Hypoplastic left heart syndrome with right aortic arch, bilateral arterial ducts and origin of the left subclavian artery from the left pulmonary artery
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 August 2008
Abstract
The rare association, in a left-sided heart with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, of right aortic arch, bilateral patent arterial ducts and origin of the left subclavian artery from the left pulmonary artery are described. Cardiac catheterization was performed because of the abnormal anatomy of the arch noted at echocardiographic examination. This abnormality is of surgical importance when planning the Norwood operation.
