Summary: A 49-year-old man was diagnosed with pre-fibrotic myelofibrosis after acute left lower-limb ischemia requiring amputation and portal vein thrombosis. After surgery he developed heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) with venous thromboembolism, successfully treated with argatroban followed by dabigatran. Our systematic review of the literature supports the use of dabigatran for suspected HIT.

Though there have been multiple cases of arterial thrombosis and gangrene of limbs reported following COVID-19 infections, there has not been any case reported following COVID-19 vaccinations. Here we reported a case of acute lower limb ischemia following COVID-19 vaccination in a 32 year male with no co-morbidities. The clinical symptoms and signs related to lower limb ischemia started 2 weeks after COVID-19 vaccination. Despite anticoagulation, thrombo embolectomy and intraluminal catheter guided thrombolysis, patient’s left forefoot became gangrenous and had to be amputated.

A case report of type 2 diabetic patient with critical limb ischemia (CLI) after successful endovascular revascularization is reported. The diagnosis of CLI was established according to clinical data and results of lower limb ischemia assessment by non-invasive methods. The unique feature of this case is presentation of results of the new method of lower limb ischemia assessment fluorescent angiography in near infrared range using indocyanine green (ICG). Following parameters of fluorescent angiography in near infrared range are analyzed in different regions of interest: Tstart(sec) the time of fluorescence occurrence (Istart, unit) in the analyzed area after intravenous administration of ICG; Tmax (sec) time to achieve maximum fluorescence (Imax, unit) after intravenous injection of ICG; Tmax Tstart (sec) the time difference between Imax and Istart. In this clinical case, the time of achievement Istart, Imax, Tmax Tstart in different regions of interest decreased after successful endovascular revascularization of lower limb arteries.
