Kommerell diverticulums are an uncommon congenital vascular disease involving an aberrant origin of the right or left subclavian artery and a dilation of its root. Here, we present the case of a 44-year-old woman with a relapse of a surgically repaired aberrant subclavian artery with a Kommerell diverticulum.
Ventricular septal rupture is an uncommon but serious complication of acute myocardial infarction that requires prompt and appropriate management. In this case, we present a typical example of a patient diagnosed with a ventricular septal rupture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
