[Surgical Repair of Kommerell's Diverticulum with Right Sided Aortic Arch;Report of a Case].

A 54-year-old woman was referred for assessment of dysphagia and extrinsic compression of the esophagus detected by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Computed tomography revealed the rightsided aortic arch with mirror image branching and Kommerell's diverticulum. To relieve the esophageal compression, surgical intervention was indicated. Descending aortic replacement with a Dacron graft was performed through right thoracotomy under partial cardiopulmonary bypass. The patient was discharged without any complication, and her dysphagia disappeared.
