OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship of livedo reticularis, an ischemic dermatopathy, and migraine, an ischemic stroke risk factor.
BACKGROUND
Livedo reticularis refers to the reddish-blue reticular mottling of the skin resulting from narrowing of small and medium arteries at the
Three children with pronounced livedo reticularis present since birth (cutis marmorata-telangiectasia congenita) have been followed to the ages of eight, 17 and 21 years. During childhood they developed frequent recurrent transient stroke-like hemipareses, affecting either side of the body,
Sneddon's syndrome is a rare vascular disease affecting mainly skin and brain arterioles leading to their occlusion due to excessive endothelial proliferation. The two main features of this syndrome are livedo reticularis and lacunar subcortical infarcts. Here, we describe the case of a 64-year-old
OBJECTIVE
Livedo reticularis is a dermatopathy characterized by an irregular, violaceous, netlike pattern which spares the face. Associated with a variety of conditions, it occurs consequent to pathological or physiological narrowing of small and medium arteries at the dermis-subcutis border.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether there is clinical or biochemical evidence for a transient systemic inflammation during active periods of cluster headache.
METHODS
Twenty-seven male and female consecutively selected patients with episodic cluster headache filled in questionnaires aiming at detecting
A 51-year-old man gave a 2-year history of worsening mobility, cognitive decline and headaches. He had a history of thromboembolic stroke, recurrent transient ischaemic attacks and a spontaneous intraventricular haemorrhage. On examination, he had livedo reticularis and perniosis and a systolic
OBJECTIVE
A group of young patients presenting with cerebral ischemic events, endocardial lesions, and lupus anticoagulant is described in order to highlight the common clinical laboratory features.
METHODS
Fourteen consecutive patients (10 females, age range 17 to 53 years [mean 38 years]) at onset
Anti-phosphatidylethanolamine antibodies (aPE) belong to the group of anti-phospholipid antibodies (aPL) and are directed against neutral phospholipid, connected with co-factor protein, while cardiolipin antibodies (aKL) are directed against negative phospholipid. The paper presents a study of
BACKGROUND
There are anecdotal reports of the rare combination of Sneddon's syndrome, lupus anticoagulant, and Moyamoya. To our knowledge, we now report the first case of anticardiolipin antibodies, Sneddon's syndrome, and Moyamoya.
METHODS
Case-report and systematic literature review.
RESULTS
A
A 34-year old woman with dizziness, headache and both upper and lower extremities weakness was admitted to hospital. She had a history of photosensitivity but no asthma or allergy. On physical examination, malar rash and livedo reticularis were noted. White blood cell count was 18500/microL with
BACKGROUND
Sneddon's syndrome is the association between livedo reticularis and stroke. Hemorrhagic strokes in Sneddon's syndrome are exceptional.
METHODS
A 39-year-old woman who had had a livedo reticularis for about 14 years attended the Emergency Unit complaining of sudden, severe headache and
BACKGROUND
Livedo reticularis (LR) refers to the violaceous netlike pattern of skin related to arteriopathy at the dermis-subcutis border. Livedo is associated with migraine, and among migraineurs, LR is more common in those with prior stroke. Other evidence of vascular perturbation in migraine
METHODS
We report a case of a 26 year old woman with Raynaud's phenomenon and livedo reticularis 2 years onset, who presented with visual field defects accompanied by hypertension, hematuria, and headache. The examination revealed multiple retinal and optic nerve head infarcts in both
Sneddon's syndrome is a rarely seen disorder and it is characterized by livedo reticularis (LR) and neurologic findings. Some systematic findings may also be seen with neurologic and cutaneous findings. In this case, we aimed to present a 28-year-old female patient with diffuse LR, cardiac valve
Sneddon's syndrome refers to the enigmatic association of ischaemic stroke and livedo reticularis. We review the Sneddon's syndrome literature examining the association of this condition with headache, including migraine. Case reports and series are stratified into two groups based on headache
