Extractions: Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease) is caused by vasculitis, which is an inflammation (irritation with presence of extra immune cells) of blood vessels. The blood vessels of the hands and feet are especially affected, becoming constricted or totally blocked. This reduces blood flow to the tissues of hands and feet, resulting in pain and eventually damage. Thromboangiitis obliterans affects approximately 6 out of every 10,000 people. It almost always affects men aged 20 to 40 years old who have a history of smoking or chewing tobacco. The condition may also be associated with a history of Raynaud's disease . This disorder is very uncommon in children, but may occur in those with autoimmune diseases

Extractions: Surgical sympathectomy (cutting the nerves to the area) may help to control pain. Aspirin and vasodilators are also used. Amputation of the extremity may be necessary if infection or gangrene occurs. Prognosis Symptoms of thromboangiitis obliterans may disappear, if the person stops tobacco use . For some, amputation is unavoidable.

A Findings: Fig. 1. Right hand arteriogram shows multiple segmental occlusions of digital vessels (arrows). The superficial and deep palmar arches also had several sites of segmental occlusion (not shown). Fig. 2. Diffusely narrowed tibioperoneal vessels with occlusion of the proximal anterior tibial artery (arrow). Fig. 3. CT image demonstrates portal venous air and heterogeneity of the hepatic parenchyma. Fig. 4. CT image demonstrates bilateral irregular enhancement of renal parenchyma indicating areas of infarction. Fig. 5. CT image reveals dilated large and small bowel loops with wall thickening and pneumatosis indicative of intestinal necrosis. Fig. 6. CT scanogram scout reveals markedly dilated large and small bowel loops with pneumatosis and air in the portal venous system again visible. Incidental note is made of left ventricular enlargement.

Extractions: Health Information from: Disease Injury ... Prevention Thromboangiitis obliterans Alternative names: Buerger's disease Definition: A disorder that leads to obstruction of the blood vessels of the hands and feet. Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Vasculitis (an aggressive form of inflammation) targets the lining of the small arteries and veins, causing thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease). The blood vessels of the hands and feet become constricted or totally obstructed because of the inflammation and clots. This reduces the availability of blood to the tissues, causing pain and eventually damaging or destroying the tissues, and making them more prone to infections and gangrene. Thromboangiitis obliterans affects approximately 6 out of 10,000 people. It almost always affects men, 20 to 40 years old, who have a history of smoking or chewing tobacco. This may also be associated with a history of Raynaud's disease . This disorder is very uncommon in children, but it may occur in those with autoimmune diseases Review Date: 2/12/01 Reviewed By: Elena Sgarbossa, M.D., Cardiology Department, Rush-Presbyterian St. Luke's Medical Ctr., Chicago, IL.

Peripheral Vascular Disease thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO), also known as Buergers disease, is an uncommonPVD that occurs in both arteries and veins. thromboangiitis obliterans. http://www.mycustompak.com/healthNotes/Concern/Peripheral_Vascular_Disease.htm
Extractions: Peripheral Vascular Disease Also indexed as: Aneurysm, Buerger's Disease, Chronic Thromboangiitis, Occlusive Arterial Disease, Venous Thrombosis Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) refers to conditions that primarily affect the arteries of the body, with the exception of the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart. Those are covered in the article on cardiovascular disease . The most common areas for PVD are the arteries of the legs and upper arms, the carotid (neck) arteries, the abdominal aorta and its branches, and the renal (kidney) arteries. Conditions affecting the veins, such as chronic venous insufficiency varicose veins , and hemorrhoids , are not usually included in PVD. A major cause of stroke is PVD of the carotid arteries. Intermittent claudication refers to pain in the lower legs after walking short distances and is caused by PVD of the leg arteries. One cause of erectile dysfunction may be PVD of the penis. is a painful condition caused by spasms of arteries after exposure to cold. The cause of most types of PVD is atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), which itself has many causes.

Published by Dr. Sharath Home: Dr. Sunil Furtado's Gastrointestinal page The incidence of arterial disease has assumed alarming proportions all over the world. Considering the fact that the basic aetiological factors in acquired arterial disease are not yet fully understood and the precise biochemical abnormalities as yet to be fully elucidated there is a need for further study to gain insight into this disease. Obscure medical treatment cannot be directed to correct or reverse the cause of the disease once it is established. Acute occlusions of the arterial tree are catastrophic in their appearance and progress, yet yield good results with early therapeutic measures. Chronic obstructive lesions on the other hand are a bugbear for the clinician both in terms of diagnosis and treatment. The vast majority of such chronic occlusive lesions are the result of Atherosclerosis, Thromboangiitis Obliterans, Diabetes Mellitus and certain other uncommon causes.

Extractions: With the exception of a single lady, all the patients were smokers, and 40 (83.5%) of 48 smokers for whom the relevant information was available persisted with their habit after the onset of the disease. 8 (16.6%) of the 48 patients claimed to have stopped smoking during the course of their disease. Among the patients who continued to smoke, 65% required an amputation, which was almost twice that seen in those who stopped smoking. Conclusion: The long-term investigation shows that TAO is associated with frequent hospitalisations and surgical procedures. Continued consumption of tobacco in particular was found to be associated with a multiplication of the amputation rate. An influence of patient age at disease onset on the progression of TAO was excluded. In 49 (71 %) of the patients, the disease resulted in termination of the working life by either dismissal or premature retirement.
