The thoracic cavity.
The aortic arch arches to the left as it emerges from the heart.
The Aortic Arch (Arcus Aorta) contains a high concentration of oxygenated hemoglobine, since it just came out of the left chamber of the heart which is still fresh from the pulmonairy circuit
aorta
Mural calcification of the aortic arch refers to the deposition of calcium in the wall of the aorta, specifically in the arch region. This condition is often associated with aging and can be indicative of underlying vascular disease or atherosclerosis. It may lead to stiffening of the aortic wall and increased risk for cardiovascular events. Detection typically occurs through imaging studies such as echocardiography or CT scans.
Yes, sympathetic nerve fibers penetrate the aortic arch along with the branches of the vagus nerve. These fibers help regulate heart rate and blood pressure by influencing the contractions of the heart and the diameter of blood vessels.
It is an aortic arch with an aneurysm.
Is a right sided aortic arch normal?
It is an aortic arch with an aneurysm.
The aortic arch is closer to the base of the heart.
The aortic arch arches to the left as it emerges from the heart.
The right common carotid artery does not receive blood directly from the aortic arch. It branches off the brachiocephalic trunk, which comes directly from the aortic arch.

Why would you want to do that. You would have to cut open the heart and watch the blood move from the pulmonary artery through the heart and into the right radial artery.
