Abstract

We report a 16-year-old boy who sustained a gunshot injury on his upper left side of the chest that
resulted in an injury to the left axillary artery and was treated with endovascular repair. An
endovascular repair has been increasingly accepted for the management of hemorrhage in critically ill
trauma patients; using covered endovascular stents provides an alternative modality for both
controlling hemorrhage and preserving flow. In our case, a proper durable repair of an axillary artery
injury was achieved by adopting endovascular procedures, and the stent was successfully used with
normal vascularity for as long as 6 years post-procedure.
