A chance case of aneurysm of the brachiocephalic trunk suggested a review of the literature on this rare pathology. Stress is laid on the possible asymptomaticity of the lesion and on its frequent chance observation in chest X-rays; the diagnostic procedure, at times particularly complex, may not lead to decisive results but the possibility of aneurysm of the brachiocephalic trunk must be borne in mind in any case so as to avoid gross diagnostic and therapeutic errors.
一例偶然发现的头臂干动脉瘤促使对有关这种罕见病理情况的文献进行回顾。着重强调了该病变可能无症状,以及在胸部X光检查中经常偶然发现;诊断过程有时特别复杂,可能不会得出决定性结果,但无论如何都必须牢记头臂干动脉瘤的可能性,以避免严重的诊断和治疗错误。
