Abstract

Iliacus abscess is an extremely rare complication of percutaneous transfemoral artery catheterization. This is a report of a case of iliacus abscess and Acinetobacter baumanii sepsis following percutaneous transfemoral artery catheterization. After a 43-day course of intravenous antibiotics treatment and repeated drainage, clinical recovery was achieved, though without complete radiologic resolution.
