Large-vessel disease in a black diabetic: a case report.
1980
A case of a middle-aged Black woman with maturity-on-set diabetes is described. The patient had had a cerebrovascular accident and subsequently developed thrombosis of the descending thoracic aorta, with extension into the left subclavian artery and emboli in the right femoral and left brachial arteries. Occlusive large-vessel disease rarely occurs in Black diabetics. Vascular disorders and haemostatic factors in Black and White diabetics are discussed.
