“…The ductus remains patent on the left side and connects the aorta distal to the left subclavian artery origin to the proximal left pulmonary artery. The descending aorta is usually on the same side as is the aortic arch, and it is due to the persistence of ipsilateral dorsal aorta (23). The exact mechanism of the predominant sidedness of the arch is still unknown.…”

Congenital anomalies of the aortic arch include diverse subgroups of malformations that may be clinically silent or may present with severe respiratory or esophageal symptoms especially when associated with complete vascular rings. These anomalies may be isolated or may be associated with other congenital heart diseases. Volume rendered computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) help in preoperative surgical planning by providing information about the complex relationship of aortic arch and its branches to the trachea and esophagus. Three dimensional capabilities of both computed tomography angiography (CTA) and MRA are helpful in determining evidence of tracheal or esophageal compression or other high-risk features in patients with a complete vascular ring.

“…5 When the left circumflex aorta with a contralateral duct leads to a vascular ring, persistent right-sided dorsal aorta and right-sided distal sixth arch explains the anomaly. 1,2 Our clinical case demonstrates that the sidedness of the duct and the side of persistent dorsal aorta are unrelated to each other and occur independently. 2 The aortic coarctation in this anomaly was a result of marked hypoplasia of the left dorsal aorta between the fourth and sixth arch insertions.…”

“…1,2 Our clinical case demonstrates that the sidedness of the duct and the side of persistent dorsal aorta are unrelated to each other and occur independently. 2 The aortic coarctation in this anomaly was a result of marked hypoplasia of the left dorsal aorta between the fourth and sixth arch insertions. The ductal arch formed by the left sixth arch continued to maintain the descending aortic flows in the postnatal period and led to mild differential cyanosis.…”

“…In the presence of a right ductal ligament, it constitutes a vascular ring. 1,2 We report a patient with left arch with severe aortic coarctation beyond the left subclavian artery and right descending aorta with a left patent arterial duct causing left main bronchus compression. The left bronchus was "clamped" between the right pulmonary artery anteriorly and the descending aorta posteriorly.…”
