Abstract
Cholesterol embolisation after vascular catheterisation occurred in 5 patients. It tended to be associated with difficult manipulation of the catheter within a severely diseased aorta, and a common feature is leg pain with livedo reticularis despite palpable pulses. Confusion, renal failure, and death ultimately ensue.Entities:
