Four cases of subclavian artery occlusion occurring 5-17 years after irradiation for breast carcinoma are presented. Although arterial insufficiency is a rarely reported sequel to radiotherapy, it may be the cause of pain and disability in the upper extremity in a postmastectomy patient. Particular attention should be paid to the presence of a bruit over the subclavian and axillary arteries. Arteriography will often reveal a short, segmental lesion of the subclavian artery that frequently can be repaired surgically.
本文报告了4例乳腺癌放疗后5 - 17年发生锁骨下动脉闭塞的病例。尽管动脉供血不足是放疗后很少报道的后遗症，但它可能是乳房切除术后患者上肢疼痛和功能障碍的原因。应特别注意锁骨下动脉和腋动脉处有无杂音。动脉造影常显示锁骨下动脉有一段短的节段性病变，通常可通过手术修复。
