[Reversible microangiopathies following massive weight loss].

A 17-year-old patient presented with loss of weight, acrocyanosis and trophic lesions of the tips of the toes. There were no clinical or immunological signs of connective tissue disease. Capillary microscopy revealed a severe organic microangiopathy and arteriolar spasm. A change in the patient's occupational conflict situation was followed by complete recovery and capillary findings normalized. The possible connection between anorexia-like affection and capillariopathy remains unclear.
