Abstract

A 31-year-old woman had a livedo reticularis of reticulated, bluish discoloration on both arms and legs for 18 months with a burning pain in the right hand and numbness in both lower legs.
The findings of the electromyography were consistent with mononeuropathy multiplex and bilateral ulnar-median nerve anastomosis.
A biopsy specimen from the right sural nerve showed perivascular lymphocytic infiltration and occasional myelin digestion chambers, which were consistent with vasculitic neuropathy.
We present a patient with livedo reticularis idiopathica associated with mononeuropathy multiplex syndrome who also has bilateral ulnar-median nerve anastomosis.

Keywords: Livedo reticularis, Mononeuropathy multiplex syndrome, Ulnar-median nerve anastomosis
