Aneurysm of aberrant right subclavian artery (arteria lusoria) presenting as cardiac dyspnoea.
A 75-year-old Caucasian man presented with a 3-month history of progressive dyspnoea, unrelated to position, with an exercise tolerance of 100 m. He had experienced thrombolysis following an inferior myocardial infarction 8 years previously. Initial diagnosis was cardiac dyspnoea; transthoracic echocardiogram showed moderate left ventricular dysfunction without significant progression from prev...
متن کاملDilated aberrant right subclavian artery (arteria lusoria), as a rare cause of dysphagia in a patient with abdominal aortic aneurysm.
A rare case of a 70 years old man with dysphagia secondary to compression of the oesophagus by dilated aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA, Arteria lusoria) is presented. Contrast enhanced computed tomography of the mediastinum in our patient revealed this anomalous vessel arising from the aortic arch distal to the left subclavian artery which passed behind the esophagus as it traveled to th...
متن کاملThe aberrant right subclavian artery and dysphagia lusoria.
The aortic arch (AA) gives rise to the brachiocephalic trunk, the left subclavian artery and the left common carotid artery in 80% of individuals. In 1794, Bayford associated dysphagia in a female patient with the existence of an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) and defined it as dysphagia lusus naturae (capricious nature). It is the most common congenital anomaly of the AA. ARSA origina...
متن کاملAneurysm of the aberrant right subclavian artery – a case report
BACKGROUND The right subclavian artery, originating not from the brachiocephalic trunk but directly from the aortic arch, is a rare anatomical abnormality. 'Arteria lusoria' is the accepted name of the retroesophageal right subclavian artery. Such a vessel location, between the vertebral column and the esophagus, determines its course to the right. This defect may be asymptomatic, found during ...
متن کاملDysphagia Lusoria: A Case of an Aberrant Right Subclavian Artery and a Bicarotid Trunk
Dysphagia Lusoria is dysphagia secondary to an aberrant right subclavian artery that has a retroesophageal course. Adachi and Williams categorized aortic arch anomalies, showing that the right subclavian artery arising in this fashion (as the final branch of the descending aortic arch) is one of the more common. However, this very rarely coexists with a bicarotid trunk. We present such a case a...
