Abstract

The clinical differentiation of pulsatile supraclavicular mass is difficult. It could be aneurysm, buckling, and transmitted pulsation due to neck masses. Aneurysm is the most common impression, and angiography is usually requested. We report 14 cases of buckling of the great vessels of the neck as the cause of right supraclavicular pulsatile mass. All can be diagnosed with realtime sonography, a noninvasive and accurate method.
