Imaging findings
A follow-up presentation of a prior case, showing a right cervical aortic arch in a child. Early branching of the internal and external carotid arteries is seen from the arch in the lower neck.
Key takeaways
Cervical aortic arches, whether right or left, are characterized by an unusually high position of the aortic arch in the neck. They are often associated with anomalous carotid arterial branching patterns, such as separate origins of the internal and external carotid arteries directly from the arch, rather than from a common carotid.
