Brachial artery aneurysms constitute 0.5% of peripheral aneurysms. These can be true or secondary to trauma or arteriovenous fistulas. These present as an asymptomatic pulsatile mass or may cause symptoms due to compression of adjacent neurological structures. We present a review of the literature on clinical, histological, and therapeutic characteristics of true brachial aneurysms, motivated by the case of a 67-year-old woman with an asymptomatic pulsatile mass dependent on the brachial artery of the left arm who underwent open surgical correction with resection of the aneurysmal sac and interposition of great saphenous vein graft with adequate postoperative results. |
