Abstract EN
Acute vascular injuries have been described in relation to high-energy trauma accidents or in patients undergoing surgery in the femoral area.
We describe a healthy patient who sustained a direct, low-energy contusion in the thigh and presented haemodynamic instability.
Arteriography was used to locate the point of bleeding, and embolisation and vessel occlusion were carried out to stop the haemorrhage.
The genetic study identified the COL3A1 gene mutation; accordingly, the patient was diagnosed with the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV (vascular type).
