ABSTRACT

Sneddon syndrome is a noninflammatory thrombotic vasculopathy of small and medium vessels that mainly affects the skin and central nervous system. Exceptionally, it affects the heart, kidney and retina. We present the case of an 18-year-old female from Guatemala who is referred to the dermatology area for presenting livedo reticularis associated with a history of ischemic stroke and third cranial nerve paralysis.
