ResumoA 59-yr-old woman presented with digital ischemia and was found to have a small-bowel malignancy. After resection of the neoplasm, her digital ischemic symptoms resolved. Five years after the operation, she has no evidence either of recurrence of the intestinal malignancy or of the digital ischemia. This report contrasts with earlier studies, which have suggested that patients with digital ischemia associated with malignancy have a poor prognosis.
