Isolated left brachiocephalic artery with the right aortic arch: A rare differential of large patent ductus arteriosus.

ABSTRACT: We report a case of isolation of the left brachiocephalic artery with the right aortic arch in a 9-year-old male child masquerading as large patent ductus arteriosus with left-to-right shunt. We have emphasized the subtle clinical findings which served as clues to the diagnosis.

Left-sided patent ductus arteriosus in a right-sided aortic arch.

Project description:We present a 31-year-old female with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and right-sided aortic arch (RAA) with left-sided patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) originating from the left brachiocephalic artery. This is a rare finding but most common site for a PDA in TOF and a RAA. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of this rare finding on MRI in the literature.

Successful treatment of patent ductus arteriosus accompanying right-sided aortic arch and aberrant left subclavian artery: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundThe coexistence of a right-sided aortic arch (RAA), an aberrant left subclavian artery (ALSA), and a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a rarely seen vascular ring anomaly. There is currently no general guideline consensus on the management and follow-up of this congenital defect, posing a challenge to the clinicians. At this point, the heart team plays a critical role in the management of the disease.Case summaryIn the present case, a 25-year-old male patient was presented to the outpatient clinic with dyspnoea and fatigue. A transthoracic echocardiography revealed PDA with a left-to-right shunt. To evaluate the anatomy thoroughly, a thoracic computed tomographic angiography was performed and showed PDA accompanying ALSA and RAA. The patient was evaluated by the Heart Team, and a percutaneous closure of PDA was recommended due to signs of left ventricular volume overload. The closure was successfully performed with Amplatzer vascular plug II. At follow-up, the patient was free of symptoms.DiscussionClinicians should be aware of the potential concomitant lesions during the diagnostic work-up. In selected patients, percutaneous closure of PDA may be the first-line therapy in experienced centres.

Prenatal diagnosis of a rare aortic arch anomaly with left aortic arch and right ductus arteriosus: Cross ribbon sign.

Project description:Here, we report a fetus with a rare aortic arch anomaly with left aortic arch and right ductus arteriosus, which has not been reported so far. In this condition, the aorta extends to the left of the trachea as in normal, while the ductus arteriosus extends to the right of the trachea and joins the descending aorta posterior to the trachea, with a cross-ribbon sign.

Left pneumonectomy for complex aspergilloma after patent ductus arteriosus ligation.

Project description:Surgery for complex pulmonary aspergilloma is known to be technically challenging, often for indurated hilar structures and obliterated pleural space. We report a case of left pneumonectomy for pulmonary aspergilloma with a history of patent ductus arteriosus ligation via anterolateral thoracotomy and aortopexy via median sternotomy and pericardiotomy. Left pneumonectomy was successfully accomplished by devising a surgical approach and procedures for transection of the left main pulmonary artery.

Right Aortic Arch Associated with Left Internal Carotid Artery Agenesis.

Project description:We report the rare case of a right aortic arch associated with agenesis of the left internal carotid artery. A 75-year-old woman with a medical history of tetralogy of Fallot presented with dizziness. Magnetic resonance angiography revealed agenesis of the left internal carotid artery in addition to a previously diagnosed right aortic arch. The left common carotid artery was present, but it was thin. Computed tomography showed the absence of the left carotid canal. The left anterior cerebral artery was fed via the anterior communicating artery. The left middle cerebral artery was fed via a thickened posterior communicating artery originating from the left posterior cerebral artery. Although a right aortic arch and agenesis of the internal carotid artery are both very rare, association of the two conditions may occur. Both anomalies depend on the abnormal regression of the dorsal aorta during embryonic development. In such a situation, the presence of other anomalies in the cardiac or central nervous system should be taken into consideration.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Differential Gene Expression between the Closing Ductus Arteriosus and the Patent Ductus Arteriosus in Humans.

Project description:The ductus arteriosus (DA) immediately starts closing after birth. This dynamic process involves DA-specific properties, including highly differentiated smooth muscle, sparse elastic fibers, and intimal thickening (IT). Although several studies have demonstrated DA-specific gene expressions using animal tissues and human fetuses, the transcriptional profiles of the closing DA and the patent DA remain largely unknown. We performed transcriptome analysis using four human DA samples. The three closing DA samples exhibited typical DA morphology, but the patent DA exhibited aorta-like elastic lamellae and poorly formed IT. A cluster analysis revealed that samples were clearly divided into two major clusters, the closing DA and patent DA clusters, and showed distinct gene expression profiles in IT and the tunica media of the closing DA samples. Cardiac neural crest-related genes such as JAG1 were highly expressed in the tunica media and IT of the closing DA samples compared to the patent DA sample. Abundant protein expressions of jagged 1 and the differentiated smooth muscle marker calponin were observed in the closing DA samples but not in the patent DA sample. Second heart field-related genes such as ISL1 were enriched in the patent DA sample. These data indicate that the patent DA may have different cell lineages compared to the closing DA.
