Abstract

16 patients with clinically and histologically verified necrobiosis lipoidica lesions were treated with either 40 mg acetylsalicylic acid or placebo daily for 24 weeks in a double-blind controlled study. The lesions became statistically significantly larger in both groups in spite of inhibition of the aggregation of the platelets in the acetylsalicylic group.
