“…They were able to collect 12 similar cases from the literature, all with the same result. Lewis and Lambert Rogers (1953) recently recorded a similar case i n which they fortunately realized the true state of affairs. In another type the pressure on the trachea and oesophagus may be caused by a vascular ring consisting of a double aorta, o r be due to the presence of an abnormal right subclavian artery passing behind the cesophagus.…”

relative distribution of the intrarenal blood-flow between the cortex and the medulla. These findings agree with the normal renal clearances which have been reported in dogs with experimental hypertension by several authors (Smith, 195 I). SUMMARYDogs, after a right nephrectomy, were made hypertensive by the application of a Goldblatt clamp either to the left renal artery itself or to one of its two primary branches, the left kidney being exteriorized.Rapid serial angiograms of the renal circulation were made of 12 dogs, from 8 to 42 days after application of the clamp. When the constriction had been applied to one branch only of the renal artery the circulation through the ' clamped ' part of the kidney was greatly diminished. The circulation through the remaining ' unclamped ' part of the kidney, and through the whole of the kidney i n dogs with a clamp on the main renal artery, showed no obvious abnormality, except in a few animals which developed u r z m i a ; in these the renal circulation as a whole was impaired.The pressures in the renal artery on either side of the clamp were measured and the form of the pulse wave recorded.T h e experiments reported i n this paper were carried out at the Buckston Browne Research Farm, Downe, Kent, and at the Nuffield Institute for Medical Research, Oxford. Our thanks are due to Dr. H. Goldblatt for sending us one of his clamps to serve as a model for those used, which were made for us b y Mr. A. Lord,

In an attempt to describe the morphofunctional consequences of uni- and bilateral aplasia of the common carotid artery (CCA), which is usually a vascular source of the external carotid (ECA) and internal carotid (ICA) arteries, we investigated online databases of anatomical and clinical papers published from the 18th century to the present day. We found 87 recorded cases of uni- and bilateral CCA aplasia in subjects from the first hours to the eighth decade of life, which had been discovered in 14 (known) countries. Four crucial parameters were described: the embryology of the carotid arteries, morphophysiology of the carotid arteries, CCA aplasia, and unilateral versus bilateral CCA aplasia, including history, general data, diagnosing, vascular sources, caliber, course of the separated ECA and ICA, associated vascular variants, and pathological disorders. To complete the knowledge of the morphofunctional consequences of the absence of some artery of the carotid system, and risking the possibility of repeating some words, as “carotid artery”, or “carotid aplasia” and the headings from our previous article about bilateral ICA absence, this review is the first in the literature that recorded all cases of the CCA aplasia published and/or cited for the past 233 years. Main characteristic of the CCA absence is its association with 21 different diseases, among which the aneurysms were in 13.69% of cases, and 17.80% of cases were without pathology.

“…One theory (Lewis and Rogers, 1953) holds that it is caused by retention of the fourth branchial arch at the cervical level. According to another theory (Beavan and Fatti, 1947;Harley, 1959;Lewis and Rogers, 1953;Mahoney and Manning, 1964) it derives directly from the third or second branchial arch. The controversy has been extensively explored by Shuford et al (1972), who have shown that both hypotheses are equally valid.…”

A case of cervical aortic arch is reported. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first to be associated with a serious intracardiac anomaly. In (Beavan and Fatti, 1947;Bender, Menges, and Shulze, 1964;Chang et al., 1971;Defrenne and Verney, 1968;De Jong and Klinkhamer, 1969;DuBrow et al., 1974;Gravier, Vialtel, and Pinet, 1959;Harley, 1959;Hastreiter, D'Cruz, and Cantez 1966;Mahoney and Manning, 1964;Massumi, Wiener, and Charif, 1963; Muflins, Gillete, and McNamara, 1973;Pitzus and Camoglio, 1974;Richie et al., 1972;Sheperd, Kerth, and Rosenthal, 1969;Shuford et al., 1972). Right-sided in the majority of instances, it has been found only as an isolated entity. The purpose of this article is to describe a case associated with pseudotruncus and which constitutes a new type of asymptomatic double aortic arch.Case report A 33-month-old undernourished male child,cyanotic since the age of 1 month, with a history of several upper respiratory infections was admitt3d for evaluation. Pertinent physical findings were a systolic thrill over the left supraclavicular region and a superficial venous network over face, neck, and upper trunk. Peripheral pulses were normal. Laboratory studies were within normal limits except for haematocrit (63%) and haemoglobin (17*3 g/100 ml). Electrocardiogram showed obvious right axis deviation, right atrial overload, pronounced right ventricular hypertrophy, and systolic overload. Phonocardiogram showed a modest systolic murmur at the second and third interspaces and an increased second heart sound. On chest x-ray film the heart was slightly enlarged; the apex was rounded and tilted upward. The pulmonary artery segment was concave and the hilar and pulmonary vascular markings were decreased. In the left anterior oblique projection the aortic knob was unusually high and prominent. Lungs were clear. At cardiac catheterization very low oxygen saturation values were found both in the venous (34-8% in right atrium) and arterial systems (38&9% in ascending aorta). The pulmonary artery could not be entered. The right ventricular pressure was 85/3-5 mmHg (11'3/04-O07 kPa). CineangiocardiogramThe right infundibulum wrs atretic. A dilated ascending aorta overrode a large ventricular septal defect. The aortic arch was right-sided. The first aortic branch crossed the midline, ascended to the left side of the neck, then turned abruptly downward and rejoined the aorta at the level of the rightsided arch. The second and third branches were, respectively, the right subclavian and right common carotid arteries. The left brachiocephalic arteries could not be properly assessed, but the left common carotid artery seemed to arise from the descending portion of the left cervical arch. A hypoplastic main pulmonary artery was supplied by a small persistent ductus arteriosus which originated from the
