Transperitoneal laparoscopic retrievement of a migrated prosthetic head after total hip arthroplasty: a case report.

The migration of a prosthetic head during total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a rare complication. Few cases are described in the literature, offering different solutions and surgical approaches for prosthetic head retrievement. Here, we present a case of successful laparoscopic transperitoneal retrieval of a prosthetic head migrated above the right iliac vein after THA with a posterolateral approach.
