[Operations in patients with giant false aneurysms of upper-limb arteries (clinical case reports)]

False aneurysms of upper-limb arteries are rare pathological conditions in vascular surgery. They are typically caused by various injuries, more often iatrogenic, after endovascular interventions. These pseudoaneurysms can be complicated by ruptures, compression of nerves and nerve plexuses, as well as embolization of the distal arterial bed with the development of limb ischemia. In this article, we summarize the experience of surgical treatment of false aneurysms of upper-limb arteries and describe two clinical case reports of successful surgical management of giant pseudoaneurysms of the brachial and axillary arteries.
