Abstract A right-sided descending aorta with a left aortic arch is a rare congenital anomaly in which the aortic arch crosses the midline from the left side of the trachea coursing to the descending aorta in the right thoracic cavity. The surgical repair of an interrupted aortic arch with a right-sided descending aorta carries great risks of bronchial and oesophageal obstruction. Herein, we describe a case of successful surgical repair of an interrupted aortic arch with a right-sided descending aorta using the swing-back and trap-door techniques.

Kommerell Diverticulum

Kommerell diverticulum is a rare congenital anomaly of the aortic arch characterized by dilation at the proximal descending aorta, which gives rise to an aberrant subclavian artery. Kommerell diverticulum is usually asymptomatic, but can also be associated with symptoms due to compression of the esophagus or trachea, and can rarely be fatal due to dissection or rupture of the diverticulum. Here, we report a rare case of dysphagia caused by compression of the esophagus by Kommerell diverticulum originating from the right-sided aortic arch.

Aortic Arch Interruption

The case of a newborn with a post-ductal interrupted aortic arch combined with severe hypoplasia of the thoracic descending aorta and intracardiac defects is described. Extraanatomic bypass surgery was performed in the neonatal period to connect the ascending and descending parts of the aorta. Closure of a ventricular septal defect and excision of hypertrophied bands in the right ventricle with subsequent ventriculotomy were delayed beyond neonatal age.

Interrupted aortic arch (IAA) is a rare congenital anomaly with several anatomical variants and is often associated with other intracardiac and/or extracardiac congenital anomalies. Historically, associated with high early mortality, outcomes for this anomaly have improved in recent eras with advances in perioperative and anesthesia management and refinements in surgical technique. This review provides a description of surgical anatomy, anatomical classifications, and associated congenital lesions as well as an examination of the perioperative and surgical management of IAA in the contemporary surgical era.

It is often diagnosed during the neonatal period.</p><p><b>Case presentation:</b> We presented a 51-year-old male patient with interrupted aortic arch type B who was treated successfully with posterolateral thoracotomy without using cardiopulmonary bypass.</p><p><b>Conclusion:</b> The prognosis for interrupted aortic arch depends on the associated congenital anomalies, but the outcome is usually very poor unless there is surgical treatment. Survival into adulthood depends on the development of collateral circulation.</p>

Right Descending Aorta

The anatomic nature of a double aortic arch is described. Reference is made to the history of the malformation. The clinical picture and radiographic findings described by various authors are discussed. Two cases are reported which demonstrate two types of double aortic arch, One, a relatively common type, had a large right arch with a retro-esophageal component and a left descending aorta; the second, a rare type, had a large left arch with a retro-esophageal component and a right descending aorta. Further, one was an infant who had symptoms of constriction whereas the other was an adult who had no symptoms referable to the double aortic arch. Analysis is made of these cases and 47 other cases reported in the literature. This analysis reveals that: 1. There is a striking correlation between the occurrence of symptoms and the age and duration of life, but there is no correlation between the occurrence of symptoms and the type of double aortic. 2. A double aortic arch in which both components are patent throughout is more likely to produce symptoms than a double aortic arch in which one component is partially obliterated. The process of obliteration does not appear to give rise to symptoms. 3. There is considerable variation in the relative sizes of the components of a double aortic arch. The right component is usually the larger; part of the left component may be obliterated. To date, no case has been reported of obliteration of part of a persistent right Component. 4. A double aortic arch occurs more commonly with a left descending aorta than with a right descending aorta. 5. It is unusual for a double aortic arch to be associated with a malformation of the heart. The association of a double aortic arch with other vascular abnormalities is less rare. The two principal problems raised by the demonstration of a retro-esophageal vessel are discussed. The first concerns the nature of the malformation; the second concerns the advisability of operation in the given individual.

Abstract Neonatal aortic thrombus is a rare and critical condition that can present mimicking severe coarctation of the aorta or interrupted aortic arch. Transcatheter thrombectomy for this lesion has not been well described. We report a premature neonate with an occlusive proximal descending aorta thrombus, who underwent transcatheter mechanical thrombectomy using an Amplatzer Piccolo PDA occluder (Abbott, North Chicago, IL, USA). The procedure was successful with no subsequent distal thromboembolic events.
