Advances in medicine and technology have increased brachial artery utilization for diagnostic and interventional radiology. Hence, detection and assessment of variations in upper extremity vasculature are important regardless of the low surgical intervention rate in the upper extremity. Anomalies of the upper extremity artery are infrequently reported, and anomalies of the brachial artery are even less common. Presented here is a case of developmental failure of the brachial artery. A segment about 2.1 cm from its origin was treated with bypass surgery. This is presented as an uncommon variation of the brachial artery.
医学和技术的进步增加了肱动脉在诊断性和介入性放射学中的应用。因此,无论上肢手术干预率较低,检测和评估上肢血管系统的变异都很重要。上肢动脉异常的报道较少,肱动脉异常则更为罕见。本文介绍了一例肱动脉发育不全的病例。在距其起源约2.1厘米处的一段血管进行了搭桥手术。这被视为肱动脉一种罕见的变异情况。
