<p><b>Introduction:</b> Interrupted aortic arch is a rare congenital malformation characterized by a complete loss of luminal continuity between the ascending and descending aorta. 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>

Aortic Arch Anomalies

16 second trimester fetuses with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome have been examined at anatomic-pathological investigation. Main cardiovascular diseases were ascending aorta hypoplasia with aortic valve stenosis (n = 6; 37.5%), truncus arteriosus (n = 5; 31.25%), tetralogy of Fallot (n = 3; 18.75%) and double-outlet right ventricle (n = 1; 6.25%). Ventricular septal defect was present in 16 cases. Associated aortic arch anomalies included interrupted aortic arch (n = 9; 56.25%), right aortic arch (n = 6; 37.5%), retroesophageal ring (n = 1; 6.25%) and aberrant right subclavian arteria (n = 5; 31.25%). 5 fetuses had left ventricular outflow tract obstructive lesions with interrupted aortic arch of type B combined with aberrant right subclavian arteria.
