    Injury to the Medial Superior Genicular Artery After Isolated Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Case Report

    No full text
    CASE: A 19-year-old male patient with isolated posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) rupture underwent arthroscopic reconstruction using reinforced synthetic ligament (LARS system). Three weeks postoperatively, he presented with active bleeding from the medial side of his knee, near the proximal interference screw. An angiogram revealed extravasation from the medial superior genicular artery which was successfully embolized. One week later, he returned with active bleeding from the same area, located just under the initial coiling; a second embolization during superselective angiography was successful. CONCLUSION: Although rare, minor vascular injuries are a risk inherent to PCL surgery. Copyright © 2021 by The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Incorporated
