ABSTRACT

A 1.5-year-old male German Shepherd dog was referred to a Teaching Veterinary Hospital with a chronic history of regurgitation and a previous presumptive diagnosis of megaesophagus. An esophagogram showed partial esophageal dilation, suggesting one vascular ring anomaly. Computed tomography identified a persistent right aortic arch (PRAA) and an aberrant left subclavian artery (ALSA). The patient underwent thoracotomy, ligamentum arteriosum ligation, and debridement of the periesophageal region. The ligation of the ALSA was not carried out because the esophagus was observed to be released entirely during the surgical intervention. Therefore, intervention on the subclavian artery was not necessary. Clinical follow-up occurred on seven, 14, and 30 postoperative days. The dog improved, showing only sporadic regurgitations. Clinical history and complementary exams were essential to establish a diagnosis. The liberation of the esophageal transit during surgery contributed to the decision not to perform the ALSA ligation.(AU)


Um cão pastor alemão, macho, de 1,5 anos de idade, foi atendido em um Hospital Veterinário Universitário com história crônica de regurgitação e diagnóstico presuntivo prévio de megaesôfago. Um esofagograma mostrou dilatação parcial do esôfago sugerindo uma anomalia de anel vascular. A tomografia computadorizada identificou persistência do arco aórtico direito (PAAD) e artéria subclávia esquerda aberrante (ALSA). O paciente foi submetido à toracotomia, ligadura do ligamento arterioso e desbridamento da região periesofágica. A ligadura da ALSA não foi realizada, pois, durante a intervenção cirúrgica, observou-se que o esôfago estava completamente liberado, não sendo necessária intervenção na artéria subclávia. O acompanhamento clínico ocorreu aos sete, 14 e 30 dias de pós-operatório. O cão evidenciou boa recuperação, apresentando apenas regurgitações esporádicas. A história clínica associada aos exames complementares foi essencial para o diagnóstico. A liberação do trânsito esofágico durante a cirurgia contribuiu para a decisão de não realizar a ligadura da ALSA.(AU)

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY: An aberrant right subclavian artery described by David Bayford, is rare and one of the aortic arch anomalies. It gives usually incidental findings. We present the case of a 57-year-old woman who was admitted to a neurology outpatient clinic due to a headache and no obvious pathology was detected during a physical examination. In consequence of the brain and chest CT angiography, incidental anomalies of the aortic arch branches were found and asymptomatic aberrant right subclavian artery and bicarotid trunk was diagnosed. The presence of this anomaly is becoming increasingly important in avoiding vascular injuries and cerebral complications in patients undergoing endovascular intervention on the aorta aortic arch surgery, thyroidectomy, or cervicothoracic surgery. So, detailed knowledge of variations of the subclavian artery and bicarotid trunk is paramount for radiologists and surgeons operating on the region of the anterior neck.


Una arteria subclavia derecha aberrante descrita por David Bayford, es rara y es una de las anomalías del arco aórtico. Además, suele ser hallazgos accidentales. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 57 años que ingresó a una consulta de neurología por dolor de cabeza, sin embargo, no se le detectó patología evidente al examen físico. En el angio-TC de cerebro y tórax, se encontraron anomalías incidentales de las ramas del arco aórtico y se diagnosticó arteria subclavia derecha aberrante asintomática y tronco bicarotídeo. Determinar la presencia de esta anomalía es cada vez más importante, para así evitar lesiones vasculares y complicaciones cerebrales en pacientes sometidos a intervención endovascular de la aorta, cirugía del arco aórtico, tiroidectomía o cirugía cervicotorácica. Por lo tanto, el conocimiento detallado de las variaciones de la arteria subclavia y el tronco bicarotídeo es primordial para los radiólogos y cirujanos que operan en la región anterior del cuello.

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY: Aberrant right subclavian artery (arteria lusoria) is a rare embryological abnormality but the most common among aortic arch vascular anomalies. It represents an anatomical variant of right subclavian artery originating as the last branch of aortic arch, passing then retroesophageal to the normal position. It is usually asymptomatic and is found mostly incidentally during imaging examinations. Symptoms are produced when the aberrant artery compresses the nearby structures and the most frequent symptoms are dysphagia and dyspnea. It may be associated with other vascular or heart abnormalities. We are presenting a series of case reports which presented an aberrant right subclavian artery alone or associated with other vascular abnormalities, diagnosed incidentally in adult patients while performing CT examinations for other reasons. Through a literature review we aim to discuss the clinical implications of this vascular anomaly, to point out the importance of being aware of it especially in patients with dysphagia or dyspnea or in patients who undergo operations in the thorax and neck or vascular surgery and endovascular procedures involving the aortic arch and its branches.


RESUMEN: La arteria subclavia derecha aberrante (Arteria lusoria) es una anomalía embriológica rara, pero la más común entre las anomalías vasculares del arco aórtico. Representa una variante anatómica de la arteria subclavia derecha que se origina como la última rama del arco aórtico, pasando luego retroesofágicamente a la posición normal. Por lo general, esta anomalía es asintomática y se encuentra principalmente de manera incidental durante los exámenes de imagen. Los síntomas se producen cuando la arteria aberrante comprime las estructuras cercanas y los síntomas más frecuentes son la disfagia y la disnea. Puede estar asociado con otras anomalías vasculares o cardíacas. Presentamos una serie de informes de casos en los que se presentó una arteria subclavia derecha aberrante única o asociada a otras anomalías vasculares, diagnosticada incidentalmente en pacientes adultos durante la realización de TC por otros motivos. A través de una revisión bibliográfica pretendemos discutir las implicaciones clínicas de esta anomalía vascular, señalar la importancia de conocerla especialmente en pacientes con disfagia o disnea o en pacientes sometidos a operaciones de tórax y cuello o cirugía vascular y procedimientos endovasculares. involucrando el arco aórtico y sus ramas.

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY: Variations in subclavian artery branches are relatively common and may impact surgical procedures and effects. During educational dissection of a male cadaver, we encountered an extremely rare variation of the right subclavian artery branches. The internal thoracic artery, the thyrocervical trunk, and the costocervical trunk arose from the third part of the right subclavian artery. In addition, the phrenic nerve displaced remarkably laterally by the thyrocervical trunk, and the course of the costocervical trunk was between the upper trunk and the middle trunk of the brachial plexus. These variations may pose a potential risk for nerve compression and increase the risk of arterial and nerve puncture. This case report would bring attention to the possibility of other similar cases, and early detection of these variations through diagnostic interventions is helpful to reduce postoperative complications.


RESUMEN: Las variaciones en las ramas de la arteria subclavia son relativamente comunes y pueden afectar los procedimientos y efectos quirúrgicos. Durante la disección educativa de un cadáver masculino, encontramos una variación extremadamente rara de las ramas de la arteria subclavia derecha. La arteria torácica interna, el tronco tirocervical y el tronco costocervical nacían de la tercera parte de la arteria subclavia derecha. Además, el nervio frénico se desplazaba lateralmente por el tronco tirocervical, y el trayecto del tronco costocervical se encontraba entre el tronco superior y el tronco medio del plexo braquial. Estas variaciones pueden suponer un riesgo potencial de compresión nerviosa y aumentar el riesgo de punción arterial y nerviosa. Este reporte de caso llamaría la atención sobre la posibilidad de otros casos similares, y la detección temprana de estas variaciones a través de diagnósticos es útil para reducir las complicaciones postoperatorias.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN: El músculo subclavio (MS) guarda estrecha relación con las estructuras neurovasculares (ENV) en el tercio medio de la región clavicular, situación de suma importancia para la realización de procedimientos invasivos de esta región. Pocos estudios han determinado la distancia desde el MS hacia la vena subclavia (VS), arteria subclavia (AS) y plexo braquial (PB). El propósito de este estudio fue valuar la expresión morfológica del MS y su relación con las ENV en una muestra de especímenes cadavéricos frescos. Estudio descriptivo en el que se realizó disección anatómica sobre la región clavicular de 30 especímenes de cadáveres humanos frescos no reclamados del Instituto Nacional de Medicina Legal y Ciencias Forenses, Colombia. Se realizó la caracterización cualitativa y cuantitativa del MS y se determinó la relación del MS con las ENV en la región clavicular. El MS presentó una longitud de 102,4±10,3 mm, con un espesor anteroposterior de 8,8±1,9 mm y superoinferior de 7,0±1,9 mm. El MS se caracterizó así: tipo I en 12 (40 %) especímenes, tipo II en 18 especímenes, tipo IIa: 10 especímenes. No encontramos tipos III y IV. La VS, AS y PB se relacionaron con el MS en el tercio medial y medio de su longitud a una distancia desde el margen superior del MSde 9,4±2,2 mm, 11,3±2,1 mm y 12,0±1,5 mm respectivamente. Los MS se relacionaron con las ENV de la región clavicular en una zona comprendida entre el 36,2±3,6 % y 89,4±4,8 % de su longitud total. Los hallazgos cualitativos y morfométricos de este estudio enriquecen los conceptos anatómicos subclaviculares y son de utilidad para el manejo quirúrgico de fracturas de clavícula.


