She presented to a local hospital with right shoulder pain and was subsequently urgently transferred to our hospital by helicopter because of suspicion of axillary artery injury. Computed tomography angiography revealed disruption of the right axillary artery. We decided to perform endovascular treatment instead of surgical treatment for axillary artery injury. However, since endovascular treatment via the right femoral artery was impossible, we performed bidirectional (right femoral and right brachial artery approaches) endovascular treatment. We expanded the occluded lesion using a 3.5 mm\u2009\u00d7\u200940 mm sized balloon and placed a 5.0 mm\u2009\u00d7\u200950 mm stent graft (Gore\u00ae Viabahn\u00ae) across the lesion. The final subclavian injection confirmed that distal flow to the brachial artery was preserved and that there was no leakage of contrast medium from the axillary artery.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>We performed endovascular treatment for axillary artery injury secondary to proximal humerus fracture. Although surgical repair is typically performed for this kind of injury, our experience suggests that endovascular treatment might be an option in patients with axillary artery injury.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/ehjcr\/ytaa526","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,5]],"date-time":"2021-01-05T06:03:57Z","timestamp":1609826637000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Bidirectional endovascular treatment for axillary artery injury secondary to proximal humerus fracture: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"5","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5314-5295","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daisuke","family":"Kanda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Medicine and Hypertension, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Kagoshima University, 8-35-1 Sakuragaoka, Kagoshima City, Kagoshima 890-8520, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Itsumi","family":"Imagama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular and Gastroenterological Surgery, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Kagoshima University, 8-35-1 Sakuragaoka, Kagoshima City, Kagoshima 890-8520, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6094-456X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yutaka","family":"Imoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular and Gastroenterological Surgery, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Kagoshima University, 8-35-1 Sakuragaoka, Kagoshima City, Kagoshima 890-8520, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mitsuru","family":"Ohishi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiovascular Medicine and Hypertension, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Kagoshima University, 8-35-1 Sakuragaoka, Kagoshima City, Kagoshima 890-8520, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021021105554435100_ytaa526-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"42","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jse.2007.03.016","article-title":"Proximal humeral fractures: a systematic review of treatment modalities","volume":"17","author":"Lanting","year":"2008","journal-title":"J Shoulder Elbow Surg"},{"key":"2021021105554435100_ytaa526-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1367","DOI":"10.1016\/j.injury.2015.04.026","article-title":"Proximal humerus fracture with injury to the axillary artery: a population-based study","volume":"46","author":"Menendez","year":"2015","journal-title":"Injury"},{"key":"2021021105554435100_ytaa526-B3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"292","DOI":"10.1016\/S1058-2746(98)90058-1","article-title":"Axillary artery injury as a complication of proximal humerus fractures","volume":"7","author":"McLaughlin","year":"1998","journal-title":"J.
