RESUMEN
Los aneurismas de la arteria braquial (AAB) en el contexto de las fistulas arteriovenosas (FAV) en pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica (ERC) son una entidad infrecuente. Al presentarse, ameritan su resección y colocación de injerto autólogo o heterólogo. Se presenta el caso de un paciente de 57 años de edad con antecedente de enfermedad renal crónica en hemodiálisis mediante fístula arteriovenosa (FAV) braquial izquierda, con aparición de masa pulsátil proximal a la FAV de 7 x 5 cm de nueve meses evolución. Se diagnosticó AAB mediante ultasonido doppler arterial. Se practicó resección del aneurisma y anastomosis con injerto de politetrafluoroetileno (PTFE) con evolución satisfactoria. Los AAB en pacientes con ERC son infrecuentes y deben sospecharse cuando aparece una masa pulsátil adyacente a una FAV. Su tratamiento está indicado en lesiones > 3 cm o en pacientes con sintomas compresivos(AU)
ABSTRACT
Brachial artery aneurysms (BAA) in patients with renal chronic disease (RCD) and arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) are an infrequent entity. When they are presented, they merit resection and placement of autologous or heterologous graft. We present the case of a 57-year-old patient with history of chronic renal disease treated with hemodialysis by left brachial arteriovenous fistula (AVF), presenting pulsatile mass proximal to AVF which measures 7 x 5 cm, with evolution of nine months. Diagnosis of BAA was achieved by arterial doppler ultrasound. Aneurism removal and anastomosis with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft was carried out. Patient evolution was uneventful. BAA in patients with RCD are infrequent and should be suspected when a pulsatile mass appears proximal to AVF. Surgical removal is indicated in lessons > 3 cm or patients with compressive symptoms(AU)
