Abstract

Posttraumatic psoudoaneurysrns of the subclavian artery are very rare. A 49-year-old woman who had been involved in a car accident ten years before presentation was initially diagnosed with a mediastinal tumor at a local clinic. Exploratory thoracotomy was performed for evaluation and treatment. During the operation, a hematoma was evacuated, and primary repair was undertaken to stop massive bleeding. Computed tomography angiography revealed a pseudoaneurysm of the left subclavian artery. The patient was treated with aneurysmectomy and end-to-end anastomosis. The postoperative course was uneventful.

외상에 의해 발생하는 쇄골하동맥의 가성동맥류는 매우 드물다. 10년전 교통사고를 당한 49세 여자환자는 외부병원에서 직장검진시 우연히 발견한 종격동 종양을 진단받고 본원에서 진단 및 치료 목적으로 개흉술을 시행 받았다. 개흉술하에 종괴의 일부분을 박리하던 중 대량 출혈 소견 보여 출혈 부위를 봉합한 후 혈관촬영을 추가로 시행하였다. 좌측 쇄골하동맥 가성동맥류 진단하에 재수술을 시행하여 동맥류를 절제하고 단단문합하였다. 환자는 술 후 특별한 문제없이 술 후 11일째 퇴원하였다.
