Description

Rumpel‑Leede sign (RLS) or phenomenon describes the sudden appearance of well-demarcated petechiae distal to where a tourniquet or sphygmomanometer cuff have been applied. This can be a result of dermal capillary rupture in the context of increased venous hydrostatic pressure due to external compressive forces and capillary fragility or an underlying coagulopathy or thrombocytopaenia.
