Right subclavian artery true aneurysm: A rare cause of dyspnea

Ihsan Alur, Bilgin Emrecan.




Abstract

Subclavian artery aneurysm (SAA) is a rare condition seen in less than 1% of peripheral artery aneurysms. It is usually asymptomatic. However, it may become symptomatic as a result of pressure on the surrounding organs due to the progressive growth of the aneurysm. The standard treatment for SAA is surgery. In this article, we wanted to present a 63-year-old male patient who presented with the complaint of shortness of breath and was operated on with the diagnosis of Right Subclavian artery true aneurysm on thoracic CT angiography.

Key words: Subclavian artery, aneurysm, dyspnea, tracheal compression, aneurysmectomy
