Ergotism may cause isolated lower-extremity arterial stenoses that appear amenable to angioplasty but that will recur if the causative agent is not withdrawn. A case of femoral-popliteal stenosis caused by surreptitious ergot ingestion is presented. The lesion initially responded to angioplasty but quickly recurred, whereupon discovery of ergot use and withdrawal of the compound led to the disappearance of symptoms.
麦角中毒可能导致孤立的下肢动脉狭窄，这种狭窄看似适合血管成形术，但如果不消除致病因素，狭窄将会复发。本文报告一例因偷偷服用麦角而导致股腘动脉狭窄的病例。该病变最初对血管成形术有反应，但很快复发，随后发现麦角的使用并停用该化合物后，症状消失。
