Vascular complications in orthopaedic surgery are not fre- quent, but they can be severe and occasionally life-threatening. Present technologies make it easier to detect and successfully manage them, provided a high level of clin- ical suspicion is kept. Spontaneous complication is deep venous throm- bosis (DVT), which occurs in 2.5% of patients undergoing hip or knee arthroplasty and can be treated by prophylactic doses of low molecu- lar weight heparin (LMWH). D-Dimer blood test and duplex scanning are the pillars of diagno- sis. LMWH (6000 U twice daily) is standard therapy but in selected cases thrombolysis or surgical venous thrombectomy can be used. Iatrogenic complications come from surgical manoeuvres and instruments; risk factors a...
