Résumé
High-speed motor vehicle collisions (MVCs) often result in severe musculoskeletal, neurological, and vascular injuries. Among these, azygos vein pseudoaneurysms (AVPs) are a rare and potentially life-threatening vascular complication. Our case study highlights an instance of an AVP arising from a high-velocity MVC, underscoring their critical significance in trauma scenarios. Additionally, this report delves into the complexities of managing AVPs, both traumatic and idiopathic, emphasizing the urgent need for intervention and the intricacies of their treatment.
