Abstract

Arteriosclerotic aneurysms of the axillary artery are very rare. A 69-year-old male patient presented with complaints of numbness in the right upper extremity and forearm and a swelling in the axilla. He had a nine-year history of aneurysmectomy with graft interpositioning for a left-sided axillary artery aneurysm. A giant axillary artery aneurysm was detected by Doppler ultrasonography (40x50 mm) and dynamic computed tomography of the thorax (44 mm). Under general anesthesia, the aneurysm was resected. Histopathologic examination showed arteriosclerotic degenerative changes. Following an uneventful course, the patient was discharged on the seventh postoperative day.

Özet

Arteriyosklerotik aksiller arter anevrizmaları çok nadirdir. Altmış dokuz yaşında erkek hasta, sağ kol ve önkolda uyuşma ve koltuk altında şişlik yakınmasıyla başvurdu. Hastaya, dokuz yıl önce sol aksiller arter anevrizması nedeniyle anevrizmektomi ve greft interpozisyonu yapılmıştı. Dubleks ultrasonografide 40x50 mm, dinamik toraks bilgisayarlı tomografide 44 mm boyutlarında aksiller arter anevrizması saptandı. Genel anestezi altında, aksiller arter anevrizması rezeke edildi. Histopatolojik incelemede arteriyosklerotik dejeneratif değişiklikler görüldü. Ameliyat sonrası dönemi sorunsuz geçiren hasta yedinci günde taburcu edildi.
