Quantification and severity grading of femoral vessel compression by adverse reactions to metal debris in metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty

CONCLUSIONS: Extra-luminal compression of the femoral vessels was found in >75% of patients with ARMD. Although it is not clear whether revision for femoral vessel compression is required, quantification of FV compression may be useful for surgeons and radiologists considering revision for ARMD.PMID:37545332 | DOI:10.1177/11207000231190738
