¬luk gibi semptomlar da bulunabilir. Burada şid¬detli livedo retikülarisi olan bir hasta etyolojik yönden incelenerek takdim edildi.
