  • Title: [Embolism of the humeral artery originating in a thrombosed axillo-femoral bypass].
    Author: Barba A, Escribano JV, García-Alfageme A.
    Journal: Angiologia; 1992; 44(3):107-9. PubMed ID: 1636926.
    Abstract:
    A case of a patient, with acute arterial ischemia at the upper limb is reported. On this case, ischemia was caused by humeral arterial embolism. The embolic origin was focused on the proximal end of a thrombosed axillofemoral bypass. After a rude manipulation during surgical procedure, part of the thrombus, following the sanguineous current, occluded the humeral artery. Patient underwent an emergent surgery. Posterior course was good. Histology showed a re-epithelialized, ancient thrombus. Cardiologic studies and angiography showed no others embolic focuses.
