Ergotamine-induced upper extremity ischemia: a case report.

Man Deuk Kim1, Gun Lee, Sung Wook Shin.   

Abstract

Ergotamine-induced limb ischemia is an extremely rare case. We present a case of a 64-year-old man, who developed ischemia on the right upper extremity due to long-term use of Ergot for migraine headache. Angiography revealed diffused, smooth, and tapered narrowing of the brachial artery. The patient was successfully treated with intravenous nitroprusside.
