Abstract
Introduction: Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) may be a treatment option in limb ischemia occurring as a result of Thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) or secondary Raynaud's-Syndrome (SRS). The impact of SCS on disease
progression and micro-perfusion was prospectively evaluated during a follow-up (FU) of 4 years.
Report: Under SCS, a significant increase in trans-cutaneous oxygen tension (tcpO2) was observed in TAO and a significant increase in systolic perfusion pressure at plethysmography was observed in SRS. Complete limb preservation was achieved in all patients who had reduced tobacco consumption.
Discussion: SCS is an efficient therapeutic tool in TAO and SRS. Patient selection criteria are crucial for success.
