  • Title: [Drug therapy of angiolopathies].
    Author: Coget JM, Merlen JF.
    Journal: Phlebologie; 1987; 40(2):489-94. PubMed ID: 2886998.
    Abstract:
    The treatment of angiolopathies is rather difficult, at this time, at least concerning functional angiopathies. It is a fact that protection against cold represents, in all angilopathies, one of the main elements of the treatment besides medications which are essentially vasoactive drugs, myorelaxants or alpha-blockers, and possibly venous tonics. Fluorescein or Sodium fluoresceinate at 5%, administered in slow intra-venous injections, represents one of the best treatment of acrocyanosis, in combination with vitamins A and D, given at the beginning of fall. Other angiolopathies, especially those of organic nature, are represented by allergic vascularitis and will be treated accordingly. In infectious and toxic forms, antibiotics should be prescribed in addition to steroids, preferred in allergic forms, especially granulomatous forms. In conclusion, the treatment of angiolopathies is extremely difficult, and must be particularly adapted to the clinical forms.
