Vasospastischer Verschluss der Arteria femoralis superficialis nach chronischem Ergotaminkonsum

Abstract: Nowadays iatrogenic ergotism of the limbs is a rare diagnosis. An exact medical history and typical duplex sonographic findings confirm the diagnosis even if characteristic risk factors are missing. The first therapeutic measure in case of claudication is for ergotamine to be stopped. In case of critical ischaemia or gangrene immediate vasodilator therapy, e. g. with prostaglandine E1, is indicated.
