Innominate artery compression of the trachea: diagnosis and treatment by anterior suspension. A 25-year experience S C Adler 1, G Isaacson, R K Balsara Affiliations collapse Affiliation 1Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Temple University School of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. PMID: 7492062 DOI: 10.1177/000348949510401202 Abstract Suspension of the innominate artery to the sternum has been a widely accepted therapy for the relief of tracheal compression. Recently, reimplantation of the innominate artery has been advocated as a superior operative procedure. While generally successful, arterial transfer carries the risk of early bleeding and stroke, and the potential for late stenosis at the anastomotic site. Between 1969 and 1994, 25 infants and children at our institution received diagnoses of innominate artery compression and were treated by anterior suspension. All presented with stridor and one third had a history of suspected or proven apnea. Twenty-four children had excellent results, while 1 required resuspension after stridor returned. There were no major complications. Our series strongly supports the belief that anterior suspension of the innominate artery is a successful and reliable operation with minimal morbidity and mortality. More complex procedures are rarely indicated.
