A case report of a ruptured subclavian artery aneurysm presenting to the emergency department

Abstract

Subclavian artery aneurysms are uncommon and present a diagnostic dilemma. Our patient attended with life-threatening rupture, requiring prompt management. However, lack of on-site facilities and specialist input posed a logistical challenge. The patient was stable enough to allow an urgent transfer to a specialist unit for successful endovascular repair.
