Abstract
Brachiocephalic trunk (BCT) aneurysms are rare but very important since they pose a significant threat to life and limbs due to the risk of rupture, embolization, or compression of the adjacent structures. We now present a case of a BCT aneurysm with tracheal compression leading to difficult ventilator weaning.Galicia Clínica by Sociedad Gallega de Medicina Interna is licensed under a Creative Commons Reconocimiento-NoComercial-SinObraDerivada 4.0 Internacional License.
