概要 | A 71-year-old female had worked on a farm in the mountains and noticed itching of the left 3rd toe. She visited a local hospital due to a color change to purple in this area. Attachment of a tick was observed between the left 2nd and 3rd toes, and it was extracted. However, due to persistent pain, she was referred to our department of cardiovascular medicine for close examination and treatment. Lower extremity angiography showed that vascular visualization was poor in the area supplied by the arteries distal to the tick bite site, but the other blood vessels of the toe were clearly visualized. Toe amputation was performed and pathological examination of a surgical specimen revealed that most blood vessels near the necrosis were occluded by thrombi. We speculated that tick bite reactions were associated with thrombogenic vasculopathy. This report shows a patient who developed toe necrosis due to poor blood circulation after an interdigital tick bite. |
