Aneurysmal disease can occur in any vessel in the body and occur most commonly the aorta, cerebral and popliteal arteries; however, aneurysms of the digital artery remain a rare presentation. They form an important differential diagnosis in any patient presenting with a mass in the hand. This report presents the case of a 64-year-old man with a true aneurysm of the common palmar digital artery who underwent successful repair, following excision and end to end anastomosis. Only 21 cases of true digital artery aneurysm have been reported; we review the literature pertaining to the diagnosis and management of digital artery aneurysms since they were first described by Baruch et al in 1977.
动脉瘤性疾病可发生于体内任何血管，最常见于主动脉、脑动脉和腘动脉；然而，指动脉动脉瘤的表现仍然罕见。它们是任何手部出现肿块患者的重要鉴别诊断。本报告介绍了一例64岁男性患者，其掌侧总指动脉真性动脉瘤经切除并端端吻合后成功修复。自1977年Baruch等人首次描述以来，仅报告了21例指动脉真性动脉瘤；我们回顾了有关指动脉动脉瘤诊断和治疗的文献。
