Surgical repair for aortic dissection accompanying a right-sided aortic arch
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aortic anomaly in which a right-sided aortic arch associated with Kommerell's diverticulum and aberrant left subclavian artery is rare. The present report describes a patient with type-B aortic dissection accompanying aortic anomalies consisting of right-sided aortic arch and the left common carotid and left subclavian artery arising from Kommerell's diverticulum. As dissecting aortic aneurysm diameter increased rapidly, Single-stage surgical repair of extensive thoracic aorta was performed through median sternotomy and right posterolateral fifth intercostal thoracotomy, yielding favorable results. Our surgical procedures are discussed.

Endovascular repair of a type B aortic dissection with a right-sided aortic arch: case report
Right-sided aortic arch is a rare anomaly, and aortic dissection involving a right-sided aortic arch is extremely rare. We report the case of a 65-year-old man with a right-sided aortic arch and a right descending aortic dissection and a stent-graft was accurately deployed without perioperative complications. There were no any complaints and complications after 18 months follow-up. The CTA demo...

Aortic dissection involving a right-sided aortic arch (RAA) is extremely rare with an incidence in adults of 0.04% to 0.1%. Thoracic aortic dissection associated with RAA is even a more uncommon and life-threatening condition. For complicated aortic dissection, conventional open surgical repair is considered a standard therapy. However, in such cases, endovascular repair has emerged as the proc...

Endovascular stent-graft repair is emerging as the treatment of choice for complicated type B aortic dissection. In this report we describe a patient who presented with type B aortic dissection involving a right-sided aortic arch (RAA), a rare congenital vascular anomaly. The initial aggressive medical treatment proved unsuccessful due to false aneurysm expansion. Given the greater complexity o...
