Abstract
Two patients with livedo vasculitis were treated successfully with antiplatelet drugs including ticlopidine hydrochloride, dipyridamole, and low-dose aspirin. Increased platelet functions were restored 1 week after the beginning of the treatment, followed by dramatic improvement of painful leg ulcers within 1 month. Livedo status was unchanged. We claim that antiplatelet therapy should be the first choice of treatment in this disease.Entities:
