Popis: Key Clinical Message In cases involving an occluded artificial blood vessel graft, thrombosis of the vessel can cause lower limb ischemia. When thromboembolism develops, it is essential to rule out the complete occlusion of an artificial blood vessel graft as the cause. Abstract A 60‐year‐old woman with bilateral superficial femoral artery occlusion underwent femoral‐popliteal bypass surgery. Six months later, left vascular prosthesis occlusion occurred; 1.5 years later, an occlusive embolus developed in the deep femoral artery. The proximal prosthesis aspect was detached from the native vessel. The limb was salvaged with bypass surgery.