SUMMARY: The subclavian muscle (MS) is closely related to the neurovascular structures (VNS) in the middle third of the clavicular region, and is critical when performing invasive procedures in this region. Few studies have determined the distance from the MS to the subclavian vein (VS), subclavian artery (AS) and brachial plexus (PB). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the morphological expression of MS and its relationship with VNS in a sample of fresh cadaveric specimens. The study involved the anatomical dissection in the clavicular region of 30 specimens of fresh unclaimed human cadavers from the National Institute of Forensic Medicine and Sciences, Colombia. The qualitative and quantitative characterization of the MS was carried out and the relationship of the MS with the VNS in the clavicular region was determined. The MS presented a length of 102.4 ± 10.3 mm, with an anteroposterior thickness of 8.8 ± 1.9 mm and a superoinferior thickness of 7.0 ± 1.9 mm. The DM was characterized as follows: type I in 12 (40 %) specimens, type II in 18 specimens, type IIa: 10 specimens. We did not find types III and IV. The SV, AS and PB were related to the MS in the medial and middle third of its length at a distance from the upper edge of the MS of 9.4 ± 2.2 mm, 11.3 ± 2.1 mm and 12.0 ± 1,5 mm respectively. The MS were related to the VNS of the clavicular region in an area between 36.2 ± 3.6 % and 89.4 ± 4.8 % of its total length. The qualitative and morphometric findings of this study enrich the subclavicular anatomical concepts and are useful for the surgical management of clavicle fractures.

Materiales y Método: Estudio descriptivo, observacional (revisión de serie de casos unicéntrica) de pacientes sometidos a la reparación endovascular de la arteria subclavia, debido a lesiones traumáticas, utilizando dos técnicas (stent balón expandible y oclusión endovascular con balón) durante un período de 12 años (2007-2019) en el Hospital Dr. Eduardo Pereira de Valparaíso, Chile. Resultados: Se realizaron 15 procedimientos consecutivos, electivos (86,67%), urgencias (13,33%), sexo masculino (66,67%), femenino (33,33%), edad promedio de 55,8 años (rango 26-69), abordaje utilizado: arteria femoral común (93,33%) y arteria braquial (6,67%), etiología de las lesiones: iatrogenia (66,67%) y trauma (33,33%), reparación mediante stent balón expandible (66,67%), oclusión endovascular con balón (33,33%), tasa de éxito técnico (100%), tasa de permeabilidad primaria a 1, 5, 10 años del 100%, 93,33% y 86,66% respectivamente, seguimiento medio (61,4 meses), estancia hospitalaria promedio (3,3 días), tiempo quirúrgico promedio (75 min), no hubo morbilidad cardiovascular, neurológica central o mortalidad relacionada al procedimiento. Discusión: La técnica endovascular elimina la necesidad de disección quirúrgica, disminuyendo el riesgo de lesión de estructuras adyacentes, especialmente en pacientes politraumatizados. Conclusión: En pacientes adecuadamente seleccionados, la técnica endovascular representa una excelente estrategia terapéutica de reparación de las lesiones subclavias.


