ABSTRACT

Cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa is a form of vasculitis that affects small to medium sized arteries, with unknown incidence due to a low frequency. The exact etiopathogenesis is unknown. Clinically, it is characterized by painful subcutaneous nodules associated to livedo reticularis, that frequently evolves to ulcers on lower extremities, with a chronic and relapsing clinical course. Generally, it only involves skin, however, extracutaneous manifestation has been reported. In this article we describe different clinical presentation and management of two patients with different gender and age.
