Abstract
Aberrant right subclavian arteries (ARSA), also known as arteria lusoria, are among the commonest aortic arch anomalies, by passing behind the esophagus, it can cause a condition known as lusoric dysphagia, responsible for symptoms of discomfort. This artery is often associated with other anomalies, such as the non-recurrent laryngeal nerve, the bicarotid trunk, and with diseases such as aneurysms, congenital heart defects and even genetic syndromes. Here we report a case of an 82-year-old women patient has been referred to our department for an angio scanner of the supra-aortic trunk for etiological assessment of chronic dysphagia. Which has revealed an aberrant right subclavian artery (Arteria lusoria) associated with a bicarotid trunk.
