Hybrid treatment of dysphagia lusoria: right carotid to subclavian bypass and endovascular insertion of an Amplatzer II Vascular Plug.

Compression of the esophagus by a retroesophageal aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) is a rare cause of dysphagia. We present the case of a 47-year-old female with symptoms of progressive dysphagia diagnosed with dysphagia lusoria using barium swallow and contrast computed tomography and successfully treated with a hybrid procedure: right carotid to subclavian bypass and endovascular inser...

Endovascular treatment of an aberrant right subclavian artery aneurysm with use of the Zenith iliac plug.

Aberrant right subclavian artery aneurysms are rare but demonstrate a propensity toward rupture; thus, early elective repair is mandated. Novel endovascular modalities are available to offer less-invasive treatment for a patient population with increasing comorbidities. We report a case of a 65-year-old woman with an aberrant right subclavian artery aneurysm causing dysphagia lusoria. The aneur...

Dyspnea in Patient with Arteria Lusoria: A Case Report

In symptomatic cases, patients report dysphagia and only in few cases dyspnea, due to external compression of the trachea and esophagus. Symptoms occur in advanced age and diagnosis is made with chest HRCT, when other causes of dysphagia have been excluded.    Case Report: An 83-year-old woman presented with dyspnea and m...

Dysphagia 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...

Dysphagia due to an aberrant left subclavian artery in a right-sided aortic arch.

In 1794, Bayford described the post-mortem findings of a woman with lifelong dysphagia who eventually died of starvation, caused by oesophageal obstruction.' At post-mortem a right subclavian artery was identified passing aberrantly from a left-sided aortic arch behind the oesophagus, causing the woman's dysphagia. Dr Bayford referred to this extraordinary disposition ofthe right subclavian art...
