Two cases of aberrant subclavian arteries were detected incidentally during computed tomography scan of the thorax for other medical conditions. The patients did not have weight loss or dysphagia lusoria. The origin and course of theaberrant subclavian arteries are related to the anomaly of the aortic arch. The variations of aberrant right subclavian artery with left aortic arch and aberrant left subclavian artery with right aortic arch on computed tomography are discussed.Journal of Kathmandu Medical CollegeVol. 3, No. 4, Oct.-Dec., 2014Page: 162-164

Tetralogy of Fallot without pulmonary valve syndrome is almost always associated with an absent ductus arteriosus. Patients with right aortic arch and retroesophageal left subclavian artery have a vascular ring if the left ductus arteriosus or its remnant and the Kommerell diverticulum are present. We report the cases of 2 infants in whom the role of an absent ductus arteriosus or its remnant is noteworthy. Both patients had a combination of tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve syndrome and right aortic arch with retroesophageal left subclavian artery without a vascular ring. The absence of the ductus arteriosus has a role in the pathogenesis of tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve syndrome. The absence of a ductus arteriosus in the right aortic arch with retroesophageal left subclavian artery precludes a vascular ring.

Background: A 57-year-old woman was diagnosed with Kommerell’s diverticulum in the setting of a right aortic arch on computed tomography. Case report: Although asymptomatic, the maximum diameter of the aneurysm was 55 mm; thus, she underwent surgery to prevent rupture of the aneurysm. A bypass was constructed from the left common carotid artery to the left subclavian artery. A stent-graft was deployed from the distal right subclavian artery, and coil embolization of the diverticulum was performed via the left subclavian artery. She was discharged after 12 days of surgery. The postoperative four-month follow up showed a smaller aneurysm. Conclusion: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair is feasible and effective for Kommerell’s diverticulum.
