| Definitions |
Livedo reticularis is characterized by the presence of a bluish purple, mottled or netlike pattern in unbroken circles on the skin. Exposure to cold environments usually intensifies the vascular pattern. Presumably, the condition results from slow or stagnant blood flow, vessel-wall pathology, and decreased oxygen tension. The distinction to cutis marmorata is that the mottling does not resolve when the skin is warmed, and the discoloration is bluish purple rather than red. The Livedo reticularis lesion is more intense and is persistent. |
