Unusual Association of Arch Anomalies: Fifth Arch Remnant with Isolated Left Subclavian Artery

We report a rare case of a persistent fifth aortic arch (PFAA) associated with an isolated left subclavian artery (ILSA) in a patient with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). We report an 11-month-old female with TOF, in whom cardiac computed tomography revealed a double-lumen aortic arch and nonvisualized origin of the left subclavian artery, consistent with PFAA and ILSA. This case highlights the importance of advanced imaging in identifying complex congenital vascular anomalies.

Abstract

We report a rare case of a persistent fifth aortic arch (PFAA) associated with an isolated left subclavian artery (ILSA) in a patient with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). We report an 11-month-old female with TOF, in whom cardiac computed tomography revealed a double-lumen aortic arch and nonvisualized origin of the left subclavian artery, consistent with PFAA and ILSA. This case highlights the importance of advanced imaging in identifying complex congenital vascular anomalies.
