Surgical Treatment of Intrapelvic Pseudotumour after Hip Resurfacing Arthroplasty: Case Report and Literature Review

Figure 4

Four images from the first step of the surgery are shown. After a midline longitudinal infraumbilical approach, the left paracolic gutter was addressed (a) to obtain access to the retroperitoneum (b); a cystic tumour was observed in intimate contact with the iliopsoas muscle and the femoral nerve and vessels (c). The pseudotumour was punctured, and a grey milky-like fluid was obtained; then, the tumour was completely resected (d).
