Goldenhar syndrome with right circumflex aortic arch, severe coarctation and vascular ring in a twin pregnancy.

ABSTRACT: Goldenhar syndrome (GS) or oculo-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia (OAVD), involves a wide variety of organ systems. Cardiovascular anomalies are among the frequent malformations. The purpose of this report is to introduce a male case of a dizygotic twin pregnancy with GS and right circumflex aortic arch (RCAA), severe coarctation, hypoplastic aortic arch, aberrant right subclavian artery, vascular ring, bilateral renal artery stenosis, and mild Dandy-Walker syndrome. The embryology of RCAA and coarctation is revisited.

Pitfalls of stenting coarctation of an angulated right circumflex aortic arch in Goldenhar syndrome.

Project description:We report stenting of coarctation of an angulated right circumflex aortic arch (RCAA) using four Cheatham Platinum stents in a child with Goldenhar syndrome. Difficulties in measuring the accurate length of the curved and narrowed transverse aortic arch marked discrepancy between the luminal diameters of the long narrow transverse arch and wide descending thoracic aorta, increased displacement force caused by the 90° bend between the two parts resulted in repeated stent migrations. We discuss the tips to avoid distal stent migration in the setting of an angulated RCAA.

A case report: stent implantation to treat coarctation of persistent 5th aortic arch associated with interrupted 4th aortic arch.

Project description:Persistent 5th aortic arch is a rare cardiac anomaly that is usually surgically corrected during infancy or early childhood if it is associated with coarctation of the aorta. Here, we report an adult with coarctation of the 5th aortic arch who was successfully treated by stent implantation. An asymptomatic 32-year-old woman presented with hypertension and a significant arm-leg difference in pressure. On suspicion of coarctation of the aorta, a chest computed tomography was performed, leading to a diagnosis of an interrupted 4th aortic arch with coarctation of a persistent 5th aortic arch. Percutaneous catheter intervention using a PALMAZ large stent dilated to 12 mm resulted in a minimal peak-to-peak pressure gradient. The patient was discharged home after a 2-day monitoring without hypertension and arm-leg blood pressure difference. She remained normotensive with a patent aortic arch on echocardiography performed 10 months after treatment. As for simple coarctation of the aorta, stent implantation was feasible and effective in an adult patient with coarctation of the 5th aortic arch.

Surgical repair of persistent fifth aortic arch coarctation and interrupted fourth aortic arch without cardiopulmonary bypass: a case report.

Project description:Persistent fifth aortic arch (PFAA) is a rare congenital cardiovascular anomaly of the aortic arch, which can occur independently but is frequently associated with other cardiovascular malformations including patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), interrupted aortic arch (IAA), pulmonary atresia, tetralogy of Fallot, and transposition of the great vessels. PFAA can be classified into three different types according to different abnormal vascular connections (type A, B and C). We report an infant diagnosed with PFAA along with interrupted fourth aortic arch (type B) and PDA. Several surgical methods have been delivered to patients diagnosed with PFAA. In our case, the correction of coarctation PFAA and the ligation of PDA were performed without cardiopulmonary bypass through left lateral thoracotomy. We removed the coarctation part of the PFAA, and then performed the end-to-end anastomosis between the fifth aortic arch and the descending aorta. Despite the stenosis at the site of anastomosis was observed 10 months after the operation, the patient resulted in good recovery by once balloon dilation procedure. Thus, we recommend it is more appropriable to select this procedure in the surgical treatment of PFAA for those patients whose fourth aortic arches were interrupted with fifth aortic arches well developed. Our experience can provide a beneficial reference for future cases.

Double vascular ring: a case report of double aortic arch and concurrent pulmonary artery sling.

Project description:Double aortic arch (DAA) and pulmonary artery sling (PAS) are vascular ring formations that present in neonates and infants with symptoms of respiratory stenosis. The patient was a girl with suspected ventricular septal defect (VSD), right aortic arch (AA), left patent ductus arteriosus, and bilateral superior vena cava (SVC) on foetal echography in the first day of life. The girl was delivered at 40 weeks and 4 days of gestation. Ventricular septal defect, DAA, coarctation of the left AA, and bilateral SVC were diagnosed. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography at Day 16 revealed PAS with concurrent anomalous tracheal branching in addition to DAA. The right A2 segmental artery, which supplies the right upper pulmonary artery, showed abnormal branching from the left pulmonary artery (LPA). At 3 months of age, VSD patching, left AA resection distal to the root of the left subclavian artery, arterial ligament dissection, and LPA replacement were performed. Pulmonary artery sling coexists with anomalous branching of the trachea and abnormal branching of the right pulmonary artery (RPA). Our patient had an extremely rare case of DAA concurrent with PAS and presented with anomalous tracheal and RPA branching. We were concerned that increased pulmonary blood flow caused by the VSD would exacerbate tracheal displacement. Radical surgery at 3 months of age resulted in good postoperative progress.

Persistent fifth aortic arch associated with aortic coarctation: a case of surgical correction without artificial material.

Project description:BackgroundPersistent fifth aortic arch (PFAA) is a rare anomaly often associated with aortic coarctation or interruption, and various surgical techniques for this anomaly have been reported. Herein, we show a case of an infant with PFAA and severe aortic coarctation.Case presentationA 41-day-old female infant was admitted for sustained fever. Initially, the patient was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis, and echocardiography showed PFAA with severe aortic coarctation. Because the patient presented progressive oliguria and metabolic acidosis, she was transferred for emergency cardiac surgical intervention. The aortic arch was reconstructed using end-to-side anastomosis between the fifth aortic arch and the descending aorta without any artificial conduit or patching material.ConclusionsPFAA with aortic coarctation can be repaired by various surgical methods. Among them, our surgical approach is easy and effective, has growth potential, and an additional surgery is not needed.

Aortic arch and frozen elephant trunk repair of a right-sided aortic arch with pseudoaneurysm rupture.

Project description:A 53-year-old man with a history of vascular ring repair secondary to a right-sided aortic arch with a retroesophageal subclavian artery and ligamentum arteriosum to the descending thoracic aorta presented to our institution with a large aortic pseudoaneurysm of the distal aortic arch. Computed tomography demonstrated a right-sided aortic arch with a 5.8-cm pseudoaneurysm arising from the distal arch with concern for rupture. The patient underwent successful two-stage repair, including a left carotid artery to subclavian artery bypass, followed by total arch replacement with the frozen elephant trunk technique. He recovered well postoperatively, and computed tomography showed complete, successful repair of the pseudoaneurysm.
