Abstract
Axillary artery injury following anterior dislocation of the shoulder in children is a rare complication often considered as iatrogenic. We report the case of a pseudo-aneurysm of the axillary artery in a 5-year-old boy that appeared four months after a shoulder dislocation that was reduced in an ambulatory setting. Although this is an uncommon vascular complication, we emphasize the need for short-term and long-term follow-up in these children to avoid missing a pseudo-aneurysm of the axillary artery.
