Sumario: | We report a case involving an elderly man who successfully underwent superficial femoral artery–anterior tibial artery bypass via the lateral femoropopliteal route following development of a stent infection after placement of a small‐diameter covered stent for a ruptured superficial femoral artery pseudoaneurysm. This report suggests that appropriate treatment strategies for device infection subsequent to device removal are paramount for the prevention of reinfection and preservation of the affected extremity. |
