Descriptor síndrome de Sneddon
Entry term(s) livedo reticulares con afectación sistémica
síndrome de Sneddon-Champion
Scope note: Arteriopatía sistémica no inflamatoria que ocurre principalmente en mujeres de mediana edad y que se caracteriza por la asociación de LIVEDO RETICULARIS, INFARTO CEREBRAL trombótico múltiple, ENFERMEDAD CORONARIA e HIPERTENSIÓN. También puede haber aumento de los títulos de anticuerpos antifosfolipídicos (SÍNDROME ANTIFOSFOLIPÍDICO), valvulopatía cardíaca, ACCIDENTE ISQUÉMICO TRANSITORIO, CONVULSIONES, DEMENCIA e isquemia crónica de las extremidades. El examen anatomopatológico de las arterias afectadas revela fibrosis adventicia no inflamatoria, trombosis y cambios en la media.

Scope note: A systemic non-inflammatory arteriopathy primarily of middle-aged females characterized by the association of LIVEDO RETICULARIS, multiple thrombotic CEREBRAL INFARCTION; CORONARY DISEASE, and HYPERTENSION. Elevation of antiphospholipid antibody titers (see also ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID SYNDROME), cardiac valvulopathy, ISCHEMIC ATTACK, TRANSIENT; SEIZURES; DEMENTIA; and chronic ischemia of the extremities may also occur. Pathologic examination of affected arteries reveals non-inflammatory adventitial fibrosis, thrombosis, and changes in the media.
