Abstract:
Subaortic left brachiocephalic vein is a rare congenital anomaly that is sometimes found in the normal population. We report here on a case of subaortic left brachiocephalic vein that was detected incidentally by performing contrast transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) with using agitated saline and computed tomography (CT).
