A large pseudoaneurysm of the superficial femoral artery in a patient with SLE with Salmonella group D infection

Pseudoaneurysm in Salmonella infection is a rare complication of lupus. We describe a 51-year-old woman with lupus who suffered from swelling and painful sensation of right lower limbs. The Doppler ultrasound study revealed a large pseudoaneurysm of right superficial femoral artery and the tissue culture was Salmonella group D. Surgical repair with stent grafting was performed successfully. This vascular complication with Salmonella infection has not been previously described in lupus.
