title: [The Budd-Chiari syndrome and Buerger's disease: a case report].
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Buerger's disease is an inflammatory non atheromatous distal arteriopathy affecting mainly young male smokers. There is some controversy about the existence of visceral localisations of the disease.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  Report a new case.
  
  
  METHODS
  We report the case of a 40-years-old man who developed a Budd Chiari syndrome with thromboses of the right hepatic venous. Later, he presented with rheumatic and distal occlusive arterial manifestations diagnosed as Buerger's disease.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We underline the fact that digestive manifestations and hepatic involvement are less known and sometimes misdiagnosed.
