A young woman presenting severe livedo vasculitis (LV) was successfully treated with potassium iodide (KI). Previous attempts to cure her disorder with corticosteroids, low-dose aspirin, and azathioprine in various combinations had failed. To our knowledge, this is the first report of LV treated with KI.
