  • Title: [Digital necroses of the upper limb. 86 cases].
    Author: Vayssairat M, Fiessinger JN, Housset E.
    Journal: Nouv Presse Med; 1977 Mar 19; 6(11):931-4. PubMed ID: 846853.
    Abstract:
    The authors study 86 cases of ischaemic problems affecting the upper limb associated with digital necrosis. They emphasise the wide range of aetiologies encountered and discuss the relationship between this syndrome and the main forms of arterial disease, principally inflammatory, scleroderma appearing to be the dominant though not sole aetiology. The aetiological results are also studied in relation to the extent of the necrosis and the sex of the patient. These data are compared with those found in the literature.
