ABSTRACT

Double aortic arch is the most common symptomatic type of the aortic arch variant. The double aortic arches form a complete symptomatic vascular ring that encircles the esophagus and trachea giving the symptoms of dyspnea and stridor (usually in the infancy and childhood) and dysphagia (more common in the adulthood). In this article we report a case of an one month old patients imaging findings presenting with progressive respiratory distress.
