ABSTRACT
In thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease), little progress has been made in its treatment. Medical treatment is ineffective and bypass surgery is possible only in limited case. Nowadays, endovascular intervention is popular treatment option for Buerger's disease. Endovascular procedure is safe, technically feasible, and effective. Especially, in long occlusion lesion with distal channel, endovascular intervention can be an effective treatment option. Herein, we report a case of complete wound healing following the successful endovascular intervention in Buerger's disease patient with distal channel.
