Mycotic Pseudoaneurysm of a Superficial Femoral Artery Stent

We present here an interesting case of a mycotic pseudoaneurysm of the superficial femoral artery along with our management of the case and a brief review of the available literature. The particular presentation of this patient will hopefully reinforce the use of prolonged antibiotic therapy for mycotic disease and judicious reexamination of patients whose clinical picture does not immediately fit the framework of our most common diagnoses.
