  • Title: Right cervical aortic arch with aberrant left subclavian artery.
    Author: Tjang YS, Aramendi JI, Crespo A, Hamzeh G, Voces R, Rodríguez MA.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2008 Aug; 16(4):e37-9. PubMed ID: 18670014.
    Abstract:
    The combination of right cervical aortic arch, aberrant retroesophageal left subclavian artery originating from a Kommerell's diverticulum, and a ligamentum arteriosum, constitutes a rare form of vascular ring. Two patients aged 21 days and 54 years, who were diagnosed by multislice 3-dimensional computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, underwent surgical division of a vascular ring. The adult required resection of a Kommerell's aneurysm and subclavian artery reimplantation.
