Abstract
Thromboangiitis obliterans is an occlusive vasculopathy affecting small- and medium-size arteries. It can result in severe ischemic status. Thrombophlebitis can be associated. The exact etiology has still to be elucidated. Smoking is the main contributing factor. Diagnosis is based on clinic and paraclinic context, as well as exclusion of other vascular pathologies. Its management consists in complete smoking cessation and instauration of vasodilator treatment. Revascularization is an option that has to be evaluated on a case by case basis. New promising therapeutic approaches are emerging.
