Abstract

vascular complications of humeral osteochondromas are extremely rare .We describe a rare case of 16 year old boy who presented to orthopedic OPD with complaints of swelling,which on radiological workup revealed sessile osteochondroma with pseudoaneurysm of brachial artery .The diagnosis was based on systematic analyses of plain radiograph of arm,ultrasound,computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging,as well as local clinical status in form of a pulsating soft tissue mass.This case demonstrates that for all cases of large osteochondromas ,neurovascular complications are to be looked for,even in unusual locations.
