Abstract

Livedoid vasculopathy (LV) associated with sticky platelets syndrome type 3 (SPS type 3) and enhanced activity of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) anomalies. A 14-year-old girl presented with a six-month history of multiple painful ulcers on both ankles, preceded by erythema in the affected areas. In this patient, the ulcers healed spontaneously without any recurrence.6 We describe a rare case of LV in an adolescent girl. [Extracted from the article]
