  • Title: A rare brachial artery pseudoaneurysm 13 years after excision of a humeral osteochondroma.
    Author: Tobias AM, Chang B.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 2004 Apr; 52(4):419-22. PubMed ID: 15084890.
    Abstract:
    Pseudoaneurysms resulting from vascular impingement by osteochondromas are extremely rare. The authors detail the case of a 19-year-old man who represents the third known report in the English literature of a brachial artery pseudoaneurysm associated with a humeral osteochondroma. In patients presenting with a painful upper arm mass and a history of multiple hereditary exostoses, one must have a high index of suspicion for pseudoaneurysm.
