Abstract

Two cases of isolation of the left subclavian artery from the aortic arch are reported for the rarity of this lesion. One patient was diagnosed clinically, the other after angiography. The isolated left subclavian artery was reimplanted in one patient. This rare anomaly has clinical and surgical relevance and should be diagnosed by diligent clinical and angiographic evaluation.
