  • Title: Cement arteriovenogram after hip arthroplasty.
    Author: Garríguez-Pérez D, García-Coiradas J, Otero-Otero J, Marco-Martínez F.

    Abstract:
    Modern cement implantation techniques during hip arthroplasty rely on high intramedullary pressures which can result in cement extrusion towards femoral nutrient vessels, and thus, the occurrence of a particular image in postoperative radiographs (bone cement arterio-venogram). We report a case series of 14 patients in whom a bone cement arterio-venogram was observed after undergoing a cemented hip arthroplasty. No local or systemic complications developed after cementing nor during a mean follow-up of three years. Bone cement arterio-venogram is a radiologic sign that indicates a good cement pressurisation during surgery and is not associated to medical complications or periprosthetic femoral fractures.
