Core Tip
Core tip: Bilateral common carotid artery common trunk with aberrant right subclavian artery combined with right subclavian steal syndrome is rare. No other similar domestic or foreign cases have been described. We hypothesized that the occurrence of blood steal syndrome may not be accidental and results from multiple malformations. This case reminds surgeons and interventional radiologists to be aware of the possibility of these abnormalities in patients with aortic arch abnormalities before surgery.
