Axillary artery aneurysm is a rare condition. Though mostly asymptomatic, it should be treated early as it can develop thrombosis, distal embolisation, pressure symptoms or rupture.

Standard treatment of these aneurysms is excision and replacement with an interposition graft. We used reversed saphenous vein as interposition graft between axillary and brachial artery
