Abstract

In the report,4 patients associated with double aortic arch are presented. Two patients underwent surgery are 28-year-old woman and 1-year and 8-month-old girl. In the former, the left sided aortic arch is atretic with left ligamentum arteriosum (Edwards subgroup IB1), and the atretic aortic arch and the ligamentum arteriosum are divided. In the latter, the left sided aortic arch is also atretic (Edwards subgroup IB2), which is divided. Moreover, in this case, an associated cardiac malformation of partial anomalous left upper pulmonary venous drainage into innominate vein with pulmonary stenosis is demonstrated. Postoperative courses of both cases are uneventful. The other 2 patients without surgery are 64-year-old man (Edwards subgroup IA) and 50-year-old man (Edwards subgroup TB or III B). As far as we can ascertain from viewing the literature, the older patients over 50 years old are 18 inclusive of the presented 2 patients.
