Abstract:
A 48-year-old women is described with the infrequent association of generalized livedo reticularis and cerebrovascular accident of idiopathic origin (Sneddon's syndrome-SS). Visual field testing revealed a left homonymous hemianopia with macular sparing. Though visual field impairments in SS have been reported, the type could usually not be specified precisely because of the dementia and lack of cooperation of the patients.
