Symptomatic Aortic Arch Floating Thrombus In A Patient With "Bovine Arch".

Bovine arch is an aortic arch variant in which the left common carotid artery and the brachiocephalic trunk share the same origin. Several vascular pathologies, as aneurysm, dissection or strokes have an increased prevalence in patients with this anatomic variant. We describe the first reported case of a young patient with a symptomatic aortic arch floating thrombus in association with a bovine arch.
