  • Title: Bypass for Innominate Artery Occlusive Disease.
    Author: Kühn AL, Puri AS, Rex DE.
    Journal: World Neurosurg; 2018 Aug; 116():225. PubMed ID: 29842970.
    Abstract:
    The innominate artery, also known as the brachiocephalic artery, is the first vessel off the aortic arch and provides blood to the right arm, neck, and head. Occlusion of the innominate artery can be treated with endarterectomy, angioplasty, stenting, and bypass grafting. Bypass grafting describes a surgical procedure during which a bypass from the ascending aorta to the innominate artery is created. Our case depicts a patient post innominate artery bypass graft with a less commonly encountered postsurgical anatomy.
