  • Title: Association of aortic arch anomalies and subclavian artery supply disruption with neurofibromatosis.
    Author: Nakagawa M, Osawa Y, Hanato T, Fujino H, Watanabe N, Takeuchi Y.
    Journal: Int J Cardiol; 2005 Sep 15; 104(1):32-4. PubMed ID: 16137506.
    Abstract:
    We report an 8-year-old Japanese girl with von Recklinghausen disease, who presented with aortic arch anomalies and left hemilateral oculo-otolaryngeal abnormalities including strabismus, blepharoptosis, a dysplastic external ear and hearing loss. The aortic arch anomalies including subclavian artery obstruction that appeared to be a consequence of the neurofibromatosis, and the hemilateral oculo-otolaryngeal abnormalities could be explained by disruption of the subclavian artery supply during embryogenesis.
