A rare case of symmetrical cyanosis circumscripta e lipomate above both knees in a 78-year-old woman is presented. The report details clinical symptoms, pathogenesis, and potential treatments for this condition.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Vascular Medicine

Background:

  • Cyanosis circumscripta e lipomate is a rare condition characterized by bluish discoloration and lipomatous tissue.
  • Understanding its etiology is crucial for effective management.

Observation:

  • A 78-year-old female presented with symmetrical, well-defined bluish lesions above both knees.
  • The lesions were associated with palpable lipomatous components.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination revealed characteristic features of cyanosis circumscripta e lipomate.
  • The condition appears to be idiopathic in this case, with no clear underlying vascular or systemic cause identified.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of recognizing rare dermatological presentations.
