Sumario:Abnormal proximal aortic origin of the brachiocephalic artery is a very rare condition. It can occur in isolation or associated with complex congenital heart disease affecting the right ventricular outflow tract. Its recognition carries relevant surgical implications for the safe conduct of cardiopulmonary bypass and for any surgical procedures that directly involve the proximal ascending aorta and its branches.
