Stiff fingers as an unwanted side effect of intravascular tadalafil gel abuse. Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2014, Volume: 96, Issue:2 The internet provides the public with unregulated access to a wide range of medications. We present the case of a 43-year-old man who purchased oral tadalafil gel on the internet and injected it into his left radial artery. He presented 48 hours after injection with signs of ischaemia distal to the injection site requiring a combination of medical and surgical treatment. This unique case highlights the potential dangers of unregulated access to medication and the consequences of intravascular injection of oral gels. Topics: Adult; Amputation, Traumatic; Anticoagulants; Carbolines; Fingers; Gels; Heparin, Low-Molecular-Weight; Humans; Iloprost; Injections, Intra-Arterial; Ischemia; Male; Phosphodiesterase 5 Inhibitors; Prescription Drug Misuse; Radial Artery; Tadalafil; Vasodilator Agents	2014
Treatment of chronic ischaemia of a replanted thumb with iloprost. Journal of hand surgery (Edinburgh, Scotland), 2002, Volume: 27, Issue:5 A 40-year-old man had chronic ischaemia of his replanted thumb. Angiography revealed occlusion of both digital arteries and weak collaterals. He was treated for 4 weeks with Iloprost which produced a definite and sustained improvement. As the digital arteries remained occluded, the beneficial effect of Iloprost was attributed to increased flow in the microcirculation and collaterals. Topics: Adult; Amputation, Traumatic; Chronic Disease; Humans; Iloprost; Ischemia; Male; Replantation; Thumb; Vasodilator Agents	2002
