Abstract:
Vascular intrapelvic complications due to total hip arthroplasty failure are uncommon, with less than 30 cases reported in the literature. Herein, we report a case of unusual asymptomatic delayed vascular complication after 10 years from right total hip arthroplasty. A man in mid-50s, with multiple comorbidities including end-stage renal disease. The patient was admitted for the renal transplant surgery. Intraoperatively, right external iliac artery pseudoaneurysm was discovered, which required the transplantation to be done on the left side. After recovery from the renal transplant surgery, the patient underwent resection of the right external iliac artery pseudoaneurysm with primary anastomosis by vascular surgery, with resection of the migrated screw by orthopaedic surgery.
