In two other patients with the echocardiographic diagnosis of aberrant right subclavian artery, the origin of the vessel was not mentioned in the operative note.
This finding was confirmed at surgery, with subsequent successful implantation of the aberrant right subclavian artery, thus preventing the sequels of congenital subclavian steal syndrome.
Two patients developed transient complete heart block following balloon dilation or angioplasty of the pulmonary valve or pulmonary artery via a left subclavian venous approach.
Classic neurological symptoms of congenital subclavian steal are rarely described in childhood.
Because adequate pulsation was palpable in the isolated subclavian artery, it was not anastomosed to the arch.
The origin of the right subclavian artery is dissected free as is the right pulmonary artery.
These continue to be potential problems after ligation of the origin of the subclavian artery from the pulmonary artery.
In this last form of aberrant left subclavian artery, there is often an association with intracardiac defects.
