Livedoid vasculopathy associated with sickle cell trait: significant improvement on aspirin treatment.

Livedoid vasculopathy (LV) is a chronic, recurrent, painful cutaneous disease manifesting as longstanding distal lower extremity ulcers that scar leaving stellate atrophic lesions known as 'atrophie blanche'. A significant number of cases have been associated with thrombophilic abnormalities. In this study, we describe, to the best of our knowledge, the first report of LV only associated with sickle cell trait with significant improvement on aspirin.
