An 82 year old patient presented with acute limb ischaemia due to thrombosis of a bifurcated endograft (anterior (A) and lateral (B) view on computed tomography). At that time, there was no availability of an intensive care unit bed; an axillofemoral crossover was performed because of the high risk of visceral embolisation for the endovascular approach. Two weeks later, the patient presented with graft infection and COVID symptoms; he is receiving specific treatment and waiting for explantation and new revascularisation.
