RESUMO
An aberrant right subclavian artery is a rare aortic arch anomaly where the right subclavian artery arises from the proximal part of the descending thoracic aorta and distal to origin of left subclavian artery. It usually courses behind the esophagus. Type B aortic dissection along with aberrant right subclavian artery is not common. A middle-aged man presented with complaints of epigastric pain and on evaluation was found to have aberrant right subclavian artery with type B aortic dissection. A total arch replacement with frozen elephant trunk surgery and an extra-anatomic bypass of right subclavian artery were performed. Type B aortic dissection is more often an incidental finding and its association with aberrant right subclavian artery is unusual. Such association should be identified and treated accordingly to avert clinical complications.
