Dysphagia Lusoria: A Rare Case of Dysphagia. [PDF]
Dysphagia is a condition whose prevalence increases with age and can have multiple causes. The differential diagnosis of dysphagia is crucial for its management and therapeutic guidance. The existence of an aberrant right subclavian artery can be a cause of dysphagia in adults.

Dysphagia lusoria: A vascular etiology? [PDF]
Dysphagia lusoria is difficulty swallowing as a result of extrinsic esophageal compression by an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA). Based on a thorough review of the literature and our case, we propose a complete foregut workup for possible other causes as potential etiologies of dysphagia prior to surgical treatment.

Arteria lusoria: A rare cause of chronic dysphagia
Arteria lusoria is a rare cause of dysphagia, in which dysphagia due to esophageal compression. The upper GI endoscopy does not bring significant element that can orient the diagnosis. The injected thoracic CT scan remains the key examination for the diagnosis of dysphagia lusoria and to characterize the defective artery.

Co-Occurrence of Rarest Type of Dysphagia Lusoria (Type N-1) and Eosinophilic Esophagitis in a Cognitively Disabled Individual. [PDF]
Dysphagia is an expressive symptom, described by an individual as “difficulty in swallowing.” Dysphagia due to esophageal compression from an aberrant right subclavian artery is rare, and it is termed as “dysphagia lusoria.” We present a rare case of co‐occurrence of dysphagia lusoria with esophageal eosinophilia in a patient with cognitive disability ...

An Aberrant Internal Carotid Artery Mimicking a Pharyngeal Mass: A Rare Cause of Dysphagia. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Aberrant course of the internal carotid artery (ICA) within the pharyngeal wall is an uncommon vascular anomaly that can present with symptoms mimicking structural or neoplastic lesions. Recognition of this variation is critical to avoid catastrophic complications during diagnostic or therapeutic interventions.

Pediatric vascular compression of the esophagus: Endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe as a complement to imaging and endoscopy. [PDF]
Abstract Objectives Vascular anomalies can cause extrinsic esophageal compression, leading to dysphagia or feeding difficulties in children. Diagnosis typically relies on imaging and endoscopy, which may under‐ or overestimate functional narrowing. Endoluminal functional lumen imaging probe (EndoFLIP) provides luminal parameters in real‐time, but its ...
