Fig. 1. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed using a 1.5 T MRI scanner (Toshiba Medical Systems; Crawley, UK) with cardiac coil and ECG-gating. Noncontrast-enhanced MRA involved a fast-advanced spin-echo (FASE) sequence. The coronal image illustrates aberrant left brachiocephalic vein (arrowheads), which passes posterior to the left subclavian and common carotid arteries to join the right b...
متن کاملAnterior Cervicothoracic Junction Approach
Surgical approaches to the cervicothoracic junction frequently involve complicated dissection because of the restricted accessibility during the procedure and the close proximity of the great vessels. Common indications for surgical intervention include infections, neoplasms, and fractures. Approaches described here are useful for pathologies of the difficult-to-access upper thoracic spine (T1–...
متن کاملAnterior Trans Cervicothoracic Approach for Complete Resection of Cervicothoracic Mediastinal Neurogenic Tumors
Introduction:Neurogenic mediastinal tumors comprise a wide range of benign and malignant diseases. A group of these tumors, located at thoracic apex, sometimes spread to cervical spaces causing numerous surgical difficulties. In thoracotomy approaches, due to proximity of the tumors to major blood vessels, complete removal of these tumors from cervical spaces is impossible or may cause intraope...

jugular vein and the subclavian vein. The left brachiocephalic vein (LBCV) usually passes superior and anterior to the aortic arch (1). In rare cases, this vein follows an anomalous course. This anomaly was first described by Kerschner in 1888 (2) and a double LBCV described by Takata in 1992 (3). The incidence of an aberrant left brachiocephalic vein (ALBCV) with congenital heart disease is 0....
متن کاملEpithelioid hemangioendothelioma encasing the left brachiocephalic vein
Epithelioid hemangioendotheliomas are rare vascular tumors, often arising from medium to large veins in the extremities. Symptoms of these tumors vary depending upon location. Rarely, tumors may arise in chest and involve large vessels in the mediastinum. We present a case of a 17-year-old male presenting with compressive symptoms of the left upper extremity who was found to have a large epithe...
