Abstract
We present a case of rectus hematoma occurring in the setting of transfemoral cardiac catheterization. This is a potentially deadly complication that is under-reported and under-diagnosed. The goal of this article is to present a case of rectus hematoma alongside a comprehensive review of the literature.
