Abstract

Editor—Psoas haematoma has been previously reported, 1– 3 but the overall incidence of this rare complication is not clear. We describe a retroperitoneal haematoma without lumbar neuropathy after continuous psoas compartment block (CPCB), in a 77-yr-old man who underwent total knee replacement (TKR) and was treated with enoxaparin for a deep venous thrombosis (DVT).
