  • Title: Anomalous right subclavian artery arising proximal to a postductal thoracic aortic coarctation.
    Author: Reid DA, Foster ED, Stubberfield J, Alley RD.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 1981 Jul; 32(1):85-7. PubMed ID: 7247565.
    Abstract:
    Approximately 1% of patients with postductal thoracic aortic coarctation have an associated anomalous right subclavian artery. Previous reports indicated that the aberrant right subclavian vessel arose distal to the coarctation site. The case of a patient is presented in whom the anomalous right subclavian artery originated proximal to the postductal coarctation. We believe this to be among the first reports of this entity. The embryological development pathway and clinical implications of this congenital defect complex are discussed.
