Gangrene can be found any place in the body where tissue is without adequate blood supply and has become necrotic (dead). It is usually found on external parts of the body, most commonly found on the toes, fingers, feet and hands, but there can also be gangrene in internal organs, such as the bowel or appendix and gallbladder.
