• The aberrant right subclavian artery frequently arises from a dilated segment of the proximal descending aorta, the so-called Diverticulum of Kommerell (which was named for the German radiologist Burkhard Friedrich Kommerell (1901-1990), who discovered it in 1936). (wikipedia.org)
  • Aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA), the most common aortic arch abnormality, occurs in approximately 0.5 to 1.8% of the general population, with prevalence of up to 25% in those with esophageal atresia. (thieme-connect.de)

  • 3] [6] Clinical presentation [ edit ] Symptoms include hemoptysis, and/or massive hemorrhage which result from the formation of a fistula between the trachea and the brachiocephalic artery. (symptoma.com)
  • 6 patients (37.5%) were diagnosed with double aortic arch, 7 patients (43.7%) had left arcus aorta associated with right aberrant subclavian artery and 3 patients (18.7%) had right arcus aorta and left ligamentum arteriosum. (ejcvsmed.org)
  • Coarctation of the aorta (Chap. 264) typically occurs near the insertion of the ligamentum arteriosum, adjacent to the left subclavian artery. (mhmedical.com)
  • The most common vascular rings are double aortic arch, right aortic arch with left ligamentum, pulmonary artery sling, and aberrant right subclavian artery. (sts.org)
  • The differential diagnosis included a vascular ring, aortic arch anomaly, cardiac tumor, posterior mediastinal mass, acquired esophageal atresia, congenital esophageal stenosis, and pulmonary artery sling (Reynolds et al . (jmedicalcasereports.org)

  • Background In patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial perfusion is assessed under rest and pharmacological stress to identify ischemia. (unav.edu)
  • Pseudoaneurysms of the iliac arteries are extremely rare and can complicate trauma, surgical or interventional procedures. (bvsalud.org)
  • The current strategies for the management of Kommerell diverticulum and circumflex aorta are described and contemporary surgical approaches such as video assisted thoracoscopic surgery are revisited. (sts.org)
  • An aberrant right subclavian artery may compress the recurrent laryngeal nerve causing a palsy of that nerve, which is termed Ortner's syndrome. (wikipedia.org)
  • In the normal embryological development of the aortic arches, the right dorsal aorta regresses caudal to the origin of the 7th intersegmental artery which gives rise to the right subclavian artery. (wikipedia.org)
