ABSTRACT
During four years, the authors have observed ten lesions of the sub-clavian artery associated with a fracture of the clavicle. The clinical picture in one case out of two was that of an acute ischemia of the upper limb. The surgical repair has been performed in 8 cases. The thoracic approach was necessary three times. The clavicle was resected in most cases. The prognosis of these lesions depends on the rapidity of their recognition, and of their treatment, and on the fact whether the brachial plexus is involved or not
