title: Effect of cyclofenil treatment on arterial insufficiency demonstrated in a patient by colour thermography.
abstract: Cyclofenil, 200 mg t.i.d., was administered for four months to a 67-year-old woman, who suffered from a combination of scleroderma, Osler-Weber-Rendu disease and a severe atherosclerotic circulatory insufficiency. The effects on the severely impaired skin circulation in the face and hands were followed and recorded by colour isothermograms, using the AGA monitor system. The treatment resulted in a marked improvement of the arterial circulation with disappearance of the Raynaud phenomenon, complete arrest of gastrointestinal bleeding, disappearance of malabsorption, and relief of the joint stiffness.
