    Author: Alsaied T, Friedman K, Masci M, Hoganson DM, Baird CW, Geva T.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2019 Jan; 107(1):e41-e43. PubMed ID: 30009804.
    Abstract:
    Interrupted right aortic arch is a rare congenital cardiovascular anomaly typically associated with other forms of congenital heart disease. We report two cases of interrupted right aortic arch associated with isolated left pulmonary artery and bilateral ductus arteriosus in the first case and with truncus arteriosus in the second case. Computed tomography was complementary to echocardiography in delineating the anatomic details in both cases, informing surgical repair with reconstruction of a left aortic arch in the first case and right arch in the second case.
