Abstract
A cervical aortic arch is a very rare congenital malformation of aortic arch. A case is reported of a 42-year-old woman with an extensive circular aneurysm of a left-sided cervical aortic arch. The arch aneurysm was successfully removed surgically and replaced with woven Dacron graft. Histologic examination of the aneurysm revealed atherosclerosis and intimal defect.
