- Abstract
This article, titled "Surgery Quiz - Case 52," discusses the case of a 57-year-old woman who presented with a right inguinal hernia and underwent surgery. During her admission, a plain X-ray was requested and revealed a subclavian artery aneurysm (SCAA). SCAA is a rare condition, with atherosclerosis being the most common cause. Symptoms and complications of SCAA vary depending on the location and size of the aneurysm. The article also discusses diagnostic approaches and treatment options for SCAA, including surgical interventions and endovascular repair.
