An anomalous origin of the right vertebral artery (VA) from the right internal carotid artery (ICA) occurs only rarely.
A 70-year-old man underwent carotid artery stenting for right internal carotid artery stenosis. In this patient, the right VA arose from the right ICA associated with an aberrant right subclavian artery.
Embryologically, failure of involution of 1 of the first 6 intersegmental arteries causes various abnormal origins of the VA. The embryonic development of this anomaly is also reviewed.
右椎动脉(VA)异常起源于右颈内动脉(ICA)的情况极为罕见。
一位 70 岁男性因右侧颈内动脉狭窄而行颈动脉支架置入术。该患者右侧 VA 发自右侧 ICA,伴发右侧异常起源的锁骨下动脉。
胚胎学上,前 6 对节段动脉之一的退缩失败导致 VA 的各种异常起源。该异常的胚胎发育也得到了回顾。
