Abstract:
We describe the management of a 30-year-old male with type I neurofibromatosis who required an above-knee amputation for bleeding, infection, swelling, and multiple severe joint instability. Postoperatively, he continued to bleed from the stump site. Angiography revealed multiple small distal bleeding aneurysms. Hemostasis was eventually achieved with standard microcoil embolization.
