  • Ipsilateral Subclavian Steal in Association with Aberrant Origin of the Left Vertebral Artery from the Aortic Arch
    411 Ipsilateral Subclavian Steal in Association with Aberrant Origin of the Left Vertebral Artery from the Aortic Arch John Holder1 Five cases are reported of left subclavian steal syndrome associated with anomalous Eugene F. Binet2 origin of the left vertebral artery from the aortic arch. In all five instances blood flow at Bernard Thompson3 the origin of the left vertebral artery was in an antegrade direction contrary to that usually reported in this condition. The distal subclavian artery was supplied via an extensive collateral network of vessels connecting the vertebral artery to the thyro­ cervical trunk. If a significant stenosis or occlusion is present within the left subc lavi an artery proximal to the origin of the left vertebral artery, the direction of the bl ood fl ow within the vertebral artery will reverse toward the parent vessel (retrograde flow). This phenomenon occurs when a negative pressure gradient of 20-40 torr exists between the vertebral-basilar artery junction and th e vertebral-subc lavian artery junction [1-3]. We describe five cases of subclavian steal confirmed by angiography where a significant stenosis or occlusion of the left subclavian artery was demonstrated in association with anomalous origin of th e left vertebral artery directly from the aortic arch. In all five cases blood flow at the origin of the left vertebral artery was in an antegrade direction contrary to that more commonly reported in the subclavian steal syndrome. Materials and Methods The five patients were all 44- 58-year-old men. Three sought medical attention for symptoms specificall y related to th e left arm .

The origin of the left vertebral artery was from the aortic arch. On the right side, no thyrocervical trunk was found. The two branches which normally originate from the thyrocervical trunk had a different origin. The transverse cervical artery arose directly from the subclavian artery and suprascapular artery originated from the internal thoracic artery. This variation provides a short route for posterior scapular anastomoses. An awareness of this rare variation is important because this area is used for diagnostic and surgical procedures.

SUMMARY Four patients with spontaneous arteriovenous malformations of cervical vessels have been presented. The embryology of these vessels has been discussed in order to suggest an ex- planation for the apparent difference in the incidence of arteriovenous malformations involving the internal carotid artery and those involving either the vertebral or the external carotid arteries.

  • Ascending and Descending Thoracic Vertebral Arteries
    CLINICAL REPORT EXTRACRANIAL VASCULAR Ascending and Descending Thoracic Vertebral Arteries X P. Gailloud, X L. Gregg, X M.S. Pearl, and X D. San Millan ABSTRACT SUMMARY: Thoracic vertebral arteries are anastomotic chains similar to cervical vertebral arteries but found at the thoracic level. Descending thoracic vertebral arteries originate from the pretransverse segment of the cervical vertebral artery and curve caudally to pass into the last transverse foramen or the first costotransverse space. Ascending thoracic vertebral arteries originate from the aorta, pass through at least 1 costotransverse space, and continue cranially as the cervical vertebral artery. This report describes the angiographic anatomy and clinical significance of 9 cases of descending and 2 cases of ascending thoracic vertebral arteries. Being located within the upper costotransverse spaces, ascending and descending thoracic vertebral arteries can have important implications during spine inter- ventional or surgical procedures. Because they frequently provide radiculomedullary or bronchial branches, they can also be involved in spinal cord ischemia, supply vascular malformations, or be an elusive source of hemoptysis.

FOX During routine dissection of the subclavian artery and its branches, the suprascapular artery was found arising from H. Wayne LAMBERT the proximal end of the internal thoracic artery in only the left side of a 68-year-old Caucasian male, despite the presence of the thyrocervical trunk on the ipsilateral side. The suprascapular artery ran deep to the proximal one- third of the clavicle then continued its usual course, running parallel to the suprascapular nerve and passing over the superior transverse scapular ligament distally. Knowledge of this variant origin of the suprascapular artery is clinically Department of Neurobiology and Anatomy, West Virginia University School of Medicine, important because the internal thoracic artery is utilized for a majority of the 800,000 coronary artery bypass surgeries Robert C.

  • An Unusual Origin and Course of the Thyroidea Ima Artery, with Absence of Inferior Thyroid Artery Bilaterally
    Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy (2019) 41:235–237 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00276-018-2122-1 ANATOMIC VARIATIONS An unusual origin and course of the thyroidea ima artery, with absence of inferior thyroid artery bilaterally Doris George Yohannan1 · Rajeev Rajan1 · Akhil Bhuvanendran Chandran1 · Renuka Krishnapillai1 Received: 31 May 2018 / Accepted: 21 October 2018 / Published online: 25 October 2018 © Springer-Verlag France SAS, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract We report an unusual origin and course of the thyroidea ima artery in a male cadaver. The ima artery originated from the right subclavian artery very close to origin of the right vertebral artery. The artery coursed anteriorly between the common carotid artery medially and internal jugular vein laterally. It then coursed obliquely, from below upwards, from lateral to medial superficial to common carotid artery, to reach the inferior pole of the right lobe of thyroid and branched repeatedly to supply the anteroinferior and posteroinferior aspects of both the thyroid lobes and isthmus. The superior thyroid arteries were normal. Both the inferior thyroid arteries were absent. The unusual feature of this thyroidea ima artery is its origin from the subclavian artery close to vertebral artery origin, the location being remarkably far-off from the usual near midline position, and the oblique and relatively superficial course. This report is a caveat to neck surgeons to consider such a superficially running vessel to be a thyroidea ima artery. Keywords Thyroid vascular anatomy · Thyroidea ima artery · Artery of Neubauer · Blood supply of thyroid · Variations Introduction (1.1%), transverse scapular (1.1%), or pericardiophrenic or thyrocervical trunk [8, 10].

However, significant pattern variations exist. Characterizing SCA branches and its relationships to landmark structures like the anterior scalene muscle (ASM) is important in surgery. Computed Tomography Angiograms from 55 patients were retrospectively analyzed using Aquarius iNtuition. Measurements were taken of: distance of origin of SCA branches from the aorta and the ASM-VA origin distance. Only 13 SCAs (12.9%) exhibited the highest prevalence in typical branching pattern. VA originated 1st in 80.2% of SCAs, with ITA arising 2nd (41.3%), TCT 3rd (47.3%), CCT 4th (43.6%) and DSA 5th branch (56.9%). Average VA-ASM distance was 14.14mm with 94.9% of VAs originating within 30mm proximal to the medial border of ASM.
