Left Nonrecurrent Laryngeal Nerve: A Very Unusual Finding during Thyroid Surgery
Background. Identifying the inferior laryngeal nerve is one of the main concerns in thyroid surgery. The typical recurrent position occurs due the relative position between the vagus nerve and the larynx during the last 3 branchial arches development. In

ABSTRACT The anatomical relationship of the inferior thyroid artery (ITA) and the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is highly variable. This study aims to evaluate bilateral RLN branching patterns and their relationship to the ITA within the same patient, predicting contralateral anatomical variations and ultimately reducing intraoperative risk of RLN ...

Background: Kommerell's diverticulum with Stanford type A aortic dissection is a relatively rare condition. There is currently no standard treatment strategy for Kommerell's diverticulum. We herein report our surgical strategy with a review of literature

Pathophysiologic Consequences of Early Coarctation Stenting in a Longitudinal Porcine Model
ABSTRACT Background Novel stent technologies offer early intravascular treatment options for coarctation (COA). Mid‐to‐long‐term cardiovascular responses to early COA stent interventions are undefined. Aims We studied a porcine model of COA, with and without early stent implantation with serial dilation to adult aortic diameters, aiming to define ...

Subclavian artery coverage is frequently required to achieve an adequate proximal seal during thoracic endovascular aortic repair. The thoracic branch endoprosthesis (TBE; W.L. Gore & Associates) is the first U.S.

Postprandial Changes in Thoracic Aortic Flow Detected by 4D Flow MRI May Influence Study Results
ABSTRACT Background While there is a growing body of data using 4D flow MRI to distinguish between normal and abnormal blood flow values in the thoracic aorta, the extent of physiological variation or lack thereof is potentially undervalued. Physiological processes such as postprandial changes to hemodynamics might influence data, normal values, follow‐

Aberrant left subclavian artery.
This paper describes a rare case in which the left subclavian artery originates from a common stem arising from the aortic arch and splits into a brachiocephalic trunk and a left subclavian artery. The course of other large vessels of the aortic arch in this case are typical.

A Fatal Case of Ruptured Aberrant Left Subclavian Artery into the Oesophagus
A right-sided aortic arch is a rare congenital abnormality and could be sometimes associated with an aberrant left subclavian artery which runs behind the oesophagus. It is usually incidentally diagnosed during adulthood unless it gives pressure effects on the adjacent structures. Here we present a case of 35-year-old mother with a period of amenorrhea

Feasibility of Imaging the Uvula at the Midtrimester Anomaly Ultrasound
Objectives The fetal palate is not routinely imaged as part of the midtrimester fetal anomaly ultrasound, despite being associated with many syndromes. The “equal sign” depicts the lateral borders of the uvula on 2‐dimensional fetal ultrasound. We assessed the feasibility of adding the equal sign to the midtrimester fetal anomaly ultrasound.
