Abstract
A false aneurysm of the profunda femoris artery occurred after metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty in 70-year-old woman. At 39 days after the operation, the wound suddenly opened, and a large hematoma was discharged. Eleven tornade coils were inserted into the base of the false aneurysm, and the bleeding was arrested. The prevention and management of this complication are discussed.Entities:
