Vertebral artery origin anomalies are typically incidental findings during angiography. We present an extremely rare variant in which the right vertebral artery has a double origin from the right subclavian artery and right common carotid artery in association with an aberrant right subclavian artery, which has never been reported before.

In this case presentation we describe a patient with an anomalous origin of the right vertebral artery arising from the right common carotid artery in combination with an aberrant right subclavian artery and a left vertebral artery originating from the arch between the left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery. Hence there were five vessels originating from the aortic arch. The possible embryological mechanism as well as a postulation on the importance of the level of entrance of the vertebral artery in the cervical transverse foramen is discussed.

Abstract Our study was performed on 228 cases by dissection, by plastic injection followed by corrosion or dissection and by simple and CT angiography study. Each morphological aspect was assessed on a different numbers of cases, as long as the same case could not provide data on all studied elements. We assessed: the number of branches that originate from the aortic arch, the level of origin and the morphological type of the aortic arch. In terms of number of branches emerging from the aortic arch, most commonly are three branches, in 48.48% of cases, describing them 3 variations: separation of the three classical branches in 45,96% of cases, in 1.51% of cases the left common carotid artery emerged from the brachiocephalic trunk while the other two branches being represented by a vertebral artery and the left subclavian and in 1.01% by the right subclavian artery with retroesophageal traject, by a bicarotid arterial trunk and the left subclavian artery. In 28.70% of the cases were four branches, as follows: in 13.13% of cases the fourth branch was represented by the left vertebral artery, in 7.07% of cases there was the inferior thyroid artery, in 4.04% of cases the brachiocephalic arterial trunk was missing and the right subclavian artery originate from the aortic arch and presented a retroesophageal traject, in 3.03% of cases the fourth artery was the ascending cervical and in 1.51% of cases all four arteries had their origins in the aortic arch with no brachiocephalic trunk. In 22.73% of cases from the aortic arch originated only two branches: in 19.70% of cases the left common carotid originated in the brachiocephalic trunk, so the second branch was the left subclavian and in 3.03% of the cases there were two brachiocephalic trunks. Regarding the level of origin from the aortic arch, we found that only the brachiocephalic arterial trunk showed versions of origin: in 64 61% of the cases the brachiocephalic trunk had its origin in the horizontal segment of the aortic arch, in 21.54% of cases the origin was located at the limit between the ascending and horizontal segments and vin 12.31% of cases the origin was from the ascending segment of the aortic arch. In only 1.54% of the cases the left subclavian artery originated from the descending segment of the aortic arch

This report describes a unique case of triplication of the terminal left vertebral artery, forming the basilar artery in a 75-year-old male. CT angiography of cranio-cervical vessels also demonstrated the right vertebral artery originating from the right common carotid and an aberrant right subclavian artery. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of a variation of this nature. The embryology and the clinical importance are discussed.

In human beings the most common branching pattern of the aortic arch was its division into three great vessels ie the brachiocephalic trunk, left common carotid artery and the subclavian artery. The vertebral arteries arise from the superior aspect of the first part of the subclavian artery. In present case, a left vertebral artery arose from the aortic arch as fourth branch was found. The diameter of left vertebral artery at its origin was 6 mm as compared to the right vertebral artery, which has diameter of 3.5 mm at its origin. In this case left sixth dorsal intersegmental artery might have persisted as first part of vertebral artery hence left vertebral artery arising from arch of aorta. Knowledge of the variations in branching pattern of the aortic arch is important in the diagnosis of intracranial aneurysm after subarachnoid haemorrhage.J. Biomed. Sci. 2015, 2(3):21-23.
