Vascular compromise following subcapital fracture of femoral neck: a case report.

We present a case of vascular compromise from an intracapsular hip fracture, which has not previously been documented. Management involved Austin–Moore hemiarthroplasty and arterial repair with long saphenous vein patch. We emphasise the importance of considering such complications due to potential limb loss from acute arterial insufficiency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
