Symptoms, when present, occur at the two extremes of life. Owing to the more flexible and compressible nature of the trachea, children usually present with respiratory symptoms, in contrast to adults, who more often present with dysphagia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Only one patient presented with an aneurysmal rupture. In infants, respiratory symptoms are the predominant mode of presentation. [oadoi.org]

• Sputum

  A 46 year old female, a homemaker came to our hospital with C/O  Cough with expectoration for 1 week duration  White, mucoid sputum  H/O difficulty in swallowing for the past 6 months Intermittent in nature, more to solids than liquids 3.  No H/O [slideshare.net]

• Hand Deformity

  This patient's congenital hand deformities illustrate the embryological origin of this vascular anomaly, which is the most common congenital aortic root abnormality and has a prevalence ranging from 0.5% to 1.8% in the general population. 1 Barium esophagram [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Drop Attacks

  A 45-year-old laborer presented with a several year history of episodic bilateral blindness and a more recent onset of "drop attacks." Notably this patient had presented at the age of 18 months with difficulty breathing and eating since birth. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Limb Weakness

  It is clear that re-establishment of retrograde flow in the right subclavian artery is necessary to prevent limb weakness and ischemia and resultant subclavian steal syndrome. [bariatrictimes.com]

Workup revealed a right-sided aortic arch with a left ligamentum arteriosum. When he was first seen in our clinic, history and physical examination revealed claudication and diminished pulses in the left upper extremity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We present a case of a young patient with progressive dysphagia who underwent extensive workup and repetitive endoscopic procedures until diagnosed. [eventscribe.com]

Extensive cardiac workup was negative for an acute coronary syndrome and she was discharged home with instructions to follow up at the bariatric clinic. [bariatrictimes.com]

She was found to have a negative cardiac workup for ischemia with a subsequent computed tomography angiogram (CTA) of the chest showing an abnormal right subclavian artery. [cureus.com]

• Gastric Fistula

  The gastric pouch was normal in size without evidence of bile reflux or gastro-gastric fistula. The gastro-jejunal anastomosis was patent without evidence of stricture or marginal ulceration ( Figure 1 ). [bariatrictimes.com]

Treatment is indicated to relieve dysphagia lusoria, as well as in cases where the ARSA is aneurismal [9]. [heraldopenaccess.us]

(Etiology) The exact cause of Aberrant Subclavian Artery is not known. It is believed to be an anomaly of the aortic arch during embryonic development. During embryonic development, the aortic arch gets remodeled. [dovemed.com]

All these factors limit our ability to correctly assess the true epidemiology of this iatrogenic disorder. [bjmp.org]

Epidemiological studies suggest that as many as 22% of the population over the age of 50 years are affected by dysphagia.[1] Dysphagia that is caused by external compression of an aberrant vessel is known as dysphagia lusoria. [hamdanjournal.org]

The presentation, evaluation, pathophysiology, and treatment of this condition are discussed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

To prevent possible ischemic complications, most surgeons favor revascularization of the distal subclavian artery. Thoracotomy has been the traditional approach for division or reimplantation of the aberrant right subclavian artery. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

After the vascular ring is released, the diverticulum is not observed to impinge on the esophagus; however, as a preventive measure, the surgeon sutures it to the anterior spinous ligament. [mdedge.com]
