The Clinical Spectrum of Kommerell’s Diverticulum in Adults with a Right-Sided Aortic Arch: A Case Series and Literature Overview [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
Background: Kommerell’s diverticulum is a rare vascular anomaly characterized as an outpouch at the onset of an aberrant subclavian artery. In the variant of a right-sided aortic arch, the trachea and esophagus are enclosed dorsally by the arch.

Right-sided Aortic Arch with Aberrant Left Subclavian Artery arising from Kommerell's Diverticulum: A case report [PDF]

Radiology Case Reports
Right-sided aortic arch, first documented by Fioratti and Aglietti in 1763, is a rare variant of the thoracic vascular anatomy present in about 0.1% of the adult population. In half of these cases the left subclavian artery is also aberrant. The aberrant

Hybrid repair of Kommerell's diverticulum with aberrant subclavian artery [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
Kommerell's diverticulum (KD) is a rare aortic arch anomaly associated with aberrant subclavian arteries and risk of rupture. We present an 80-year-old woman with a right-sided aortic arch and aberrant left subclavian artery arising from a 5.0-cm KD.
