Overview
Livedoid vasculitis is a vascular disorder mostly affecting women. It may be aggravated by exposure to cold and occurs most often in the lower extremities. It can also be associated with the presence of anti-cardiolipin antibodies (the Antiphospholipid syndrome).
Historical Perspective
The condition's name derives from the Latin livere meaning bluish.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
Common Causes
- Anticardiolipin antibodies
- Antiphospholipid syndrome
- Factor V Leiden mutation
- Hyperhomocysteinemia
- Idiopathic livedo reticularis[1]
- Lupus anticoagulant
- Protein C deficiency

Treatment
Other than identifying and treating any underlying conditions in secondary livedo,[18] idiopathic livedo reticularis itself may improve with warming the legs, but once established the skin discolouration may become permanent.
