[A case of thromboangiitis obliterans in a young woman. A rarity and diagnostic difficulties].
The diagnosis of thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's Disease) in a young patient can only be arrived at by means of a number of different arguments: clinical, biological and immunological, angiography, capillaroscopy especially if it concerns a young female patient; the rarity of TAO in a young woman ought to mean that scleroderma and lupus can be discounted; it also necessitates an annual clinical and paraclinical check-up.
