Livedoid Vasculopathy

Abstract Livedoid Vasculopathy is a disease characterized by occlusion of the capillaries of the dermis, without inflammatory signs. It begins with purpuric papules or macules that develop into painful ulcers, mainly involving the ankles and feet. In this case report, we describe diagnosis and treatment in a young pregnant patient, with excellent clinical response.

Refractory Case

Livedoid vasculopathy is a rare vascular disease which typically manifests as recurrent ulcerative lesions on the lower extremities. It is classified as a vasculopathy, not a true vasculitis, and defined as a vasooclusive syndrome, caused by non-inflammatory thrombosis of the upper and mid-dermal venulae. Main disorders associated with LV include thrombophilias, autoimmune diseases and neoplasia. A triad of clinical features is present in most patients and consist of livedo racemosa (less frequently livedo reticularis), ulcerations and atrophie blanche. Management generally relies on antiplatelet drugs, anticoagulants, vasodilators and fibrinolytic therapy. Some benefit has been observed with intravenous immunoglobulin, colchicine, hyperbaric oxygen, while glucocorticoids are efficient to a lesser extent. This case report highlights a refractory clinical form with no identifiable predisposing condition, which proved responsive only to intravenous immunoglobulin.

Pure Tone Audiogram

Purpose Misophonia is a sound tolerance disorder condition in certain sounds that trigger intense emotional or physiological responses. While some persons may experience misophonia, a few patients suffer from misophonia. However, there is a dearth of literature on audiological assessment and management of persons with misophonia. The purpose of this report is to discuss the assessment of misophonia and highlight the management option that helped a patient with misophonia. Method A case study of a 26-year-old woman with the complaint of decreased tolerance to specific sounds affecting quality of life is reported. Audiological assessment differentiated misophonia from hyperacusis. Management included retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy based on the principles described by P. J. Jastreboff and Jastreboff (2014). A misophonia questionnaire was administered at regular intervals to monitor the effectiveness of therapy. Results A detailed case history and audiological evaluations including pure-tone audiogram and Johnson Hyperacusis Index revealed the presence of misophonia. The patient benefitted from intervention, and the scores of the misophonia questionnaire indicated a decrease in the severity of the problem. Conclusions It is important to differentially diagnose misophonia and hyperacusis in persons with sound tolerance disorders. Retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy can help patients who suffer from misophonia.

This case report describes the positive outcome of a therapeutic intervention that integrated an intensive, residential component with follow-up telepractice for a 21 year old male who stutters. This therapy utilized an eclectic approach to intensive therapy in conjunction with a 12-month follow-up via video telepractice. The results indicated that the client benefited from the program as demonstrated by a reduction in percent stuttered syllables, a reduction in stuttering severity, and a change in attitudes and feelings related to stuttering and speaking.
