The goal of the present study was to follow the clinical behaviour of 6 non diabetic patients (5 females and 1 male, aged 23-68) suffering from necrobiosis lipoidica. Thickening of the basalmembrane of capillaries could be confirmed by electron microscopy, although the histological structure of skin alterations are not different from those observed in diabetes mellitus. Three patients (2 females and one male) showed impaired glucose tolerance, 2 other patients had increased levels of total cholesterol, whereas one patient suffered from both metabolic disturbances. After treatment with ASA (acetylsalicylic acid, 1.0 g/day) and dipyridamole (200 mg/day) for six weeks, the decrease of platelet in vitro aggregation in platelet rich plasma could be observed by stimulation with arachidonic acid, epinephrine, ADP and collagen, respectively. Healing of the exulceration of skin lesion could be detected by the use of the combined treatment of ASA and dipyridamole in 4 cases.

D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
D009335 Necrobiosis Lipoidica A degenerative disease of the dermal connective tissue characterized by the development of erythematous papules or nodules in the pretibial area. The papules form plaques covered with telangiectatic vessels. More than half of the affected patients have diabetes. Necrobiosis Lipoidica Diabeticorum,Diabeticorum, Necrobiosis Lipoidica
D010974 Platelet Aggregation The attachment of PLATELETS to one another. This clumping together can be induced by a number of agents (e.g., THROMBIN; COLLAGEN) and is part of the mechanism leading to the formation of a THROMBUS. Aggregation, Platelet

D004176 Dipyridamole A phosphodiesterase inhibitor that blocks uptake and metabolism of adenosine by erythrocytes and vascular endothelial cells. Dipyridamole also potentiates the antiaggregating action of prostacyclin.