Introduction: Conventional subclavian artery repair is challenging, with 24% morbidity and 5% to 25% mortality. Endovascular techniques allow subclavian repair from a distal artery, reducing the associated high morbidity and mortality. Aim: To evaluate the long-term results of endovascular treatment of traumatic lesions of the subclavian artery. Materials and Method: Descriptive, observational study (single-center case series review) of patients undergoing endovascular repair of the subclavian artery due to traumatic injuries, using two techniques (expandable balloon stent and endovascular balloon occlusion), during a period of 12 years (2007-2019), at the Dr. Eduardo Pereira Hospital in Valparaíso, Chile. Results: 15 consecutive procedures were performed, elective (86.67%), emergencies (13.33%), male sex (66.67%), female (33.33%), average age of 55.8 years (range 26-69), approach used: common femoral artery (93.33%) and brachial artery (6.67%), etiology of the lesions: iatrogenesis (66.67%) and trauma (33.33%), repair by expandable balloon stent (66.67%), balloon occlusion (33.33%), technical success rate (100%), primary patency rate at 1, 5, 10 years of 100%, 93.33% and 86.66% respectively, mean follow-up (61.4 months), average hospital stay (3.3 days), average surgical time (75 min), there was no cardiovascular, central neurological morbidity or mortality related to the procedure. Discussion: Endovascular techniques eliminate the need for surgical dissection, reducing the risk of injury to adjacent structures, especially in multiple trauma patients. Conclusion: In properly selected patients, the endovascular technique represents an excellent therapeutic strategy for the repair of subclavian artery lesions.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective The objective of the present study was to determine the frequency of malformations and chromosomal abnormalities in a population of fetuses with an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA). Methods This is a 6-year retrospective study of fetuses with a prenatal diagnosis of ARSA conducted during the period between September 2013 and June 2019 at a fetal medicine unit. Data were collected from ultrasound, fetal echocardiograms, genetic studies, and neonatal records. Results An ARSA was diagnosed in 22 fetuses. An ARSA was an isolated finding in 18 out of 22 cases (82%). Associated abnormal sonographic findings were found in 4 cases. All cases underwent invasive testing. In 1 of the cases, a chromosomal abnormality was detected (mos 45,X [13]/46,X,e(X) (p22.1q22.1)). No cases of congenital heart disease were found in any of these fetuses. There were two cases in which the postnatal evaluation revealed amalformation: one case of hypospadias and 1 case of cleft palate. Conclusion The presence of an isolated ARSA is benign and is not associated with chromosomal abnormalities. The finding of ARSA, however, warrants a detailed fetal ultrasound in order to exclude major fetal abnormalities and other soft markers.


Resumo Objetivo O objetivo do presente estudo foi determinar a frequência demalformaçães e anomalias cromossômicas em uma população de fetos com artéria subclávia direita aberrante (ARSA). Métodos Este é um estudo retrospectivo de 6 anos de fetos com diagnóstico prénatal de ARSA realizado durante o período de setembro de 2013 a junho de 2019 em uma unidade de medicina fetal. Os dados foram coletados de ultrassom, ecocardiograma fetal, estudos genéticos e registros neonatais. Resultados Um ARSA foi diagnosticado em 22 fetos. Um ARSA foi um achado isolado em 18 dos 22 casos (82%). Achados ultrassonográficos anormais associados foram encontrados em 4 casos. Todos os casos foram submetidos a testes invasivos. Em um dos casos, foi detectada uma anormalidade cromossômica (mos 45, X [13] / 46, X, e (X) (p22.1q22.1)). Nenhum caso de doença cardíaca congênita foi encontrado em qualquer um desses fetos. Houve dois casos em que a avaliação pós-natal revelou a malformação: um caso de hipospádia e 1 caso de fenda palatina. Conclusão A presença de ARSA isolado é benigna e não está associada a anormalidades cromossômicas. O achado de ARSA, no entanto, justifica uma ultrassonografia fetal detalhada para excluir anormalidades fetais importantes e outros marcadores leves.

