Abstract :
Bovine aortic arch is the most frequently encountered variation in human aortic arch branching. A 63-year-old Asian male presented
with symptomatic severe stenosis of left carotid artery originating from the brachiocephalic trunk. Selective engagement to the left
carotid artery was unsuccessful using transfemoral approach. We reported on a successful left carotid artery stenting case using right
brachial artery approach in a bovine aortic arch. This paper is worthy of reporting in terms of guiding physicians for interventional
procedures in these types of challenging cases.
