Symmetrical Peripheral Gangrene
A 27-year-old woman presented to the clinic with well-demarcated symmetrical dry gangrene of all the toes. The onset was insidious during recent hospitalization for urosepsis and shock. There is no antecedent history of peripheral ischemia, use of oral contraceptive pill, or smoking. Her medical history is significant for hypertension and preeclampsia. Dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial pulses were palpable. |
