The aortic arch can be characterized into three types based on the vertical distance from the origin of the innominate artery to the top of the arch
Type A-. A type 1 arch has a distance that is less than one times the diameter of the left common carotid artery (CCA). A type 2 arch originates from one to two CCA diameters from the top of the arch, and a type 3 arch originates more than 2 CA diameters from the top of the arch
Type B and C -Left common carotid artery from innominate artery
Type D-True bovine arch
Type E-Arteria lusoria
