[Aortic Arch:Embryology and Remodeling].

A right aortic arch and aberrant subclavian artery result from an interruption in the remodeling of the pharyngeal arch arteries. We occasionally encounter this anatomical variation during angiography. Patients with disorders such as Down syndrome and congenital heart disease show a high incidence of an aberrant right subclavian artery, and this anomaly can cause symptomatic esophageal or tracheal compression. The root of the aberrant artery may show dilatation(referred to as a Kommerell diverticulum), dissection, intramural hematoma, or rupture necessitating cardiac intervention using a surgical or endovascular approach. Neurointerventionalists should have working knowledge of the anatomy to rapidly understand the anatomy and ensure a safe procedure. A left transradial approach should be considered if prior knowledge of the aberrant subclavian anatomy is available.
