Abstract
- Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita is a rare disorder characterized by cutis marmorata, telangiectasia with or without recurrent ulcerations. It is a benign vascular anomaly with dilatation of capillaries and veins in the dermis. There is no satisfactory treatment for the ulcerative variety of cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita. In this case, intense pulse light therapy was used with almost near total cure. Intense pulse light with its vascular filter of wavelength 550-1200 nm was used every fortnight till complete resolution of lesions.
