Prospective registry data were supplemented with case-records, including long-term follow-up. In total, 13 patients suffered PAI during elective surgery and eight during urgent surgery such as fracture fixation or tumour resection. Nine injuries were detected intra-operatively, five within 12 to 48 hours and seven &gt; 48 hours post-operatively (two days to 23 years). <\/jats:p><jats:p> There were 19 open vascular and two endovascular surgical repairs. Two patients died within six months of surgery. One patient required amputation. Only six patients had a complete recovery of whom had the vascular injury detected at time of injury and repaired by a vascular surgeon. Patients sustaining vascular injury during elective procedures are more likely to litigate (p = 0.029). <\/jats:p><jats:p> We conclude that outcomes are poorer when there is a delay of diagnosis and treatment, and that orthopaedic surgeons should develop strategies to detect PAI early and ensure rapid access to vascular surgical support. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015;97-B:192\u20136. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620x.97b2.34353","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,1,27]],"date-time":"2015-01-27T15:12:29Z","timestamp":1422371549000},"page":"192-196","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1302\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Iatrogenic popliteal artery injury in non arthroplasty knee surgery"],"prefix":"10.1302","volume":"97-B","author":[{"given":"K.","family":"Bernhoff","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Uppsala University, SE\r75185, Uppsala, Sweden."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Bj\u00f6rck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uppsala University, SE\r75185, Uppsala, Sweden."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"42","reference":[{"key":"r1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10016-003-0074-2"},{"key":"r2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0741-5214(03)00918-2"},{"key":"r3","first-page":"122","volume":"141","author":"Nachbur B","year":"1979","journal-title":"Clin Orthop Relat Res"},{"key":"r4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.RVI.0000217929.35607.15"},{"key":"r5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1615\/JLongTermEffMedImplants.v21.i2.30"},{"key":"r6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Nishimura A, Fukuda A, Kato K, et al.
