Aortic arc variations may cause some clinical symptoms like dysphagia and stridor or may be determined incidentally. These variations may cause commotions during radiologic examinations and surgical operations. Thus, anatomists, radiologists and surgeons should be aware of them. In this paper, we present a case of a right aortic arch with mirror image branching observed in a computed tomography image of a 50 year-old man. The triple anomaly of the right aortic arch consisted of a left brachiocephalic trunk, the absence of a brachiocephalic trunk on the right side and the separate origins of the arteries on the right side, with the right common carotid artery preceding the right subclavian artery.
