1 Delayed surgical management of a traumatic aortic arch injury
Yvonne M Carter, MD, Riyad Karmy-Jones, MD, Gabriel S Aldea, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 73, Issue 1, Pages (January 2002) DOI: /S (01)

2 Fig 1 A portable chest radiograph (A) demonstrates indeterminate mediastinum, with a hemothorax, contusion, and apical cap on the left. The small subdural hemorrhage within the right hygroma is documented by the head CT scan (B), with a maximal thickness of 7 mm. Also seen, are right and left frontal cerebral contusions and subdural hygromas. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (01) )

3 Fig 2 The arch angiogram reveals a large pseudoaneurysm originating from the ascending thoracic aorta, between the innominate and left common carotid arteries. Both great vessels have proximal calcific stenoses. There is no evidence of active extravasation. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (01) )
