Single Incision One Stage Surgical Management of Dysphasia Lusoria - A Case Report
Narender S. Jhajhria | Vishakha Silky | Vijay Grover | Palash Aiyer [2]
Abstract: Aberrant right subclavian artery, or arteria lusoria, is a rare congenital anomaly of the aortic arch and may present with dysphagia or regurgitation in infants. Surgical approach remains debatable. Surgical interventions include supraclavicular, thoracotomy approaches and hybrid endovascular approaches with significant limitations and varying degrees of success. This case report describes a median upper partial sternotomy approach whereby the arteria lusoria is transected and reimplanted via a single incision to the right subclavian artery with good excellent outcome and immediate resolution of symptoms.
Keywords: Aberrant right subclavian artery, Dysphasia lusoria, Single incision, median sternotomy approach
