  • Title: [Interruption of the left aortic arch with right descending thoracic aorta disclosed in adulthood].
    Author: Camilleri L, Legault B, Boyer L, Bailly P, Lusson JR, de Riberolles C.
    Journal: Arch Mal Coeur Vaiss; 1994 May; 87(5):679-81. PubMed ID: 7857194.
    Abstract:
    Evaluation of hypertension, in a 30 years old man, revealed an interruption of a left aortic arch beyond the origin of the left subclavian artery, associated with a right descending thoracic artery. Surgical restoration of the continuity between the ascending aorta and the low descending aorta was successfully achieved by interposition of a graft. Survival in adulthood without bronchial compression, is explained by the absence of ventricular septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus.
