A new inclusion technique through an upper partial sternotomy for complicated Stanford B-type aortic dissection with an aberrant right subclavian artery

摘要

Rationale:An aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA), arising from the proximal descending aorta, is a common aortic arch anomaly, with an incidence of 0.5% to 2%. However, coexistence of dissection and an ARSA is extremely rare. We presented the first case of successful management of complicated Stanford B-type aortic dissection combined with an ARSA with a new inclusion technique and stent graft (SG) implantation through an upper partial sternotomy.
