The patient complained of pain in both lower extremities with skin sclerosis. Also, linear hard spots were visible on the abdominal skin of the patient.

In the operating room, aseptically, the patient was treated with intravenous anesthesia and double-limb stem cell transplantation. The lower extremities were disinfected with ethanol and iodine 3 times from the proximal end to the distal end.

Furthermore, the right lower extremity arterial obstruction and peripheral arterial stiffness all returned to normal. After each transplant, the cytokine levels of the patient increased, especially with elevated levels of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α.
