Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita (CMTC) is a birth defect involving the skin and blood vessels. It is characterized by patches of marbled-looking skin (cutis marmarota), small widened blood vessels under the skin (telangiectasia) and varicose veins (phlebectasia).The skin findings most often occur on the legs, but may also occur on the arms and trunk. The face is only rarely involved. Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita is a rare congenital vascular disorder that usually manifests in affecting the blood vessels of the skin. The condition was first recognised and described in 1922 by Cato van Lohuizen, a Dutch pediatrician whose name was later adopted in the other common name used to describe the condition - Van Lohuizen Syndrome
Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita is present at birth. It is characterised by fixed patches of mottled skin with a net-like or reticulate blue to pale purple patches (livedo reticularis). Unlike physiological cutis marmorata, the marks do not fade with warming Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita (CMTC) is a rare, sporadic, congenital cutaneous vascular disorder of unknown etiology.[1][2] CMTC usually presents at birth with persistent cutis marmorata, vascular telangiectasia, and occasionally, ulcers.[1] There is typically improvement of this reticular vascular skin pattern during the first year with gradual improvement in time.[1 Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita (CMTC) is a rare condition that mainly affects the blood vessels of the skin. It is present at or soon after birth. The cause of CMTC is unknown. CMTC is not caused by any known drug, medication or environmental factor that the baby may have been exposed to during the pregnancy Three of our own and 38 previously reported cases of cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita (CMTC) are reviewed.

Abstract: Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita (CMTC) is an uncommon, sporadic, congenital cutaneous condition presenting with persistent cutis marmorata, telangiectasia, phlebectasia and possible ulceration of the involved skin, skin atrophy, and undergrowth of the involved extremity. To further the current understanding of this disorder, we analyzed the clinical features of a large. Cutis Marmorata Telangiectatica Congenita. Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita (CMTC) is a distinct, reticulated capillary-venous malformation that primarily affects the lower extremities (Figure 101-3). CMTC can occur as a single isolated patch or involve an extensive area. With time, associated atrophy and ulceration may occur Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita is an uncommon, generally congenital, cutaneous condition. The major skin findings are persistent, fixed cutis marmorata, telangiectasia, and phlebectasia; often, there is associated skin atrophy and ulceration as well. Significantly, two-thirds of patients
