Double arc aortique: à propos de deux cas

Abstract: Le double arc aortique représente une anomalie rare de l’arc aortique. Il provient de l’absence d’involution de l’aorte dorsale caudale. La symptomatologie clinique est habituellement précoce, notée dès la période néonatale ou peu après, dominée par des signes respiratoires et digestives. Le TOGD permet un diagnostic précis de l’anomalie. Cependant, l’angiographie est d’un grand intérêt diagnostique ainsi que dans le choix de l’approche thérapeutique. Seul le traitement chirurgical permet de lever les signes c… Show more

“…Usually, both aortic arches are patent, in which case the right or left may be dominant, or they may be of equal size. In the literature, the right side is dominant in 75% of cases, as was the case in our patient [ 1 ]. The double aortic arch is one of the embryological variations of the aortic arches which are most often unrecognized and/or asymptomatic, but which can be complicated by tracheoesophageal symptoms due to extrinsic compression [ 2 ].…”

“…It consists of a ligation-section of one arch with release of the esophagus and trachea via thoracotomy, or selective embolization via endoscopy [ 9 , 10 ]. Nevertheless, the indication for surgery need not be systematic, but it is definite if esotracheal compression syndrome is severe [ 1 ]. In the case reported, given the regression of symptoms after extraction of the coin and the favorable evolution over the weeks, we indicated a fractioning of meals and monitoring.…”
