Brachial Artery Reconstruction After Chainsaw İnjury

86 enetrating brachial vascular injuries constitute a particular workload of the rural trauma clinics. The majority of the penetrating injuries are caused by the stab (57%), gunshots (29%), and various sharp objects (7%). The remaining 6% represents other injuries like dog bites, or car accidents.1 In this report, we present a rare case of a logging accident in which the forearm was cut by a chainsaw. The brachial artery was disrupted, and it was repaired by the interposition of an autologous vein graft.
