Endovascular Repair for Kommerell’s Diverticulum and Right-Sided Aortic Arch
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 74-year-old man with hoarseness was diagnosed with a right-sided aortic arch and Kommerell's diverticulum by computed tomography (CT). The diverticulum had a maximum diameter of 33 mm, and surgical intervention was chosen because of the possibility of rupture. A right common carotid to right subclavian artery bypass was constructed, stent-graft was placed after the branching of the right common carotid artery, and coil embolization of the diverticulum was performed via left brachial artery. No leaks were found on postoperative CT. Symptoms disappeared and the diverticulum became smaller soon after surgery. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for Kommerell's diverticulum was safe and effective.

Right-sided aortic arches are rare, affecting approximately 0.1% of the population. They are a result of abnormal development of the primitive aortic arches and may present later in life with later life with aneurysmal expansion of the aberrant left subclavian artery 'Kommerell's diverticulum'. These can be challenging to treat effectively. We report a rare case presenting with mild dysphagia a...

We report a rare case of type A dissection involving a right-sided aortic arch with an aberrant left subclavian artery originating from Kommerell's diverticulum in a 76-year-old woman. Endovascular treatment for Kommerell's diverticulum including intimal tear of the dissection was performed. At the 5-year follow-up, the patient was doing well, with no endoleak or dilatation of the Kommerell's d...

A case of successful endovascular repair of right aortic arch with the aberrant left subclavian artery (ALSA) arising from Kommerell’s diverticulum (KD). Our strategy consisted of coil embolization for the orifice of the ALSA, put the bypass between left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery and exclusion of KD by stent graft insertion. Enhanced computed tomography scan 36 months aft...

A previously healthy 52-year-old man had a chest radiograph for medical check-up and found to have a right-sided aortic arch. Computed tomography of the thorax revealed a right-sided aortic arch with aberrant left subclavian artery originated from Kommerell's diverticulum. Barium swallow examination showed compression of the posterior wall of the esophagus. He was asymptomatic and no surgical i...
متن کاملA review of the surgical management of right-sided aortic arch aneurysms.
Aneurysms and dissections of the right-sided aortic arch are rare and published data are limited to a few case reports and small series. The optimal treatment strategy of this entity and the challenges associated with their management are not yet fully investigated and conclusive. We performed a systematic review of the literature to identify all patients who underwent surgical or endovascular ...
