Anesthetic management of pulmonary artery replacement for idiopathic dilatation of the pulmonary artery with a Kommerell’s diverticulum: a case report [PDF]
Background Idiopathic dilatation of the pulmonary artery (IDPA) is a rare condition in which the pulmonary artery dilates without an obvious cause. Pulmonary artery replacement is indicated in severe cases to prevent serious complications.

Right-sided aortic arch with Kommerell's diverticulum: a case report of a rare cause of type B dissection. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A right-sided aortic arch (RAArch) is present in approximately 0.1% of the population. A Kommerell’s diverticulum (KD), a remnant of the dorsal aortic arch usually refers to an aneurysmal aortic enlargement at the origin of an aberrant left ...

Kommerell's Diverticulum Resection With Left Brachiocephalic Artery Transfer in an Adult With Tracheoesophageal Compression: Off-Pump Sternotomy With External Skin Cooling. [PDF]
Congenital anomalies of the aortic arch often lead to tracheoesophageal compression during childhood. Occasionally, symptoms may not emerge until adulthood, appearing for the first time at any age due to age‐related or pathological dilation of the aortic segments. The oldest patient described with symptoms at the onset was 76 years old.
