False aneurysm of the external iliac artery following hip endoprosthesis

H Tkaczuk. Acta Orthop Scand. 1976 Jun.

Abstract

A false aneurysm developed from the external iliac artery within the pelvic cavity following total hip surgery when methylmethacrylate cement had been used to fix the cup. The aneurysm was probably caused by a cement spicule which had entered the pelvis and had come into contact with the external iliar artery.
