  • Title: Therapeutic options in subclavian artery disease.
    Author: Thompson MM, Sayers RD, Budd JS, London NJ, Bell PR.
    Journal: J R Coll Surg Edinb; 1992 Dec; 37(6):377-80. PubMed ID: 1491369.
    Abstract:
    Chronic ischaemia of the upper limb secondary to subclavian artery disease is uncommon. These patients may present with a variety of symptoms caused by cerebrovascular or upper limb hypoperfusion. If these symptoms are severe, revascularization may be required. This may be accomplished by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty or surgery. The experience of the management of these patients has been reviewed to document their presentation, treatment and outcome.
