Percutaneous Continuous Irrigation and Drainage for Infected Obturator Bypass Graft

The treatment for obturator bypass graft infection has been rarely reported and is a surgical challenge because it is difficult to debride infected tissue around the graft located in the deep route and to ensure an alternative revascularization route in patients with a history of inguinal infection. Percutaneous continuous irrigation and drainage is an effective and less-invasive definitive therapy for obturator bypass graft infection.
