Aberrant Right Subclavian Artery With a Bicarotid Trunk: A Rare Cause of Stridor in Infants
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The aberrant right subclavian artery represents a rare vascular anomaly that must be considered in the differential diagnosis of infants experiencing respiratory distress and feeding difficulties. Advanced imaging techniques, such as contrast-enhanced computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, are essential for identifying this vascular anomaly and its anatomical course. Timely surgical intervention is critical as it can prevent severe complications and ultimately improve outcomes.
