[Computed tomography diagnosis of anomalies of aortic arch of the adult (author's transl)].

Seven cases of anomalies of aortic arch investigated by computed tomography are described. The authors emphasized the interest of such an exam in the investigation of these anomalies. It is very interesting to know this pathology in sight to obviate some mistakes in the diagnostic of the tumors of the mediastinum. They describe three specific criterions of CT diagnosis of a right aberrant subclavian artery. The indications of computed tomography in the diagnostic and evaluation of the anomalies of aortic arch are discussed.
