Abstract

Buerger's disease is a segmental and inflammatory syndrome affecting relatively young individuals primarily and occurs with occlusion of small to medium-sized vessels in their extremities. The typical age for symptoms to appear is between 35 and 50 years in smoking patients. The disease is not manifested in children or the elderly. The only recognized successful treatment for it is immediate termination of smoking. In this report, we describe the case of a 16-year-old male suffering from this condition and referred from the pediatric department to our clinic, followed by a literature review of Buerger's disease reported in adolescent patients.
