Core Tip |
Dysphagia lusoria is a term used to describe dysphagia as a consequence of vascular compression of the oesophagus. Our case describes a rare anatomical variant of a right-sided aortic arch with aberrant left subclavian artery with late onset dysphagia. Manometric studies were abnormal with solid bolus, likely contributing to the worsening of the patient's symptoms over time. The patient is managing to maintain weight and nutrition through dietary modification and no operative intervention is currently planned.
