Ankle arthroscopy is believed to have the least vascular complications compared with
other types of arthroscopies. We present a case of traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the
anterior tibial artery after ankle arthroscopy, an extremely rare complication that
was treated surgically and had an uneventful recovery.
