  • Title: Gluteal necrosis and paraplegia following postoperative bilateral internal iliac artery occlusion.
    Author: Senapati A, Browse NL.
    Journal: J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino); 1990; 31(2):194-6. PubMed ID: 2341478.
    Abstract:
    Complications associated with occlusion of the internal iliac arteries are seen less commonly than those following occlusion of the external iliac arteries, because the pelvis has a good collateral circulation. This paper describes a case of severe gluteal necrosis, paraplegia and acute renal failure following an aorto-bifemoral bypass, which we believe was caused by bilateral iliac artery and pelvic collateral circulation occlusion.
