Acrocyanosis in age-atrophied, shiny skin, alternating temperature-dependent colouring from medium red to deep red.

acrocyanosis. acute, changeable, homogeneously laminar, reddish-livid skin discoloration with reduced temperature. doughy swelling, hyperhidrosis, perniones and cutis marmorata. sometimes slight pain and dysesthesia.

Acrocyanosis: Diffuse, reddish-livid skin discolouration at reduced temperature and doughy swelling; delayed filling of the vessel after anaemia by finger pressure (iris diaphragm phenomenon).

acrocyanosis in right heart failure. extensive homogeneous reddening of the facial areas. clearly more prominent in cold weather. moderate cyanosis of the red of the lips. age involution of the chin region with oblique chin furrows. moist corners of the lips with occasional pearlèche.

Acrocyanosis in right heart failure in age-related atrophic, shiny skin with solar lentigines on the back of the hand (DD: chronic Lyme disease - picture of acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans).

acrocyanosis in age-atrophied, shiny skin with half and half nails. DD: chronic lyme borreliosis. here the picture of acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans is present. the cold-dependence of the redness is not very pronounced. conspicuous (see stronger enlargement) the smooth atrophic skin surface. a positive borrelia serology is always to be expected in this stage of a borrelia infection.

Acrocyanosis; diffuse reddish-livid skin discoloration of both mammae only occurring in cold weather with large-meshed marbling; reduced skin temperature; possible doughy, cushion-like swellings, symmetrical infestation, numbness and iris diaphragm phenomenon.
