CTICasesSubclavian Artery Occlusion due to Clavicle Fracture (Traumatic)
Imaging findings
Clavicle fracture with associated abrupt occlusion of the subclavian artery, distal reconstitution, and subcutaneous gas are observed. Coronal views confirm the subclavian artery is compromised.
Key takeaways
While clavicle fractures are common in trauma, they can rarely cause severe associated injuries like complete subclavian artery occlusion. Imaging is crucial for identifying such vascular complications that necessitate emergent surgical repair (e.g., bypass grafting).
