Description

<p>The radial artery aneurysm in the anatomical snuff box is very rare. A 70-year-old male was referred to our department with a complain of a painless pulsatile mass in his right wrist. Ultrasonography and angiography confirmed a 13 mm sized saccular shaped radial artery aneurysm in the anatomical snuff box. The operation was successfully performed with resection of the aneurysm and reconstruction of the radial artery by end-to-end anastomosis. The histopathological examination identified it as a true aneurysm.</p>
