Dysphagia Caused by Vascular Anomaly; A Case Report

Abstract

One of the rare causes of dysphagia is vascular malformation due to abnormal origin of right subclavian artery. This vascular abnormality, which is originated during embryonic development, is usually asymptomatic and is found incidentally. Herein we present a 36-year-old lady with the complaint of dysphagia who was diagnosed as having dysphagia lusoria caused by aberrant right subclavian artery. With reassurance and treatment of symptoms, her symptoms completely relieved without any further intervention.
