phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors including sildenafil and tadalafil demonstrated modest improvements in symptoms, duration, and frequency of attacks.

digital pain or ulcerations, particularly in patients with systemic sclerosis

A

T

46
Q

(2) perform distal revascularization ifthere is proximal occlusion
(3) debride digital ulcers.

Q

Risk factoe for Hypothenat hammer syndrom

A

men, smokers, and had occupational or hobby-related exposures to repetitive hand trauma

52
Q

Patients typically present with unilateral vascular insufficiency to the small, ring, or middle fingers; involvement of the thumb strongly suggests an alternative diagnosis

A

T

53
Q

In some patients, the small finger
is spared why?

A

In some patients, the small finger
is spared because of the proper ulnar digital artery to the small finger arises proximal to the Guyon canal

54
Q

Symptoms

pain, cold
intolerance, and numbness or weakness due to local compression of
the ulnar nerve

backfilling into the distal ulnar artery we can ligate the effected segment only
