Left External Iliac and Common Femoral Artery Occlusion Following Blunt Abdominal Trauma without Associated Bone Injury
Blunt abdominal trauma may cause peripheral vascular injuries. However, blunt abdominal trauma rarely results in injuries to the external iliac and common femoral arteries, which often stem from regional bone fractures. Here, we present the case of a patient who had experienced trauma in the lower...

| description | Blunt abdominal trauma may cause peripheral vascular injuries. However, blunt abdominal trauma rarely results in
injuries to the external iliac and common femoral arteries, which often stem from regional bone fractures. Here, we
present the case of a patient who had experienced trauma in the lower abdominal and groin area three months
before presenting to the hospital, but these injuries did not involve bone fractures and had been managed
conservatively. The patient came to the hospital because of left lower leg claudication that gradually became
severe. Computed tomography angiography confirmed total occlusion of the external iliac and common femoral
arteries. The patient underwent femorofemoral bypass grafting and was discharged uneventfully. |
