Polycythemia as an Underlying Cause of Digital Gangrene: A Rare and Unusual Case Presentation
J Am Podiatr Med Assoc. 2023 Sep-Oct;113(5):22-240. doi: 10.7547/22-240.ABSTRACTDigital gangrene is frequently encountered in patients who have diabetes with peripheral vascular compromise, with or without superimposed infection. Preoperative laboratory values and radiographic images are important to determine a proper course of action. Equally important is a thorough history taking to confirm or rule out systemic entities and preexisting conditions that can aggravate or predispose one to the development of digital gangrene.

Contemporary Medical Management of Peripheral Arterial Disease
ConclusionThe objective of medical management of PAD is to reduce the risk of MACE and MALE. Atherosclerotic risk factor optimization, appropriate wound care, and management of diabetic foot ulcers, foot infections, gangrene, and chronic, non-healing wounds are critical components of PAD care. Interdisciplinary care is essential to coordinate care, leverage expertise, and improve outcomes. (Source: Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy)
