  • Title: Descending aortic translocation for left aortic arch with right descending aorta and coarctation of the aorta.
    Author: Lee C, Lee WY, Shin JA, Lee JY.
    Journal: Cardiol Young; 2023 Dec; 33(12):2664-2666. PubMed ID: 37791533.
    Abstract:
    Left aortic arch with right descending aorta associated with coarctation of the aorta is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. Conventional aortic arch repair in this condition may cause airway compression by the abnormally coursing descending aorta. We present the case of a neonate with this anomaly who underwent successful descending aortic translocation to prevent postoperative left main bronchial stenosis.
