Occlusion of the right subclavian artery after insertion of a transesophageal echocardiography probe in an adult with a vascular ring -A case report-
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has become an important monitoring device for patients undergoing cardiac or noncardiac surgery. Complications associated with TEE are unusual, but the potential for TEE probe compression of the posterior vascular structures has been reported in pediatric patients. We present here a case of occlusion of the right subclavian artery in an adult patient with a vascular ring after insertion of a TEE probe.

No history of the...
متن کاملA Retroesophageal Right Subclavian Artery as the Last Branch of the Aortic Arch- In Vivo Case Report
Three major arteries normally originate from the aortic arch. Variations of the aortic arch branches are observed in some cases. Rare variation of the aortic arch branches is originated from the retroesophageal right subclavian (RRS) artery as the last branch of the aortic arch.
