Abstract
A 35-year-old drug abuser inadvertently injected adulterated heroin into her left femoral artery and presented with critical ischaemia of her left leg. Treatment with intravenous Iloprost, a stable prostacycline analogue, combined with Heparin, produced a dramatic improvement in her circulation within 4 h.
