This case report evaluates current diagnostic and treatment approaches for intrapelvic acetabular migration, focusing on the rare but serious complication of acute limb ischemia following hip arthroplasty. A 67-year-old female with a history of total hip arthroplasty 10 years ago presented with acute limb ischemia after experiencing a traumatic event 72 hours prior, which had caused displacement of her hip prosthesis.

Background And Aims: An exaggerated hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation is observed in hypertensive patients, and its attenuation proves challenging. The role of oral ivabradine, a unique heart rate-lowering drug with a favorable hemodynamic profile, is not yet studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of oral ivabradine on the attenuation of hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation in hypertensive surgical patients assessed by rate pressure product (RPP), which is a very reliable indicator of myocardial oxygen demand.
