Showing variation in branching pattern of arch of aorta with brachiocephalic trunk (BT) continues as right common carotid artery (RCCA) without giving right subclavian artey (RSA) (A). RSA originates from descending aorta and crosses midline to supply right arm (B)

Variations of branches of aortic arch are significant for both diagnostic and surgical procedures. The most common branching pattern of aortic arch is brachiocephalic trunk, left common carotid artery, left subclavian artery. Two heart specimens are reported here with variations of the branching pattern of aortic arches. In one specimen, brachiocep...

The right vertebral artery (VA) rarely arises from the right common carotid artery (CCA); however, the majority of anomalous right VAs are seen in combination with an aberrant right subclavian artery (SA). Independent (or isolated) right VA of the right CCA origin is extremely rare, with only a few cases reported previously. We herein report an add...

BACKGROUND: At birth, the ductus arteriosus (DA) merges with the aortic arch in the slightly caudal side of the origin of the left subclavian artery (SCA). Since the SCAs (7th segmental arteries) were fixed on the level of the 7th cervical-first thoracic vertebral bodies, the confluence of DA should migrate caudally. We aimed to describe timing and...

The Arteria lusoria or aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) constitutes one of the rarest malformations of the aortic arch, it can be associated with other congenital anomalies of the heart and large vessels, in particular the bi-carotid trunk or common origin of the carotid arteries (COCA) which is the presence of a single branch from the aorta...

Numerical simulations of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) may be implemented in the preoperative workflow if credible and reliable. We present the application of a TEVAR simulation methodology to an 82-year-old woman with a penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer in the left hemiarch, that underwent a left common carotid artery to left subclav...

Galea spixii is a typical rodent of the caatinga belonging to the Caviidae family. Considering the lack of data on the aortic arch of the galea, this study aimed to describe the collateral branches of the aortic arch in this specie and to contributes to knowledge of its biology. Twenty males from previous studies were used which had been stored in...
