Endothelial dysfunction, thrombophilia, and nailfold capillaroscopic features in livedoid vasculopathy.

In conclusion, LV patients were characterized by an increased presence of thrombophilia-related parameters, and also exhibited vascular endothelial and microcirculatory dysfunction, resembling SSc. These findings support the complex interaction of thrombophilia, endothelial dysfunction, and microcirculation dysregulation in the pathogenesis of LV. Thus, the treatment of LV patients should be individualized, based on the identification of the predominant pathological pathways.
