Pseudoaneurysms are rare after knee arthroscopy. This case details a pseudoaneurysm on a medial gastrocnemius artery branch following arthroscopic meniscectomy, successfully treated by surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Medical Complications

Background:

  • Knee arthroscopy is a common orthopedic procedure.
  • Pseudoaneurysm formation is a rare but serious complication.
  • Typically, pseudoaneurysms occur in the popliteal or geniculate arteries.

Observation:

  • A 66-year-old patient developed a pseudoaneurysm after arthroscopic meniscectomy.
  • The pseudoaneurysm was located on an arterial branch supplying the medial gastrocnemius muscle.
  • This location is atypical for post-arthroscopic pseudoaneurysms.

Findings:

  • The pseudoaneurysm was successfully diagnosed and managed.
  • Surgical intervention involved resection of the pseudoaneurysm.
  • Ligation of the injured artery was performed for definitive treatment.

Implications:

  • Highlights the potential for atypical pseudoaneurysm locations after knee arthroscopy.
  • Emphasizes the importance of considering vascular complications in patients with persistent knee pain or swelling post-arthroscopy.
  • Reinforces surgical management as an effective treatment for pseudoaneurysms in this context.
