ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION:

The incidence of vascular injury associated with knee arthroplasty is scarce, but, when they occur, the consequences are serious.

OBJECTIVES:

Describe the incidence of vascular lesions in our center and evaluate time to diagnosis, resolution and follow-up. MATERIALS AND

METHODS:

Retrospective cohort during the 2010-2019 period of primary arthroplasties and knee revision. The incidence of vascular lesions and their demographic characteristics were analyzed. Type of lesion, diagnostic method and treatment were recorded. It was evaluated in distant follow-up of pain and functionality.

RESULTS:

7.940 primary total knee arthroplasty and revision surgeries were recorded, and a report of 7 emergency cases for vascular lesions was also recorded, with an incidence of 0.088%. 3 vascular lesions were caused by direct laceration of the popliteal artery, 1 case of thrombosis of the popliteal artery and 3 cases of pseudoaneurysmal lesion of the superior genicular artery. Three vascular lesions that occurred in primary arthroplasty were immediately repaired by a vascular surgeon. Pseudoaneurysm lesions and thrombosis were resolved by angiographic procedure.

DISCUSSION:

Vascular complications around the knee are rare. Time to diagnosis and treatment is essential. Digital angiography is a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. There are various repair techniques, whether it's embolization, cauterization, stenting or endoprosthesis; therefore, digital angiography is a safe method with a low complication rate.

CONCLUSION:

The incidence of vascular lesions in knee arthroplasty in our center is very low. The cases were diagnosed and resolved early, without registering subsequent complications with good functional results in distant follow-up.
