Repair of Aberrant Right Subclavian Artery Causing Dysphagia Lusoria via Partial Median Sternotomy

While unusual, aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSCA) can occasionally be a source of significant dysphagia in children. We present a case of a 13-year-old female who reported a three-year history of dysphagia to solid foods and was found to have ARSCA on a barium swallow study and computed tomogr...

Sumario:While unusual, aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSCA) can occasionally be a source of significant dysphagia in children. We present a case of a 13-year-old female who reported a three-year history of dysphagia to solid foods and was found to have ARSCA on a barium swallow study and computed tomography scan of the chest. We reimplanted the ARSCA into the right carotid artery in end-to-side fashion using a partial median sternotomy approach. At six months follow-up, her symptoms had completely resolved, and her postoperative echocardiogram showed an unobstructed reimplanted ARSCA.
