An 81-year-old man presented with shortness of breath and was referred to our hospital with suspected acute pulmonary embolism. Enhanced computed tomography revealed a right aberrant subclavian artery with a thrombosed Kommerell diverticulum (KD), as well as deep vein thrombosis in the left leg and bilateral pulmonary artery thrombosis. Thrombosis in the KD disappeared after one month of anticoagulation treatment with rivaroxaban. Thrombosis of a KD is a rare condition that may cause distal emboli and subclavian steal syndrome, although this syndrome was not present in this case. Rivaroxaban is an effective anticoagulant for treating thrombosis of a KD.
