Improvement of neurological symptoms and memory and emotional status in a case of seronegative Sneddon syndrome with cyclophosphamide.
[sneddon syndrome]
Sneddon
syndrome
(
SS
)
is
characterized
by
livedo
racemosa
,
recurrent
ischemic
strokes
,
and
often
progressive
vascular
dementia
.
Treatment
options
for
SS
center
on
either
anticoagulation
or
immunosuppression
to
prevent
strokes
and
to
dissipate
the
skin
findings
,
with
these
modalities
based
historically
on
the
presence
or
absence
of
antiphospholipid
antibodies
(
APA
)
respectively
.
However
,
few
effective
treatments
have
been
reported
to
reverse
the
cognitive
decline
in
SS
.
We
report
a
case
of
a
woman
with
seronegative
SS
(
absence
of
APA
)
with
cognitive
decline
who
demonstrated
objective
and
subjective
improvements
in
her
memory
and
emotional
functioning
after
treatment
with
cyclophosphamide
.
