pubmed:abstractText |
Digital ischaemia is a recognised complication of both malignant disease and chemotherapy. Its onset may prevent further treatment and lead to tissue loss. We report a case of severe digital ischaemia in a patient with advanced breast carcinoma undergoing cytotoxic chemotherapy. This was successfully treated with Iloprost, a prostacyclin analogue.
