Abstract
Subclavian artery aneurysms are rare peripheral aneurysms. A giant subclavian artery aneurysm can lead to compression of the trachea or brachial plexus, erosion of the lung causing hemoptysis, hoarseness of voice, dysphagia, Horner’s syndrome, and upper extremity deep vein thrombosis. Compression of the trachea and inability to ventilate the patient can be a real challenge for the anesthesiologist and must be anticipated. Computed tomographic angiography is a useful imaging modality for its diagnosis and to rule out additional aneurysms in the body.
