Abstract. * Axillary artery injury is an uncommon but potentially devastating injury. * Early diagnosis, prompt exposure, and careful control of bleeding are critical to achieving a positive outcome. * Early vascular surgical intervention may mitigate the potential for mortality caused by exsanguination or loss of limb from ischemia.
