Endovascular procedures that use a hydrophilic polymer-coated device carry a risk of embolization and ischemic complications when used intravascularly. Because these coatings are increasingly used worldwide, it is important to identify potential adverse effects early. Cutaneous complications of hydrophilic polymer emboli are rare and not commonly described in the literature. Therefore, we report a case of hydrophilic polymer embolization with cutaneous findings in a patient who underwent a recent transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
