Abstract
Ulnar artery aneurysm is a rare entity in the upper extremity. Most common causes for aneurysm of ulnar artery are trauma, infection, immunologic reasons, embolism, congenital connective tissue disorders and atherosclerosis. Since the ulnar artery is entangled with the nerve in the hand region, its diagnosis and treatment is crucial for hand function. There is a high chance for ischemia in the ulnar artery territory due to progressive thrombosis or embolism from the aneurysmal site. We present a case of ulnar artery aneurysm of left-hand palmar aspect which was effectively managed by surgical resection and anastomosis.
