Abstract

The management of a rare midclavicular crossbow bolt injury to the subclavian artery is discussed. Important concepts include the initial clinical diagnosis, operative planning, the surgical approach to the retro-clavicular great vessels, the technical aspects of repair, and postoperative course. A discussion of the reasoning behind an operative vs. endovascular approach is also discussed.
