The Left Subclavian Artery Branches off directly from the arch of the aorta (as it travels down to supply oxygenated blood to the upper body) Passes between the anterior and middle scalene muscles ...

The first evaluation for subclavian artery occlusive disease should always be a simple measurement of bilateral brachial artery blood pressures. A significant difference between the two ...

Occasionally, division of the clavicular head of the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle is necessary to provide sufficient exposure of the common carotid artery. The anterior scalene muscle is divided ...

is a condition that arises when there is a significant blockage or stenosis in the subclavian artery, which can lead to reversed blood flow in the vertebral artery. This reversal occurs as the ...

Postero-anterior chest roentgenograms in 17 of 20 patients with coarctation of the aorta showed widening of the left upper mediastinal shadow attributed to dilatation of the left subclavian artery; ...

An enhanced CT showed the left subclavian artery was occluded from the proximal to the origin of left vertebral artery (figure 1). Coronary arteriography showed 50% stenosis in both the left diagonal ...

Highlighting the evolution of repair of aberrant subclavian artery and symptomatic Kommerell diverticulum ... projections to adequately visualize the origin of cerebrovascular branches to facilitate ...

Background The aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) is the most common branching abnormality of the aortic arch, with an estimated prevalence of 0.5–2% of the population. This anomaly is defined ...

CT angiography of the head and neck demonstrated occlusion of the left subclavian artery but excluded significant stenosis or occlusion of the carotid and vertebral arteries and their branches. Only ...

The Left Subclavian Artery Branches off directly from the arch of the aorta (as it travels down to supply oxygenated blood to the upper body). Passes between the anterior and middle scalene ...

The treatment of subclavian artery occlusive disease has evolved from surgery to percutaneous-based treatment strategies. Technical considerations for the management of stenosis and occlusions of ...
