AI Article Synopsis

  • The left subclavian artery aneurysm combined with an aneurysm of the aberrant right subclavian artery is quite uncommon, occurring in about 0.13% to 1% of cases.
  • A case study highlights the successful surgical treatment of both aneurysms in a 34-year-old male patient.
  • This report emphasizes the feasibility of surgical intervention for these rare vascular conditions.

Article Abstract

Left subclavian artery aneurysm with an aneurysm of the aberrant right subclavian artery is a rare condition with a reported incidence of 0.13% to 1%. We report the successful surgical correction of both conditions in a 34-year-old man.

Objectives: Mal-deployment of the thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) stent graft during a frozen elephant trunk (FET) procedure for an acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) leads to devastating complications. We report a hemiarch replacement with TEVAR stent graft covering the aortic arch vessels salvaged through an endovascular approach.

Methods: A 69-year-old man with ATAAD in 2018, status post-hemiarch repair with TEVAR, presented in 2023 with progressive dizziness/syncope and lower extremity hypertension with inability to tolerate anti-hypertensives.

Managing an adult patient with aortic coarctation and associated anomalies presents a significant surgical challenge. We present a case of an adult male with aortic coarctation, pre-coarctation distal arch 7-cm aneurysm involving the origin of the left subclavian artery, and aberrant (lusoria) right subclavian artery. He was managed with one surgical approach, consisting of right carotid-subclavian bypass, exclusion of the right subclavian artery, proximal descending aortic replacement and reinsertion of left subclavian artery, using partial cardiopulmonary bypass.

Background: Free functional muscle transfer (FFMT) for brachial plexus injury (BPI) requires adequate donor arterial flow for successful anastomosis. However, concomitant BPI and subclavian artery injury are not uncommon. Arteriovenous (AV) loop graft is one of the methods used to extend vessels to areas with vascular depletion.

Angioplasty and stenting of brachiocephalic artery stenosis can be complicated by ischemic stroke, local hematoma, thromboses, or dissection of access vessels. However, hemodynamic instability has not been reported as a complication of this treatment. We report the case of an 83-year-old man who developed hypotension and bradycardia after brachiocephalic artery stenting.
