Vascular injuries associated with hip and knee arthroplasty are rare but can result in devastating outcomes for the patient. A sound knowledge of vascular anatomy, potential mechanisms of injury, and diagnosis and management of vascular injuries are vital to an arthroplasty surgeon. Identifying high-risk patients and procedures allows careful preoperative planning, which combined with meticulous intraoperative technique, may help avoid vascular complications. When vascular injuries do occur, early recognition and intervention are critical to an improved outcome.
