The authors describe a case in which infection developed in a patient after placement of a metallic endoprosthesis in the iliac artery. The patient died of respiratory failure secondary to sepsis. Imaging studies did not reveal an abscess, aneurysm, or stent occlusion. Stent cultures and hemocultures grew Staphylococcus aureus. As with any foreign body, infectious complications may occur after insertion of metallic stents and should be recognized as soon as possible to initiate appropriate therapy.
作者描述了一例患者在髂动脉植入金属内支架后发生感染的病例。该患者死于败血症继发的呼吸衰竭。影像学检查未发现脓肿、动脉瘤或支架闭塞。支架培养和血培养结果显示为金黄色葡萄球菌。与任何异物一样，金属支架植入后可能会发生感染并发症，应尽快识别以便开始适当治疗。
