Cervical aortic arch is a rare anomaly occasionally associated with other cardiovascular abnormalities. We present a case of tortuous left cervical aortic arch associated with hypoplastic transverse arch, coarctation of the aorta, and right brachiocephalic arteries arising below the coarctation and stenotic origin of the left subclavian artery. These multiple anatomic anomalies, which are associated in our case, have not been described in a single patient previously.
颈主动脉弓是一种罕见的异常情况,偶尔与其他心血管异常相关。我们报告一例迂曲的左颈主动脉弓病例,其合并有发育不全的横弓、主动脉缩窄,以及在主动脉缩窄下方起源的右头臂动脉和左锁骨下动脉狭窄性起始。我们病例中所关联的这些多种解剖学异常,此前尚未在单一患者中被描述过。
