Aorto-iliac occlusion in women using oral contraceptives. A report of 2 cases

R Hall et al. Br J Surg. 1971 Jul.

Abstract

PIP: 2 case reports of ischamic symptoms from aorto-iliac occlusion in premenopausal women (ages 29 and 44 years) which began during medication with oral contraceptives suggest that oral contraceptives may be dangerous to patients with a latent tendency to arterial disease and that such patients can be identified before complications arise.
