Abstrakt:	Vascular complications after arthroscopy are rare and generally present as transient paresthesia most likely due to nervous injury or vasospasm. Rare cases of genicular artery injuries can occur and generally involve the medial genicular artery due to proximity to the right arthroscopic knee hook. This case, however, represents a rare lateral inferior genicular artery injury resulting in a symptomatic pseudoaneurysm. In addition, during the workup, the best visualization of the pseudoaneurysm was possible using duplex ultrasound. The diagnostic information seen on ultrasound was paramount and superseded the findings from conventional angiography and computed tomography angiography, both of which were nonspecific. In brief, this case not only highlights a rare surgical complication but also emphasizes the importance of duplex ultrasound compared with angiography and computed tomography in the workup of pseudoaneurysms. Competing Interests: None.
