Does endovascular repair of post-traumatic thoracic vascular injury of the subclavian/axillary arteries followed by brachial plexus injury improve outcome?

Traumatic injuries to the axillary artery or subclavian artery along with a brachial plexus injury are infrequent. Although the traditional management has been conservative because of robust collaterals, the functional improvement of the limb depends on the degree of brachial plexus injury and on the revascularization status. We report three cases of endovascular repair post-traumatic axillo-subclavian artery injuries followed by brachial plexus injury with good functional outcomes.
