Arteriosclerotic Gangrene of the Foot
Arteriosclerotic gangrene, or dry gangrene, is a condition that results when one or more arteries become obstructed. Gangrene is a term used to describe the decay or death of tissue caused by a lack of blood supply. It is usually a complication of infectious or inflammatory processes, vascular disease, diabetes mellitus, injury or trauma, or degenerative changes secondary to chronic diseases. There are three major types of gangrene: dry, moist, and gas—a form of moist.  In arteriosclerotic (dry) gangrene, the tissue dies slowly due to lack of blood supply. The root cause is non-infectious, although a secondary infection may ensue as a result of tissue death. In dry gangrene, the affected area becomes black and cold, begins to dry out and wither, and eventually sloughs off over a period of a few weeks to a few months. Dry gangrene is most common in individuals with advanced blockages of the arteries (arteriosclerosis) resulting from diabetes. Hence, the term arteriosclerotic gangrene. Individuals who have a personal or family history of coronary artery or cerebrovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, or kidney disease involving hemodialysis are at higher risk for arteriosclerotic gangrene. Incidence and Prevalence: Arteriosclerosis, the cause of arteriosclerotic gangrene, is a common disorder, with a prevalence of approximately 6 out of 1,000 individuals. |
