The case of a 28-year-old woman with dysphagia secondary to oesophageal compression by an anomalous right subclavian artery is reported. A new single surgical approach, not previously described, for the treatment of dysphagia lusoria in the adults is presented. The aberrant vessel is dissected, divided close to its origin and implanted into the ipsilateral common carotid artery, all through a single median cervical incision.
