Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: True non-traumatic radial artery aneurysms (RAAs) are extremely rare, and few cases have been described. The majority of RAAs are post-traumatic or iatrogenic pseudo-aneurysms following arterial cannulation. However, RAAs due to other causes have also been described. Here a rare case of true idiopathic distal RAA, which was managed by surgical resection and repair with interposition vein graft, is described.
REPORT: A 62 year old female with a known medical history of hypertension and hyperlipidaemia presented with left wrist swelling of one year duration, associated with a pulsatile lump that was increasing in size. Duplex ultrasound and computed tomography angiography revealed a distal RAA. She underwent open surgical resection and repair with interposition vein graft using the distal left cephalic vein. Histopathology of the specimen revealed an aneurysm with atherosclerosis. She recovered well post-operatively with no complications.
DISCUSSION: True idiopathic RAAs are rare. Surgical treatment is almost always recommended in view of the risk of complications. A case of true idiopathic distal RAA is presented here, which was managed successfully by surgical resection and repair with interposition vein graft.
