Cutaneous microvascular disturbances due to vascular coagulopathies – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/682102714

A range of disorders characterised by occlusion of small blood vessels in the microvasculature of the skin as a result of abnormal blood coagulability. The disturbances may be limited to the skin (atrophie balnche and livedoid vasculopathy) or associated with more widespread vascular occlusion (malignant atrophic papulosis of Degos).
