Patient with Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome. Case Report of an Intraoperatively Aborted Hip Joint Replacement
Abstract
Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome is a rare congenital disorder. It usually affects one of the lower limbs. It is characterized by the presence of angiomas, venous malformations, hypertrophic varices with arteriovenous communications and hypertrophy of the affected limb, altering in some cases the bone structure. The aim of this presentation is to describe the case of a 54-year-old patient for whom a joint replacement of the left hip had been scheduled for one year and the surgery had to be aborted due to the risk of exsanguination of the patient, and to analyze the literature in this regard.Downloads
