Superior Gluteal Artery Pseudoaneurysm Caused by Pelvic C-Clamp Blind Application: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
To control such a hemorrhage, a displaced pelvic ring must be rapidly reduced and stabilized with a pelvic binder, an external fixator, or a pelvic clamp. Among them, pelvic clamps can be life-saving but pin malposition may cause vascular complications. We present a case of superior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm caused by AO pelvic C-clamp pin malposition.

Ruptured superior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm with hemorrhagic shock: Case report.
Pseudoaneurysm of the superior gluteal artery (SGA) is very rare and the most common causes are blunt or penetrating pelvic traumas. Although pseudoaneurysm can be asymptomatic at the time of initial trauma, it can be symptomatic weeks, months, even years after initial trauma. We present a case of a ruptured superior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm with hemorrhagic shock twenty days after a bomb ...

We present a case of a pseudoaneurysm of the superior gluteal artery following placement of an iliosacral screw in a patient with an unstable pelvic ring fracture. Percutaneous fixation of posterior pelvic ring injuries is becoming a popular method for pelvic stabilization. Several techniques are available t achieve stability and allow early mobilization in patients with displaced pelvic fractu...
متن کاملBlunt traumatic superior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm presenting as gluteal hematoma without bony injury: A rare case report
Blunt traumatic injuries to the superior gluteal artery are rare in clinic. A majority of injuries present as aneurysms following penetrating trauma, fracture pelvis or posterior dislocation of the hip joint. We reported a rare case of superior gluteal artery pseudoaneurysm following blunt trauma presenting as large expanding right gluteal hematoma without any bony injury. The gluteal hematoma ...
متن کاملEndovascular management of posttraumatic and iatrogenic large pelvic pseudoaneurysms following biopsy: case report
Pelvic traumatic and iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms supplied by the internal iliac artery are very rare but can present with pain, nerve compression, and rupture. Particularly with more chronic pseudoaneurysms, their imaging appearance can be confusing and they can be mistaken for tumors. We present two cases of pelvic pseudoaneurysms supplied by the superior gluteal artery that were initially mist...
متن کاملMetal-on-Metal Total Hip Arthroplasty Associated with Adverse Local Tissue Reaction and Pseudoaneurysm of the Superior Gluteal Artery: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Adverse local tissue reaction (ALTR) and pseudoaneurysm formation are rare but known complications following metal-on-metal hip total hip arthroplasty (THA). We report the first known case in the English literature of a concurrent unilateral ALTR and pseudoaneurysm of the superior gluteal artery in the same patient. Following minimal rise in serum metal ions, an ultrasound of the right hip demo...
