This inflammatory process leads to scarring and obstruction of the artery and loss of blood flow to the affected extremity. Thromboangiitis obliterans is also known as Buerger's disease. This disease is extremely rare in women and is typically found in men before the age of 50 years. Thromboangiitis obliterans is an infrequent cause of "poor circulation" and is found in 12 people per 100,000 population in the United States. The prevalence is much higher in Japan, India, and Southeast Asia. The cause of thromboangiitis obliterans is not known; however, the disease is found solely in tobacco smokers. The disease progresses if one continues to smoke and will improve if one abstains from smoking.

Buerger's disease (also known as thromboangiitis obliterans) is a rare disease characterized by a combination of acute inflammation and thrombosis (clotting) of the arteries and veins in the hands and feet. The obstruction of blood vessels in the hands and feet reduces the availability of blood to the tissues, causes pain and eventually damages or destroys the tissue. It often leads skin ulcerations and gangrene of fingers and toes. Rarely, in advanced stages of the disease, it may affect vessels in other parts of the body. Who is affected by Buerger's disease?

Help Center View Basket Checkout Thromboangiitis obliterans DESCRIPTION Thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease) is a disorder where the blood vessels of the hands and feet become constricted or totally obstructed because of clots and inflammation within the blood vessels. 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 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.

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.

Table 1 Abstract TOP Thromboangiitis obliterans characteristically affects small-and medium-sized vessels of the limbs in young smokers. There is some controversy about the existence of visceral localizations of the disease. The case of a patient with a well-established diagnosis of thromboangiitis obliterans who presented with mesenteric ischemia is described and the literature concerning mesenteric involvement in the disease is reviewed. Thromboangiitis obliterans, also known as Buerger's disease, is an inflammatory, nonatherosclerotic vascular disease that most commonly affects the small-and medium-sized arteries and veins of the lower and upper extremities. It is characterized by the occurrence of segmental thrombotic occlusions of those vessels. It typically affects young smokers and evolves by crises. Its remissions and relapses are clearly correlated to the cessation or resumption of smoking.
