Abstract
|
|
Introduction:
Subclavian steal syndrome refers to the reversal of vertebral blood flow in the setting of proximal subclavian or innominate artery severe stenosis or occlusion resulting in the symptoms of vertebrobasilar insufficiency related to exercise of the upper extremities. It is more common on the left side.
Case Report: We reported a case of subclavian steal syndrome on the right side in a patient with aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSCA), hypoplastic left vertebral artery and common carotid trunk (CCT) branching in to the left and right common carotid arteries. Conclusion: Till now, combination of ARSCA, CCT and left vertebral artery hypoplasia in the same person has not been reported and this combination causes ischemia in large area of brain if the patient develops hemodynamically significant stenosis or occlusion in both CCT and ARSCA proximal to the origin of right vertebral artery. | |
