Bilateral Thyroid Ima Arteries Arising From the Brachiocephalic Trunk: A First Case Report
ABSTRACT Rationale Bilateral thyroid ima artery (TIA) arising from the brachiocephalic trunk is an extremely rare anatomical variation, with no prior cases reported. Recognizing such vascular anomalies is crucial for optimizing surgical outcomes in thyroid and mediastinal procedures, as failure to identify these variations can lead to severe ...
