Vascular injuries are an uncommon but significant complication of total hip arthroplasty. We present a case of femoral artery rupture through an atherosclerotic plaque during primary total hip arthroplasty and a review of the published literature. The early recognition and prompt treatment of this complication can reduce the mortality and morbidity associated with this injury.
血管损伤是全髋关节置换术一种罕见但严重的并发症。我们报告了1例初次全髋关节置换术中因动脉粥样硬化斑块导致股动脉破裂的病例,并对已发表的文献进行了综述。对该并发症的早期识别和及时治疗可降低与此损伤相关的死亡率和发病率。
