Introduction: Since the end of the nineteen-nineties, cannabis is not only incriminated in the onset of thromboangiitis obliterans but also in inducing artheromatous lesions in young subjects.
Observation: A young, Caucasian, 18 year-old man was referred for cannabis withdrawal in the treatment of arteritis of the left leg.
Discussion: Cannabis is by far the illicite psychoactive substance most consumed by the 15-25 year-olds. Data in the literature, notably since the end of the nineteen-nineties, show that cannabis is accused of provoking arterial disease similar to that which is found in Buerger's disease (or thromboangiitis obliterans) in young subjects of whichever sex.