ABSTRACT

Subclavian steal syndrome is a group of symptoms resulting fromretrograde flow in the vertebral artery, "stealing" blood from the posterior intracranial circulation and other territories, caused by stenosis or occlusion of the subclavian artery proximal to the origin of the same vertebral artery, or even of the brachiocephalic trunk. Most of the time, it is an incidental finding in patients with other conditions or cerebrovascular risk factors. We report a series of 29 patients with an angiographic diagnosis, in which 7 received treatment (all endovascular), all with symptoms directly related to this condition. Advanced age, systemic arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking and stroke were comorbidities frequently related. Six patients improved completely after the procedure and one remained with vertigo.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: El Síndrome del Desfiladero Torácico lo conforma una serie de síntomas y signos causados por la compresión de las estructuras neurovasculares en su salida por el desfiladero torácico a nivel supraclavicular.2 Dependiendo de la estructura afectada se habla de Síndrome del Desfiladero Torácico Neurológico, cuando la compresión es neurológica, SDTA cuando es arterial y SDTV cuando la compresión es venosa.3La presentación en la infancia es excepcional y la aparición con déficits motores se presenta en uno entre un millón de casos.1-6Los síntomas de dolor, debilidad y parestesias en la mano son orientativos y obligan a descartar esta entidad, así como signos clínicos de atrofia de musculatura son indicativos de la cronicidad.Los estudios preoperatorios como la electromiografía, RMN y angiografía asociada a RMN y pruebas dinámicas contribuyen al diagnóstico de esta entidad.7 La resección de la primera costilla y la escalenotomía es el procedimiento quirúrgico habitual en estos casos.8Presentamos el caso de una niña de 8 años que inicia sintomatología coincidiendo con la toma de biopsia a nivel supraclavicular en estudio de tumoración.


Introduction: The Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) conforms series of symptoms and signs caused by a compression of the neurovascular structures in the output thoracic pass at supraclavicluar level2. Depending on the affected structure, the syndrome can be Nerve Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (NTOS), Arterial Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (ATOS) or Venous Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (VTOS).3 The presentation in childhood is exceptional and the appearance with motor deficits occurs in one in a million cases.1The main clinical signs of TOS in adults include ip-silateral upper limb pain and discomfort, weakness, cold intolerance, and numbness of the hand. During physical examination, the muscles of the ipsilateral limb are relatively weak, and anesthesia, or pinprick sensation without pain is present on the inner sur- face of the hand and forearm. Thenar and hypothenar muscle atrophy may also be seen.In contrast, in children and teenagers, TOS usually presents as neck discomfort, upper limb numbness, weakness, and sensory loss.9We present the case of an 8-years-old girl started symptomatology coinciding with a biopsy taken for supraclavicular tumor at this level.

ABSTRACT

Resumo A forma arterial da síndrome do desfiladeiro torácico é rara e está associada a uma anomalia anatômica, geralmente uma costela cervical. Suas manifestações são muito variadas. Este artigo tem como proposta relatar dois casos de apresentações clínicas distintas: microembolização e aneurisma. Em ambos, uma costela cervical estava presente. O diagnóstico foi realizado através da história, do exame físico, das manobras posturais e das radiografias. A angiotomografia computadorizada proporcionou o detalhe anatômico necessário para o planejamento operatório. O tratamento cirúrgico foi realizado pela abordagem supraclavicular, com sucesso em ambos casos.


Abstract The arterial form of thoracic outlet syndrome is rare and is associated with anatomic anomalies, generally a cervical rib. It has a varied range of manifestations. The aim of this article is to describe two cases with different clinical presentations: microembolization and aneurysm. A cervical rib was present in both cases. Diagnosis was made on the basis of history, physical examination, postural maneuvers, and X-rays. Computed tomography angiography provided the anatomic detail necessary to plan surgery. Surgical treatment was performed via supraclavicular access, successfully, in both cases.

