Description of a rare case of aberrant left vertebral artery branching off from the aortic arch with morphometric analysis of brachiocephalic arteries

Abstract
Individual variability or variant anatomy is most common in blood vessels, among which brachiocephalic arteries should be distinguished. The article presents a case of the detection of one of these variations – an aberrant left vertebral artery branching off from the aortic arch in a 68-year-old patient. This artery was identified in him after a CT scan of the aortic arch and brachiocephalic arteries for pronounced vertebral-basilar insufficiency. In studying the angiogram, the authors carried out a morphometric analysis of all arteries branching off from the aortic arch.
