Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top Thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease) is caused by vasculitis, which is an inflammation of blood vessels. Inflammation is irritation with presence of extra immune cells. 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 20 to 40 years of age 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

An angiogram demonstrating lack of blood flow to vessels of the hand ( figure below An abnormal result from an angiogram of the hand ( figure below Despite the severity of ischemia (lack of blood flow) to the distal extremities that occurs in Buerger’s, the disease does not involve other organs, unlike many other forms of vasculitis. Even as ulcers and gangrene develop in the digits, organs such as the lung, kidneys, brain, and gastrointestinal (GI) tract remain unaffected. The reasons for the confinement to the extremities and sparing of other organs are not known. (top of page) What Causes Buerger's Disease?

Lipedema Thromboangiitis Obliterans (Buerger's Disease) An obliterative disease characterized by inflammatory changes in small and medium-sized arteries and veins. Thromboangiitis obliterans occurs in cigarette smokers, predominantly in men aged 20 to 40. Only about 5% of cases occur in women. The frequency of diagnosis has decreased drastically in recent years because of better understanding of clinical and angiographic characteristics of this disease vs. arteriosclerosis obliterans. Although few investigators believe this disease is indistinguishable pathologically from occlusive disease caused by some types of atherosclerosis, idiopathic peripheral thromboses, or systemic emboli, most clinicians agree that the clinical characteristics are sufficiently distinctive to consider thromboangiitis obliterans a discrete entity. Although the cause is unknown, thromboangiitis obliterans has not been documented in nonsmokers, implicating cigarette smoking as a primary etiologic factor, perhaps as a delayed type of hypersensitivity or toxic angiitis. Thromboangiitis obliterans may be a reaction to tobacco by persons with a specific phenotype, because of greater prevalence of HLA-A9 and HLA-B5 in persons with the disease; or an autoimmune disorder with cell-mediated sensitivity to types I and III human collagen, which are constituents of blood vessels.