ABSTRACT

Resumo As fístulas arteriovenosas (FAVs) traumáticas envolvendo os vasos axilares e subclávios são incomuns e correspondem de 5 a 10% de todos os traumas arteriais. A anatomia complexa dessa região torna desafiador o tratamento desse segmento. Neste desafio terapêutico, descrevemos o caso de um homem de 73 anos, encaminhado por edema progressivo e úlcera no membro superior direito, com história pregressa de ferimento por arma de fogo na região infraclavicular direita há cerca de 50 anos. Foi realizada angiotomografia e identificou-se FAV axilo-axilar associada à tortuosidade e dilatação aneurismática de artéria subclávia a jusante. O paciente foi submetido à intervenção endovascular com endoprótese cônica (monoilíaca) 26 × 14 × 90 mm Braile® na artéria subclávia aneurismática, posterior à saída da artéria vertebral direita, e endoprótese monoilíaca 16 × 16 × 95 mm Excluder® com sobreposição na primeira prótese, apresentando resultado satisfatório. Portanto, descreve-se a possibilidade de utilização de endoprótese aórtica em situação incomum e de exceção, com sucesso.


Abstract Traumatic arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) involving the axillary and subclavian vessels are uncommon and account for 5 to 10% of all arterial traumas. The complex anatomy of this region makes treatment of this segment challenging. In this therapeutic challenge, we describe the case of a 73-year-old man, referred for progressive edema and ulceration involving the right upper limb and with a history of gunshot wound to the right infraclavicular region about 50 years previously. Angiotomography was performed and an axillary-axillary AVF was found, associated with tortuosity and aneurysmatic dilation of the subclavian artery downstream. He underwent endovascular intervention and a conical (monoiliac) 26 × 14 × 90 mm Braile® endoprosthesis was used in the aneurysmatic subclavian artery, posterior to the exit of the right vertebral artery and a 16 × 16 × 95mm Excluder® monoiliac endoprosthesis was placed overlapping the first prosthesis, showing a satisfactory result. Therefore, the possibility of successfully using aortic endoprostheses in an unusual and exceptional situation is described.

ABSTRACT

The brachiocephalic trunk and the left subclavian artery originate from the aortic arch, and both supply blood to the head, neck, and thoracic limbs. Anatomical variations, such as an aberrant right subclavian artery, are congenital conditions rarely observed in dogs, Thus, the objective of the present report was to describe a case of aberrant right subclavian artery in a 9-year-old Dalmatian. However, this anomaly was a finding in which the patient was asymptomatic during its 9 years of life and only at this age did he exhibit signs including sialorrhea, vomiting, hyporexia, and noisy deglutition. Blood count, biochemical profile, and thoracic radiography led to a diagnosis of megaesophagus and aspiration pneumonia. Despite the recommended treatment, the patient did not respond well; as such, the owner elected to euthanize the animal. On necropsy, the right subclavian artery originated directly from the aortic arch, followed a route from left to right dorsally to the esophagus, and then formed an impression of the vascular path over the muscular wall of the esophagus. The esophagus, in turn, exhibited a flaccid wall and dilation in the caudal portion to the vascular path made by the ectopic position of the right subclavian artery.(AU)


