Abstract (2. Language): 
Right aortic arch anomaly (RAAA) is a seldomly encountered condition. As it may present with other vascular abnormalities, it may also present alone. It usually becomes symptomatic at childhood, and symptoms like dyspnea and dsyphagia, if there is compression on trachea or esophagus, may be encountered. Sometimes it is coincidentally diagnosed with radiological methods in asymptomatic individuals who were admitted to the hospital for other reasons. RAAA was diagnosed with by chest x-ray and dynamic thorax computed tomography for asymptomatic a 47 year-old woman who was admitted to the hospital due to a traffic accident. This patient was presented as a case report since it is a rarely seen syndrome diagnosed coincidentally in patients who remained asymptomatic for several years.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Sağ aortik ark anomalisi (SAAA) nadir görülen bir durumdur. SAAA başka damarsal anomalilerle birlikte olabileceği gibi tek başına da olabilir. Genellikle çocuklukta semptomatik hale gelir, trakea veya özafagusa bası durumunda nefes darlığı, disfaji gibi şikayetlere yol açabilir. Bazen SAAA tanısı, semptom vermeksizin başka bir nedenle hastaneye başvuran kişilerde istenen radyolojik görüntüleme yöntemleri ile tesadüfen konulur. 47 yaşına kadar herhangi bir şikayeti olmayan bayan hastaya travma sonrası çekilen akciğer grafisi ve dinamik toraks tomografisindeki bulgulara dayanarak SAAA tanısı konuldu. SAAA az görüldüğü ve hastamız uzun yıllar semptom vermediği için olgu sunusu olarak sunulmuştur.
