Giriş ve Amaç: Çocukluk çağında brakiyal arter anevrizmaları oldukça nadir görülür. Brakiyal arter anevrizma ve psödoanevrizmalarında temel risk distal iskemik komplikasyonların gelişmesidir. Kliniğimizde brakiyal arter psödoanevrizması nedeniyle ameliyat edilmiş olan 9 infant olgu sunularak tedavi sonuçları tartışılmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Kliniğimizde 2005-2010 yılları arasında psödoanevrizma tanısı ile cerrahi girişimde bulunulan ve yaşları 3 ay ile 13 ay arasında değişen 9 olgu hastane kayıtlarından geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Radyolojik olarak psödoanevrizma tanısı konulan olgular, cerrahi girişim için endikasyon kabul edildi.Bulgular: Altı kız, 3 erkek toplam 9 hasta değerlendirmeye alındı. Hastaların tamamı kliniğimize dış merkezlerden fizik muayenede anevrizma kesesinin palpe edilmesi sonrası gönderilmişti. Hastaların yaşları 3 ay ile 13 ay arasında değişmekteydi. Dört hastada sol kol, beş hastada sağ kol brakial arter peudoanevrizması saptandı. Doppler ultrasonografi ile değerlendirilen hastalardaki psödoanevrizma kesesi görüntülendi.Sonuç: Infant döneminde gözlenen brakiyal arter psödoanevrizmaları çoklu venöz girişimler sonrası nadir görülen bir komplikasyondur. Bu olguların tedavilerinde erken tanı ve cerrahi rekonstrüksiyon, gelişebilecek iskemi komplikasyonunu önleme açısından oldukça önemlidir. Olgularımızda da bu nedenle antekubital yerleşimli brakiyal arter psödoanevrizmaları cerrahi olarak onarıldı, ameliyat sonrası izlemleri normaldi.
Objective: Brachial arterial aneurysms are relatively uncommon in childhood. Development of the distal ischemic complications is the main risk in brachial arterial aneurysm and pseudoaneurysms. Nine infants who had surgery for brachial artery pseudoaneurysm in our clinic were reported and the results of the treatment are discussed.Material and Methods: Nine patients who were operated for pseudoaneurysms at our clinic between 2005 and 2010 were evaluated retrospectively from hospital records. Radiological diagnosis of pseudoaneurysms was considered as an indication for surgery.results: A total of 9 patients were evaluated, and six were girls. Pseudoaneurysms were located in the right arm in five patients. All the cases were referred from other pediatric centers. conclusion: Brachial arterial pseudoaneurysms in infants are a rare complication after multiple venous punctures. Early diagnosis and surgical reconstruction of these cases are very important for the prevention of ischemic complication. Brachial artery pseudoaneurysms with ultrasonographic diagnosis were repaired surgically at our clinic to prevent ischemic complications

If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography.
