Abstract

The subclavian artery aneurysm is not a commonly seen peripheral aneurysm. We treated 7 cases in recent 13 years. There were 4 tramatic pseudoaneurysms and 2 atherosclerotic aneurysms. Four aneurysms were resected and replaced by PTFE or Dacron vascular prostheses. Two were treated by arterial repair. Good long-term outcome was obtained.
