“…Transcatheter or ultrasound-guided percutaneous injection of thrombin, coil, or fibrin adhesive has been reported to occlude a similar pseudoaneurysm [ 20 22 ]. Transcatheter embolization with a coil provided an easier and less invasive technique than open surgical repair in this case [ 15 , 16 ].…”

“…Injuries and pseudoaneurysms of the PFA and its branches are very rare after THA as the artery is not close to the operation site [ 12 , 14 ]. Some cases resulting from chronic repeated trauma by a projecting screw were reported after intertrochanteric fracture treated by internal fixation with a dynamic hip screw plate [ 15 , 16 ].…”

“…However, there have been rare reports of profunda femoris artery injury from other orthopaedic procedures, such as total hip arthroplasty [21][22][23][24][25][26] and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction 27 . Cases of profunda femoris injury by osseous fragments after hip or pelvic trauma have also been reported [28][29][30] . PFFassociated vascular injuries have an estimated moderate-tosevere morbidity rate of 10% and an estimated mortality rate of 6.5% 4 .…”

“…Vascular lesion types include compression with blood flow restriction, intimal flap injury with decreased distal flow, intimal or atherosclerotic plaque rupture resulting in arterial thrombosis or thromboembolism, limb ischemia due to surgical ligature, acute hemorrhage by laceration or transection and perforation, and progressive arterial erosion, which produces a pseudoaneurysm or arteriovenous fistula. 1,5,6 Arterial erosion is highly prevalent and results in the formation of a pseudoaneurysm. Our patient suffered two stages of arterial injury.…”
