We report the case of a 29 year old male who presented with burning pain in the tips of fingers of left hand and recurrent episodes of amarausis fugax. Examination revealed polycythemia, unilateral clubbing with positive Adson's test in left upper limb. Evaluation revealed thrombosis of the left subclavian artery in CT angiography. Polycythemia rubra vera was found to be the underlying cause.
