1 Traumatic rupture of the aortic isthmus in a patient with an aberrant right subclavian artery: Therapeutic implications  Marek Bednarkiewicz, MDa, John H. Robert, MDa, Gregory Khatchatourian, MDa, Gilles Genin, MDb, François Irmay, MDa, Bernard Faidutti, MDa  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 118, Issue 6, Pages (December 1999) DOI: /S (99) Copyright © 1999 Mosby, Inc.

2 Fig. 1 A, CT scan of the chest with ARSA (single arrow) in its posterior position and the left subclavian artery (double arrows). B, CT scan of the chest showing the isthmic rupture (arrow).

3 Fig. 2 Schematic diagram showing the isthmic tear and the origins of both subclavian arteries. Without cardiopulmonary bypass, placing the proximal clamp on the aorta as shown may lead to brain-stem ischemia, because both vertebral arteries are excluded.
