Superficial femoral artery injury due to bone fragment of femoral fracture is often overlooked as it occurs only in rare cases of femoral fractures and the onset of symptoms usually happen weeks or even months later. The deep femoral artery, in fact, is more susceptible to injuries associated with femoral fractures. Moreover, a preexisting calcification lesion of the arterial wall might enhance the chance of such arterial injury, a condition that we noticed in the case we are reporting. We will illustrate a rare case of calcified superficial femoral artery injury complicating subtrochanteric femur fracture.
