Bifid direct aortic arch origin of left vertebral artery: a unique vascular variant
J Vasc Interv Radiol.
2007 Aug.
Abstract
The present report describes an unusual case of a duplicated origin of the left vertebral artery from the aorta discovered incidentally in a young patient. Computed tomographic angiography followed by conventional angiography demonstrated this anomaly. Angiographic findings and vertebral artery embryogenesis and anomalies are discussed.
