Femoral Artery Rupture after Sneezing, Presenting to Emergency Department with Haemorrhagic Shock: A Rare Post Operative Complication

Here we present a case of a 15-year-old patient, a post-operative case of Bilateral osteotomy for Genu Varus, presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) in Haemorrhagic Shock after merely sneezing and spontaneously rupturing his femoral artery.
