Sagittal reformatted (a) and color-coded volume-rendered (b) computed tomography (CT) angiographic images showing an aorto-left atrial fistula (arrows) and an aneurysmatic aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) arising from the most distal branch of the aortic arch (stars). Axial CT angiographic image (c) shows aneurysmatic ARSA (arrowhead), left subclavian artery (thick arrow), and truncus brachiocephalicus (arrow). Axial CT angiographic image (d) shows aneurysmatic ARSA (arrowhead), left subclavian artery (thick arrow), left common carotid artery (long arrow), and right common carotid artery (short arrow). Coronal color-coded volume-rendered CT angiography (e) shows aneurysmatic ARSA (arrows).
