2 Figure 1 A: Arteriogram of left common femoral artery showing occlusion. B: Catheter piece initially removed from body. Note that the catheter had sheared off at the pump motor. C: Fluoroscopy during surgical removal of the retained piece of catheter (arrow points to retained fragment). D: Retained fragment removed at surgery: distal end of catheter including motor pump and blood inlet area.
