Abstract
A 73-year-old man underwent computed tomography (CT) angiography assessment of the head and neck vasculature. An incidental note of the thyroidea ima artery arising from the aortic arch was made. Presence of thyroidea ima artery may have clinical importance prior to neck surgeries and minimally invasive interventions.
