Infant With Recurrent Vomiting and Poor Weight Gain Secondary to an Aberrant Subclavian Artery

Failure to thrive (FTT) is a term commonly used to characterize slower-than-expected weight gain. While inadequate caloric intake is the predominant cause, failure to thrive is a manifestation of undernutrition often resulting from the interplay of multiple etiologies.

description Failure to thrive (FTT) is a term commonly used to characterize slower-than-expected weight gain. While inadequate caloric intake is the predominant cause, failure to thrive is a manifestation of undernutrition often resulting from the interplay of multiple etiologies. This case highlights the diagnosis and management of an infant who presented with recurrent large-volume emesis and poor weight gain secondary to esophageal compression from an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA).
