Recurrent hemarthrosis after total knee arthroplasty
Rukavina, A., Kerkhoffs, G.M.M.J., Schneider, P. et al.Knee
This report describes a case of spontaneous recurrent hemarthrosis of the knee that presented 4 weeks after total knee arthroplasty. Femoral arteriography showed a false aneurysm of a branch of the inferior lateral geniculate artery. Therapeutic embolization of the arterial branch was performed using three platinum coils with good clinical result and good knee joint function. Hemarthrosis has not recurred since embolization.
