We report a case of axillary artery aneurysm with brachial artery embolism in a 60-year-old man who had walked with the assistance of axillary crutches all of his life since poliomyelitis during infancy had left him with lower limb paralysis. We performed bypass grafting from the axillary to brachial artery with exclusion of the aneurysm. An axillary artery aneurysm is rare, but potentially lethal for the upper extremity; therefore, surgical treatment should be considered.
我们报告了一例60岁男性的腋动脉瘤合并肱动脉栓塞病例。该患者自婴儿期患脊髓灰质炎导致下肢瘫痪后,一生都借助腋拐行走。我们进行了腋动脉至肱动脉的旁路移植术,同时排除动脉瘤。腋动脉瘤较为罕见,但对上肢有潜在致命风险;因此,应考虑手术治疗。
