Antiphospholipid antibody positive Sneddon syndrome: a case report

Sneddon syndrome may present with neurological findings such as transient ischemic stroke, strokes, seizures and/or headaches. However, a purplish, spider web-like skin finding called livedo reticularis may accompany the skin and precede neurological findings. Sneddon syndrome often affects women. Since it is vasculopathy affecting small and medium vessels, other organ findings may accompany. We present a 44-year-old Sneddon syndrome patient with monoparesis in her left lower extremity, livedo reticularis on her back and legs, and hypertension.
