IJERPH, Vol. 17, Pages 3581: An Unusual Dysphagia for Solids in a 17-Year-Old Girl Due To a Lusoria Artery: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Conclusions: Dysphagia lusoria is an impairment of swallowing due to compression from an aberrant right subclavian artery. The diagnosis is always difficult, as the symptoms are often nonspecific. It is imperative to accurately identify and properly manage dysphagia in pediatric age and this is only possible with an anamnestic, clinical and instrumental process that takes into account an adequate differential diagnosis.
