  • Title: Repair of interrupted aortic arch and aortopulmonary window in an infant.
    Author: Jacobson JG, Trusler GA, Izukawa T.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 1979 Sep; 28(3):290-4. PubMed ID: 485630.
    Abstract:
    The diagnosis and repair in infancy of interrupted aortic arch and aortopulmonary window is described. Using deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest, aortic continuity was established with a prosthetic graft, which was anastomosed to the aortic orifice of the aortopulmonary window. The pulmonary artery side of the aortopulmonary window was closed directly. Postoperative cardiac catheterization demonstrated a good reconstruction. Previous experience with this rare variety of interrupted aortic arch complex is reviewed.
