Cholesterol embolization syndrome (CES) is a rare but systemic severe disease caused by the distal showering of cholesterol crystals after angiography, major surgery, thrombolysis, or anticoagulation. Here, we present a case of a 74-year-old male with a history of coronary artery disease, chronic kidney disease, peripheral vascular disease, antiphospholipid syndrome, and right internal carotid artery occlusion who developed purple discoloration and ulceration involving several toes two months after coronary artery bypass surgery. A broad differential diagnosis for blue toes was considered, and a biopsy was obtained, which revealed an arterial lumen filled with large cholesterol crystal spaces, confirming the diagnosis of CES.
