We have presented a case of unsuspected PBL in a patient who underwent THRA for suspected osteoarthritis. Our findings emphasize the importance of pre- or intraoperative consultation in case of PBL and thorough pathologic examination of all specimens obtained during routine, elective orthopedic surgeries.
