Abstract

Common femoral artery stenosis is well appreciated in patients with peripheral arterial disease, but not described following repeated arterial access. We present a case of progressive right common femoral artery stenosis resulting in resting leg ischemia and ulceration that was temporally related to multiple ipsilateral vascular access procedures for recurrent coronary and peripheral diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. We hypothesize that recurrent arterial injury in a setting of diabetes resulted in progressive critical common femoral artery stenosis.
