Article Synopsis
- Peripheral artery diseases (PAD) and Raynaud's syndrome significantly impact patients' quality of life, potentially leading to severe complications like gangrene and tissue necrosis, necessitating extensive medical care.
- This review examines the latest literature on diagnosing and treating these conditions, focusing on interventional pain treatments and their effectiveness in managing symptoms and improving outcomes.
- In PAD, early conservative treatments are essential, while interventional therapies may be needed as the disease progresses; however, there is varying evidence regarding the effectiveness of certain procedures like sympathectomy.

Hand-foot syndrome (HFS), also known as palmoplantar erythrodysesthesia or acral erythema, is a known adverse effect of chemotherapeutic agents that most commonly presents as palmoplantar dysesthesia and erythematous plaques localized to the palms and soles. Paclitaxel is an uncommon cause of HFS and is notable for its unique presentation on the dorsal hands and feet. We present an unusual case of paclitaxel-induced HFS localized to the dorsal hands of a 66-year-old man with metastatic angiosarcoma.
