Axillary artery aneurysms are an uncommon upper extremity pathology. While trauma is the most common cause, degenerative aneurysms may occur in high-flow vascular conditions, such as upper extremity arteriovenous fistulas. Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are a rare cause.
We herein describe a 41-year-old male with multiple congenital high-flow AVMs in the left upper extremity who presented with an asymptomatic axillary artery aneurysm. The aneurysm was successfully treated with open resection and revascularization using a reversed basilic vein interposition graft.
Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of an axillary artery aneurysm in patients with upper extremity AVMs.
腋动脉瘤是一种罕见的上肢疾病。虽然创伤是最常见的病因,但退行性动脉瘤可能发生于高流量血管病变,如上肢动静脉瘘。动静脉畸形(AVM)是一种罕见的病因。
我们在此描述一名41岁男性,其左上肢患有多处先天性高流量AVM,出现了无症状腋动脉瘤。该动脉瘤通过开放切除并用倒置的贵要静脉间置移植进行血运重建,成功得到治疗。
临床医生应意识到上肢AVM患者发生腋动脉瘤的可能性。
