Resumo

A fratura do acrômio com lesão arterial é uma associação rara. O quadro clínico caracteriza-se por dor no ombro, incapacidade funcional e edema do membro acometido, com pulso e temperatura distais diminuídos. A radiografia do ombro e a arteriografia definem o diagnóstico e auxiliam na evolução pós-operatória. Os autores relatam um caso raro de fratura da base do acrômio associada a lesão da artéria ulnar ipsilateral, seu tratamento, bem como a avaliação pré e pós-operatória.

Abstract

Fracture of the acromion and arterial injury are a rare association. The clinical picture is characterized by shoulder pain, functional disability and swelling of the affected limb with decreased distal pulse and temperature. Radiography of the shoulder and arteriography define the diagnosis and assist in postoperative follow-up. The authors report a rare case of fracture of the acromion associated with injury of the ipsilateral ulnar artery and describe its treatment, as well as pre- and postoperative evaluations.