O tronco braquiocefálico e a artéria subclávia esquerda emergem do arco aórtico e são responsáveis por fazerem o suprimento sanguíneo para cabeça, pescoço e membros torácicos. Variações anatômicas, como a ectopia da artéria subclávia direita, são alterações congênitas raramente encontradas em cães, cujas alterações do sistema digestivo acontecem em pacientes recém-desmamados e não em adultos. Assim, o objetivo deste relato é descrever um caso de ectopia da artéria subclávia direita em uma cadela, Dálmata, de nove anos de idade. No entanto, essa anomalia foi um achado do qual o paciente foi assintomático durante os nove anos de vida e somente com essa idade apresentou sinais como sialorreia, vômito, hiporexia e deglutição ruidosa. O hemograma e os perfis bioquímicos, associados à radiografia torácica, levaram a um diagnóstico de megaesôfago e pneumonia aspirativa. Mesmo seguindo o tratamento recomendado, houve piora clínica do quadro e o animal foi submetido à eutanásia. À macroscopia, a artéria subclávia direita originava-se direto do arco aórtico, fazia um percurso da esquerda para a direita dorsalmente ao esôfago e, então, formava uma impressão do trajeto vascular sobre a parede muscular do esôfago. O esôfago, por sua vez, apresentava parede flácida e dilatação na porção caudal ao trajeto vascular feito pela posição ectópica da artéria subclávia direita.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Abstract Type II Aortopulmonary window (APW) accounts for only 10% of total cases of APW, which by itself is a rare congenital anomaly. Various cardiac malformations have been reported to be associated with this rare anomaly. We report one such association of origin of left subclavian artery (LSCA) from left pulmonary artery (LPA) via ductus arteriosus that was surgically repaired.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Os traumas penetrantes de vasos subclávios atingem mortalidade de até 60% em um cenário pré-hospitalar. A mortalidade no intraoperatório varia de 5-30%. Apresenta-se um caso de estratégia de controle de danos para um paciente com lesão na origem da artéria subclávia esquerda, através de ligadura, sem necessidade de outra intervenção, mantendo a viabilidade do membro superior esquerdo por meio de circulação colateral. Os autores fazem uma revisão sobre vias de acesso e estratégias de tratamento com ênfase em controle de danos para lesões de vasos subclávios.


Abstract Mortality from penetrating traumas involving the subclavian vessels can be as high as 60% in pre-hospital settings. Operating room mortality is in the range of 5-30%. This paper presents a case in which a strategy for damage control was employed for a patient with an injury to the origin of the left subclavian artery, using subclavian ligation, with no need for any other intervention, and maintaining viability of the left upper limb via collateral circulation. The authors also review surgical approaches and treatment strategies with a focus on damage control in subclavian vessel injuries.

ABSTRACT

Inferior laryngeal nerve palsy is a relatively common entity. Nevertheless, an occurrence as a result of a cardiovascular pathology is rare. In this case, it is called Ortner's syndrome (OS). Aortic diseases are responsible for more than half of cases. Supraaortic vessels disorders are rare causes of OS. In our new report, a non-smoker and non-drinker 70-year-old woman presented with a history of dysphonia since childhood. On direct laryngoscopy, a left vocal cord paralysis was detected and a contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed an aberrant right subclavian artery originating from the left portion of the aortic arch. Its course to its usual site runs behind the esophagus, being also called arteria lusoria. In this particular case, two unusual situations appear together, which contributes to the rarity of the event.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Los aneurismas del cayado aórtico representan un desafío, ya que el involucramiento de sus grandes ramas exige una técnica quirúrgica compleja. A partir de la aparición del tratamiento endovascular, una alternativa desarrollada en los últimos años para abordar el cayado aórtico consistió en el tratamiento híbrido de esta patología, mediante la derivación quirúrgica de los vasos del cuello y la posterior exclusión del aneurisma con una endoprótesis. Este método híbrido es conocido con el nombre de debranching, y en forma simplificada consiste en realizar, sin circulación extracorpórea, una serie de puentes entre la aorta ascendente y el tronco braquiocefálico, la arteria carótida izquierda y eventualmente la arteria subclavia izquierda, para permitir avanzar una endoprótesis que cubra toda la luz del aneurisma. Se describe la técnica quirúrgica del debranching híbrido tipo I, sin el auxilio de la circulación extracorpórea e implante anterógrado de la endoprótesis, para los aneurismas del cayado aórtico.


