Abstract:
Here, we present the case of an extremely subtle peripheral graft infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus. The lack of local signs and the negativity of all imaging studies, including (99m)Tc-HMPAO-Labelled-Leukocyte Scan which is reported to have 100% sensitivity, delayed the diagnosis and therapy, which were both provided by surgery.
