Aneurysms of the upper extremity

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1987
Thirty aneurysms in the upper extremity in 28 patients over the last 10 years are reviewed. Analysis showed that false aneurysms develop from penetrating trauma, while true aneurysms tend to arise in parts of the arterial tree exposed to blunt trauma. Penetrating injury to vessels should be thoroughly explored and repaired.

Leiomyosarcoma of the Upper Extremity

Ultrastructural Pathology, 1993
A case of rapidly fatal, high-grade leiomyosarcoma of the upper extremity is described. The pleomorphic appearance of this sarcoma on light microscopy required the use of immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy to establish the morphologic diagnosis and to exclude a diagnosis of other high-grade sarcoma, such as malignant fibrous histiocytoma or ...
