title: False aneurysm of the radial artery.
abstract: A 22-year-old man presented a large false aneurysm of the radial artery in the middle third of the forearm. A segment of the artery was resected and replaced with a vein graft. This lesion is uncommon, but should always be treated early because complications can be severe.
