Spontaneous isolated subclavian artery dissecting aneurysm is rare. This is to our knowledge the first case in the world's literature to report a patient with subclavian artery dissecting aneurysm. Although the endovascular approach of treating subclavian artery pathologies is not challenging, the choice of using a covered stent for this patient was a new attempt in treating subclavian artery dissections. This case report highlights the possibility and safety of using covered stent in treating patients with subclavian artery dissecting aneurysms after reassuring the patency of the cerebral circulation system.

Objective: To investigate differences in arterial involvement patterns on F-FDG PET-CT between predominant cranial and isolated extracranial phenotypes of giant cell arteritis (GCA).
Methods: A retrospective review of F-FDG PET-CT findings was conducted on 140 patients with confirmed GCA. The patients were divided into two groups: the cranial group, which presented craniofacial ischemic symptoms either at diagnosis or during follow-up, and the isolated extracranial group which never exhibited such manifestations.

Background: The management of patients with subclavian artery injury is rapidly evolving from an open to an endovascular approach. We aim to present an analysis of management and a comparison of outcomes according to the type of approach used to treat these challenging injuries.
Methods: Adult patients with subclavian arterial injuries were abstracted from the National Inpatient Sample database from 2012 to 2014 and 2016 to 2021.

A cervical rib is the cause of about 5% of thoracic outlet syndromes (TOS). We report the case of a patient with arterial TOS due to the presence of a cervical rib, managed by combined thoracoscopic and supraclavicular approach. An 18 years old female patient presented with symptoms of arterial TOS.
