Total Percutaneous Revascularization of the Hand to Treat Refractory Digital Ischemia in Advanced Systemic Sclerosis

Total Percutaneous Revascularization of the Hand to Treat Refractory Digital Ischemia in Advanced Systemic Sclerosis

We present the case of a young woman with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and refractory digital ulceration who was successfully treated with percutaneous revascularization of chronically occluded ulnar and radial arteries. To our knowledge, this is the first detailed report of limb salvage in SSc-induced...

Zusammenfassung:We present the case of a young woman with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and refractory digital ulceration who was successfully treated with percutaneous revascularization of chronically occluded ulnar and radial arteries. To our knowledge, this is the first detailed report of limb salvage in SSc-induced hand ischemia in which contemporary endovascular techniques were used. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
