Successful Treatment of a Rare Complication in a Heart Transplant Recipient: Spontaneous Axillary Artery Bleeding.

ABSTRACT

Spontaneous atraumatic axillary artery bleeding is an unusual clinical entity. Axillary artery bleeding is associated with a high mortality rate. Vascular fragility is defined as a decrease in blood vessel resistance, and increased vascular fragility is one of the reasons for arterial bleeding. In this report, we present a case of spontaneous axillary artery bleeding in a heart transplant recipient.
