Tratamento de vasculopatia livedóide com imunoglobulina intravenosa

Abstract: A vasculopatia livedóide apresenta-se com dor e úlceras de cicatrização lenta em membros inferiores, e fisiopatologia obscura. As estratégias terapêuticas incluem cicatrizantes, antiinflamatórios e imunossupressores, sem relatos de benefício permanente. Administrou-se imunoglobulina em paciente refratário a outras terapias e avaliou-se o comprometimento da pele antes e depois por meio de escore clínico. Houve regressão significativa das lesões. A droga foi bem tolerada, e a terapia foi finalizada.
