PY - 2008 DA - 2008/07/09 TI - Aberrant right subclavian artery and calcified aneurysm of kommerell's diverticulum: an alternative approach JO - Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery SP - 43 VL - 3 IS - 1 AB - We report a 72 year-old man with dysphagia and dizziness. Aortography and Computed tomographic scans revealed the aberrant right subclavian artery arising from a calcified aneurysm of the Kommerell's diverticulum and bilateral carotid artery disease with atherosclerotic narrowing. Surgical relief was accomplished by excluding the aneurysm from circulation through the aortic arch and a 10 mm graft was interposed between the aberrant artery and the ascending aorta.
