BACKGROUND: The mechanism of livedoid vasculopathy (LV) remains unknown.
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association between coagulation factors and LV and to assess the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban in the treatment of patients with LV.
METHODS: From May 2019 to July 2022, 89 patients with LV and 35 healthy controls were included in a cross-sectional cohort to measure the levels of coagulation factors. In addition, 55 patients with LV treated with rivaroxaban were included in a treatment cohort to assess the complete remission rate of ulcers (n = 44) and retiform purpura (n = 11) within 12 weeks.
RESULTS: In the cross-sectional cohort, the activities of coagulation factor X in patients with LV were significantly higher than those in healthy controls: median 110.5% [interquartile range (IQR) 97.5-127.0%] vs. 101.3% (IQR 91.6-115.6); P = 0.05. In addition, coagulation factor X activities in the progressive stage were higher than at the stable stage: median 111.6% (IQR 102.3-132.5) vs. 105.4% (IQR 92.9-118.8); P = 0.04. Moreover, coagulation factor X activities were higher at the progressive stage than at the stable stage in a subgroup of 20 patients with LV (P = 0.04). In the treatment cohort taking rivaroxaban, 91% (40/44) of patients with ulcers achieved complete remission within 12 weeks, and 73% (8/11) of patients with retiform purpura achieved complete remission within 12 weeks. Mild side-effects occurred in 25% of patients (14/55), including menorrhagia (n = 10), gingival bleeding (n = 3) and haemorrhage (n = 1).
CONCLUSIONS: Coagulation factor X was associated with the incidence and severity of LV in this study. In addition, rivaroxaban was an effective and safe treatment for ulcers and retiform purpura in people with LV.
