Popis: We report the case of a 23-year-old female pedestrian who had been struck by a car and had presented with axillary artery transection in the setting of scapulothoracic dissociation. The initial endovascular repair was compromised by her shoulder instability and had required the addition of bridging stent placement. Caution is advised with endovascular repair in this clinical scenario because of possible stent separation.