Aortic arch aneurysms represent a major challenge as the involvement of the supra-aortic vessels demands a complex surgical technique. Since the advent of endovascular aortic repair, hybrid treatment of aortic arch disease has emerged in recent years. The procedure consists of surgical bypass of the supra-aortic vessels followed by exclusion of the aneurysm with an endograft. This hybrid method is known as debranching and, briefly, consists in performing bypasses between the ascending aorta and the brachiocephalic artery, the left carotid artery and possibly the left subclavian artery without cardiopulmonary bypass, in order to advance an endograft to cover the entire lumen of the aneurysm. The aim of this paper is to describe the surgical technique of type I hybrid debranching without cardiopulmonary bypass and antegrade endograft delivery to treat aortic arch aneurysms.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Aortic arch anomalies are not clinically important unless they cause compression symptoms due to aneurysmatic dilatation. Aortic anomalies need to be treated when they cause complex thoracic aortic diseases, and the treatment approach has evolved over time from open surgical methods, which have high mortality and morbidity rates, to hybrid methods. A case of a 68-year-old male patient with complex aortic arch anomaly treated with hybrid arch repair is reported in this study. Aortic branches were common carotid trunk and aberrant right subclavian artery with a saccular aneurysm.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: la lesión de los vasos subclavios durante la cirugía de clavícula es una situación rara, de suceder podría resultar incluso mortal; conocer su ubicación es indispensable para minimizar ese riesgo.OBJETIVO: determinar la ubicación y la distancia de la AS y VS respecto a la clavícula. Secundariamente, identificar las características particulares que influencien la ubicación y la distancia. MATERIALES Y MÉTODO: estudio retrospectivo, AngioTAC de tórax y cuello entre 2012 y 2017; se midió la longitud de la clavícula, distancia y dirección de los vasos subclavios en cada tercio de la clavícula, como también la angulación entre una horizontal y el centro de los vasos subclavios. Resultados: 39 AngioTC, 78 hombros. Distancia AS/clavícula tercio proximal, medio y distal 32,8mm (20,3-46,3), 15,4mm (6,8-28,0) y 62,7mm (37,0-115,4) respectivamente. La distancia VS/clavícula tercio proximal, medio y distal fue: 7,4mm (1,0-19,2), 16,2mm (6,7-34,7) y 67,1mm (29,7-117,0) respectivamente. La ubicación de AS y VS con respecto a la clavícula es posterosuperior en el tercio proximal, posteroinferior en el tercio medio e inferior en el tercio distal. CONCLUSIÓN: En el tercio proximal la vena puede estar solo a 1mm de la clavícula y la arteria a 6mm en dirección antero-posterior, resultando esa zona la más peligrosa. En el tercio medio la distancia es mayor, pudiendo estar arteria y vena a solo 6mm, la dirección de brocado más peligrosa es antero-inferior con una inclinación promedio de 45° caudal. El tercio distal es el más seguro, los vasos están al menos a 30mm de distancia hacia caudal. Nivel de evidencia III.


BACKGROUND: injury to the subclavian vessels during clavicle surgery is a rare situation, if it happens it could even be fatal; knowing their location is essential to minimize that risk. OBJECTIVE: determine location and distance of the AS and VS with respect to the clavicle. Secondarily identify particular characteristics that influence location and distance. MATERIAL AND METHODS: retrospective study, AngioTAC of thorax and neck between 2012 and 2017; it was measured the length of the clavicle, distance and direction of the subclavian vessels in each third of the clavicle and angulation between a horizontal and the center of the subclavian vessels were measured. Results: 39 AngioTC, 78 shoulders. AS / clavicle third proximal, middle and distal distance 32.8mm (20.3-46.3), 15.4mm (6.8-28.0) and 62.7mm (37.0-115.4) respectively. Distance VS / clavicle third proximal, middle and distal was: 7.4mm (1.0-19.2), 16.2mm (6.7-34.7) and 67.1mm (29.7-117.0) respectively. The location of AS and VS with respect to the clavicle is posterosuperior in the proximal third, posteroinferior in the middle third and inferior in the distal third. CONCLUSION: In the proximal third the vein can be only 1mm from the clavicle and the artery to 6mm in the anterior-posterior direction, this zone is the most dangerous. In the middle third the distance is greater, artery and vein can be only to 6mm, the most dangerous drilling direction is antero-inferior with an average inclination of 45° caudal. The distal third is the safest, the vessels are at least 30mm away from the vessels. Level of evidence III.
