Atypical mycobacteria in a superficial femoral artery occlusion.

C Determann¹, A T Hill, H Monaghan, S C A Fraser.

Abstract

There is indirect evidence that atherosclerosis may occur in association with bacterial infection. The authors report the case of a young woman who presented with right calf claudication caused by a short occlusion of the superficial femoral artery. Histological examination of the excised segment of artery revealed atheroma and atypical mycobacteria within adventitial caseating granulomata. The possible causes are discussed.
