Obturator foramen bypass for infective groin caused by closure device.
Asian cardiovascular & thoracic annals(2017)
Abstract
A 69-year-old man underwent carotid artery stenting through the right femoral artery with a percutaneous vascular closure device for hemostasis. Eleven days later, an infective femoral artery pseudoaneurysm was diagnosed by computed tomography. At surgery, a defect in the femoral artery was observed, corresponding to the remnants of the closure device. Removal of the foreign material, debridement, wound irrigation, and arterial patch plasty were performed, but the infection and leg ischemia did not improve. After several failed attempts to revascularize and control the infection, obturator foramen bypass was performed. The postoperative course was uneventful, indicating the usefulness of this procedure.
