ABSTRACT
Resumen La vasculopatía livedoide (VL), es una enfermedad vascular oclusiva que afecta la microvasculatura, se caracteriza por ser recurrente y no inflamatoria. Su incidencia es de 1/100.000 casos por habitantes, afectando en su mayoría a mujeres de edad media. Su patogenia se desconoce, pero se destaca el componente trombótico de la misma, causado por un estado de hipercoagulabilidad, que conduce a la oclusión vascular, debiendo distinguirse una forma primaria y una secundaria.Clínicamente se observan úlceras dolorosas a nivel maleolar que evolucionan progresivamente a una cicatrización atrófica, blanquecina nacarada y estrellada característica.Presentamos un caso clínico en un varón con múltiples comorbilidades y difícil tratamiento, el cual requirió un trabajo multidisciplinario.
Abstract Livedoid vascular disease (VL), is an occlusive vascular disease that affects the microvasculature, is characterized by being recurrent and non-inflammatory. Its incidence is 1 / 100,000 cases per inhabitant, affecting mostly middle-aged women. Its pathogenesis is unknown, but its thrombotic component stands out, caused by a state of hypercoagulability, which leads to vascular occlusion, and a primary and secondary form must be distinguished. Clinically, painful ulcers are observed at the malleolar level, progressing progressively to characteristic atrophic, pearly whitish and starry healing. We present a clinical case in a male with multiple comorbidities and difficult management, which required multidisciplinary work.
