Iatrogenic vascular injury during hip fracture surgery is a rare complication, with infrequent reports of injury during the procedure of cepahalomedullary nailing. We describe a case report of injury to the superior gluteal artery which occurred during insertion of a nail for prophylactic fixation of an incomplete femur fracture secondary to alendronate use. We describe the anatomy of the arterial branches, the postoperative course, and the management strategy and hope this will increase awareness of these rare injuries.
髋部骨折手术期间的医源性血管损伤是一种罕见的并发症，关于髓内钉固定手术过程中损伤的报道很少。我们描述了一例在为预防使用阿仑膦酸盐继发的不完全股骨骨折而插入髓内钉时发生的臀上动脉损伤病例报告。我们描述了动脉分支的解剖结构、术后病程以及处理策略，希望这能提高对这些罕见损伤的认识。
