Abstract

Kommerell's Diverticulum is a rare aortic congenital anomaly, as the focal enlargement of the proximal part of the aberrant right subclavian artery at the level of its exit from the descending aorta. It is an embryological remnant of the posterior left fourth aortic arch. Kommerell`s diverticulum may cause symptoms of tracheal or esophageal compression, which they may arise at the moment of the birth, during the lactation or in the adulthood (dysphagia lusoria). Herein a 5-years-old patient who admitted to hospital with the complaint of dysphagia lusoria, diagnosed as vascular ring with Kommerell`s Diverticulum and operated successfully has been reported in the light of literature.

Özet

Kommerell Divertikülü, aberran sağ subklavyen arterin proksimal kısmının inen aorta da çıkış seviyesinde fokal genişlemesi olarak görülen, aortun nadir bir konjenital anomalisidir. Posterior sol dördüncü aortik arkın embriyolojik bir kalıntısıdır. Kommerell divertikülü doğum anında, emzirme döneminde veya yetişkinlik döneminde ortaya çıkabilen trakea veya özofagus kompresyonuna bağlı semptomlara neden olabilir. Burada disfajilusoria şikayeti ile hastaneye başvuran, Kommerell Divertikülü ile vasküler halka tanısı konulan ve başarılı bir şekilde ameliyat edilen 5 yaşında bir hasta literatür eşliğinde bildirilmiştir.
