| The purpose of the present study was to investigate the presence of an elongated transverse aortic arch (ETA), which has been reported to be specific for Turner syndrome, in a population without Turner syndrome. A set of 1,012 patients (713 men, 299 women) under 40 years old, who underwent thoracic CT examination in our radiology department between July 2016 and December 2016, were included in the study. CT scans were performed by 16‐slice scanners. CT images were retrieved from the picture archiving and communication system and retrospectively re‐assessed by two radiologists. Diagnostic criteria for ETA, which are late take‐off of the left subclavian artery (LSA), convex kinking of the inferior aortic arch along the lesser curvature and flattening of the transverse aortic arch, were searched in each case. The mean age of the study population was 25.5 ± 10.0 years. Late take‐off of the LSA was … |
