Axillary Artery Injury Associated with Proximal Humerus Fracture: A Report of 6 Cases
Proximal humerus fractures are common, but associated injury of the axillary artery is uncommon. The majority of published blunt traumatic axillary artery injuries are associated with anterior glenohumeral dislocation; a few are associated with isolated proximal humerus fractures or fracture-dislocation. Experience within our institution demonstrates that axillary artery injury is often unreco...
متن کاملAxillary artery injury with proximal humerus epiphyseal separation: a rare case report
Fracture of the proximal humerus associated with vascular injury has rarely been reported in children, and only two cases have been reported in the literature. In adults this combination has been reported more frequently. We present the case of a 14 year old boy with proximal humeral epiphyseal separation and axillary artery injury.
متن کاملAxillary Aneurysm Presenting as a Brachial Plexus Palsy
R. W., an 82 year old man, presented with a painful weakness of the right upper limb following a fall over an armchair. Chest radiography showed "a right apical shadow" and a presumptive diagnosis of Pancoast's tumour was made. Both bronchoscopy and mediastinoscopy were normal. Two weeks later a repeated clinical examination revealed a mass in the right axilla (8 x 8 cm in diameter). The right ...
متن کاملAxillary artery injury secondary to proximal humerus fractures: a case report and literature review
Axillary artery injury associated with proximal humerus fractures was rare clinically, which exhibited varying clinical manifestations. In this study, an 80-year-old woman suffered from axillary artery injury secondary to proximal humerus fracture was presented. This case exhibited large ecchymosis in the left upper limb and chest skin. A left 4-part proximal humerus fracture dislocation inferi...
متن کاملTraumatic Pseudoaneurysm of Axillary Artery Combined with Brachial Plexus Injury
Traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the axillary artery combined with brachial plexus injury is extremely rare. The factors that influence the symptoms and functional recovery related to this condition are unclear. Nine patients who had sustained this trauma were surgically treated at our unit between June 1999 and November 2010. The cause of trauma, symptoms, signs and examinations of neurological and...
