Pseudoaneurysm of the external iliac artery is a rare late complication after total hip arthroplasty

Vascular injury as a delayed complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA) is rare. We present a case of pseudoaneurysm of the external iliac artery due to chronic irritation from a prominent bone spicule occurring 2 years after revision THA. We successfully managed the patient with open repair, and...
