We describe the case of anatomical variation in the course of  left subclavian artery found in a dead male of 61 years, during dissection in the amphitheater of anatomy at the school of Medicine of Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia. It was found that the subclavian artery passed in front of  anterior scalene muscle and had no costocervical trunk.
