We present a case of a young patient, 44 years old, with a pseudoaneurysm of the axillary artery after anterior shoulder dislocation. The early diagnosis of axillary artery lesions after trauma is difficult in some cases. It's important to mention the possibility of accidental vascular surgery during reduction of the shoulder dislocation. In consequence, in all patients with a penetrating or blunt trauma of the shoulder is required a neurological and vascular examination; in any suspicions, an additional arteriography and computer tomography is indicated. Early repairs of vascular and neurological lesions are very important for the outcome of these patients.
