Aberrant Right Subclavian Artery Hematoma Following Radial Catheterization

Right subclavian steal associated with aberrant right subclavian artery.

The subclavian steal syndrome is a well-recognized clinical and radiographic entity that involves the left subclavian artery far more commonly than the right. Atherosclerotic stenoses are the most common underlying cause [1-3]. Right subclavian stenosis with associated steal is markedly less common. Although an aberrant right subclavian artery is one of the most common anomalies of the great ve...

Aberrant right subclavian artery and right-sided ductus arteriosus.

DESCRIPTION A premature newborn weighing 1.9 kg, presenting with cyanosis, feeding and respiratory difficulties was admitted to our centre for further evaluation. An initial echocardiogram suggested a pulmonary atresia with a malalignment infundibular ventricle septum defect with atypical right-sided ductus arteriosus (2.4 mm) arising from the aberrant right subclavian artery (4 mm), which was ...

Aberrant Radial Artery Causing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

  Anatomical vascular variations are rare causes of carpal tunnel syndrome. An aberrant medial artery is the most common vascular variation, while an aberrant radial artery causing carpal tunnel syndrome is even more rare, with an incidence ranging less than 3%. This article reports a patient with compression of the median nerve at the carpal tunnel by an aberrant superficial branch of the radi...

Aberrant left subclavian artery.

This paper describes a rare case in which the left subclavian artery originates from a common stem arising from the aortic arch and splits into a brachiocephalic trunk and a left subclavian artery. The course of other large vessels of the aortic arch in this case are typical.
