Abstract:
Three cases of ulnar post-traumatic aneurysms of the hand as a consequence of occupational injury are reported. In two cases arteriography examination confirmed the presence of ulnar aneurysm while in the third case we performed only Duplex-scanning. To avoid complications treatment was surgical, consisting of resection of the lesion with end-to-end anastomosis. Ulnar artery patency was confirmed by Duplex-scanning in the follow-up period and the patients were able to return to their jobs.
