Aortic arch anomalies.
Magnetic resonance imaging has become the gold standard for imaging the aortic arch with the ability to demonstrate not only the arterial branching pattern, but also the relationship of aorta and its branches to the trachea and bronchi. Examples of four major aortic arch types--left aortic arch, right aortic arch, double aortic arch and persistent fifth aortic--with most of their variations are...
متن کاملChronic occlusion of aortic arch branches.
Partial or complete occlusion of aortic arch branches has commonly been considered a single entity,9 though it is readily subdivided into a number of distinct types. The classical variety, an idiopathic arteritis (Takayasu’s disease or “pulseless disease”) which occurs in young women is quite rare.1 Occlusions resulting from arteriosclerosis obliterans,2 thoracic outlet syndrome,’4 embolus, ane...
متن کاملAortic Arch Anomalies: Simplified Classification
Between the years 1965 and 1970, ten patients were operated on for congenital anomalies of the aortic arch which caused symptoms of tracheoesophageal compression. The classic Edwards' diagram was modified for a more simple mterpretation of these anomalies. Accordingly, all our patients were found to belong to four distinct variations: 1) double aortic arch, which was divided in twosubgroups, a)...
متن کاملThrombotic obliteration of the branches of the aortic arch.
PULSELESS disease, or Takayashu's disease, is an unusual syndrome characterized by the obliteration of the major branches of the arch of the aorta. The name, pulseless disease, does not appear to be adequate, for it fails to indicate the peculiar localization of the disease and the clinical variants with diminished, but present pulses. The name Takayashu's disease is subject to the criticism us...
متن کاملCongenital Anomalies of the Aortic Arch: Evaluation with the Use of Multidetector Computed Tomography
Congenital anomalies of the aortic arch have clinical importance, as the anomalies may be associated with vascular rings or other congenital cardiovascular diseases. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography enables one to display the detailed anatomy of vascular structures and the spatial relationships with adjacent organs; this ability is the greatest advantage of the use of MDCT a...
