Other etiologies were very divers: inflamatory artertis, atheroma, local mecanical causes, emboligenic. In 18 patients, no etiology was found: the age, the sex, the context and the benign cours in this patients was such that a diagnosis of idiopathic Raynaud's phenomenone. This results lead to the suggestion of a method for the investigation of Raynaud's phenomenone. The consequences are therapeutic, the etiological context foring the base of the treatment prescribe.
