We, hereby, report a case involving a teenage boy who presented to us with left upper limb pain followed by gradually progressive motor and sensory deficit over 1 month with preceding history of tuberculosis. Examination revealed a palpable, noncompressible, nonpulsatile swelling superior to the lateral third of the clavicle. Imaging through ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the presence of a pseudoaneurysm with compression of the underlying nerves. The child underwent surgical thrombectomy with pseudoaneurysm repair and arteriorrhaphy along with antitubercular medications with complete recovery at 6 months. The tissue staining, nucleic acid amplification tests, and histopathology confirmed TB etiology. Tuberculosis continues to remain a major health concern, especially in the developing world. High index of suspicion is necessary to diagnose such manifestations to avoid catastrophic sequelae.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4103\/apc.apc_156_23","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,3]],"date-time":"2024-04-03T02:00:33Z","timestamp":1712109633000},"page":"363-366","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Tubercular
