The subclavian artery carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the upper body. The left subclavian artery branches off from the aortic arch, while the right branches from the brachiocephalic trunk.
CSBG: Carotid subclavian bypass graft; PTA: Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. The treatment of subclavian artery occlusive disease has evolved from surgery to percutaneous-based treatment ...
Aberrant subclavian artery anomalies represent the most common congenital variant of the aortic arch, often manifesting as an unusual origin or course of the subclavian artery. Such anomalies may be ...
The New England Journal of Medicine: Surgical Management of Varying Patterns of Vertebral-Artery and Subclavian-Artery Insufficiency
The left and right internal thoracic artery (LITA and RITA, respectively), a branch of the subclavian artery, is often used for reconstruction of coronary arteries. Long-term results of this treatment ...
Carotid-subclavian bypass is a surgical procedure that restores blood flow to the upper extremities. The procedure involves bypassing a narrowed or blocked section of the subclavian artery, which ...

Pseudo–high-risk acute pulmonary embolism resulting from large paradoxical saddle embolus of the aorta with subclavian artery occlusion
There are a paucity of data in the literature regarding the natural history in patients with subclavian artery occlusive disease. The left subclavian artery is more frequently involved than the right, ...
CEREBROVASCULAR insufficiency due to subclavian-artery occlusion is more frequent, more simply diagnosed and more easily treated than generally recognized. Only recently has attention been focused on ...
