title: [Pseudoaneurysm of the deep femoral artery after osteosynthesis of a pertrochanteric fracture of the femur].
abstract: A woman aged 66 years developed a pseudoaneurysm from the deep femoral artery after osteosynthesis of a pertrochanteric fracture of the femur. During operation, it is important to avoid boring into the soft tissues on the medial aspect of the thigh and a screw of the correct length should be chosen.
