| 영문 | Buerger disease | 한글 | 버거병 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 말초 동맥과 정맥에 염증을 일으키는 병. 청장년층의 남자에게 잘 걸리는 다리 동맥에 생기는 병으로 동맥이 막히고 통증 때문에 발을 절기도 하는데 원인은 알려져 있지 않다. 병명은 이 병을 최초로 상세하게 보고한 미국의 의사 L. 버거(1879~1943)의 이름에서 연유한다. 동양인에게 많은 병으로, 대부분 젊은 남성, 특히 장년기 남성에게서 나타난다. 원인은 알 수 없으나 흡연이 병의 악화를 초래한다. 사지의 동맥과 정맥에 염증이 일어나 혈전이 생기면 내강을 막아 혈액이 흐르지 못하게 되어 그 앞의 말초조직이 괴사에 빠지거나 손발이 차갑고, 손가락-발가락이 보라색 또는 검은색으로 변한다. 또, 이 증세가 계속되는 동안 손발가락에 통증이 일어나고 궤양이 발생한다. 치료는 증세의 정도와 폐색된 혈관의 부위에 따라 연고를 바르거나 혈관확장제-순환개선제-혈소판응집억제제를 사용하나, 어떤 치료도 효과가 없을 경우 손발가락의 소절단, 드물게는 무릎 이하의 대절단을 해야 한다. 일반적으로 이 병의 예후는 양호하여 혈류가 회복되고 궤양만 치료되면 재발이 적다. |
