Expanding aneurysm of aberrant right subclavian artery case report and imaging evaluation

Acute fatal haemorrhage during percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy

“…21 To reach the right upper limb, it courses behind the oesophagus in the majority of cases (80%), but in 15% of cases it passes between the oesophagus and trachea, and in the remaining 5%, it passes anterior to the trachea. 22 Presence of an ARSA is associated with congenital heart disease in 10±15% of cases, 23 and can give rise to dysphagia as a result of oesophageal compression. The latter was termed dysphagia lusoria or dif®culty with swallowing because of a`quirk of nature' by Bayford in 1735.…”

Natural history of aneurysmal aortic arch branch vessels in a single tertiary referral center

“…Very few studies have systematically analyzed aneurysmal AABV growth over time, most likely because of their high rate of early operative intervention. Pairolero et al, 20 Regina et al, 27 Halldorsson et al, 13 Coselli and Crawford, 28 Hogg et al, 29 and Takagi et al 30 each reported monitoring for aneurysmal AABV growth in either one or a few patients, most of whom underwent operative intervention.…”

Intrathoracic Aneurysm of the Right Subclavian Artery Presenting with Hoarseness: A Case Report

“…It has been reported that an aneurysm of the aberrant right subclavian artery grew at the rate of 0.42 cm/yr measured by CXR (8). In another report, growth rate was reported at 1.31 cm/yr in a true left subclavian artery aneurysm measured by CT scan (9).…”
