Translocation of an Aberrant Right Subclavian Artery With Resolution of Dysphagia Lusoria

Jess L Thompson et al. Ann Thorac Surg. 2016 Jul.

Abstract

The presence of a left aortic arch with an aberrant right subclavian artery is a well-described anatomic variant that rarely causes symptoms. When symptoms of dysphagia lusoria do occur, however, operative intervention may be necessary. The purpose of this report is to describe our preferred surgical approach to treat dysphagia lusoria secondary to an aberrant right subclavian artery.
