World J Pediatr Congenit Heart Surg. 2020 Jan;11(1):130-132. doi: 10.1177/2150135119885889.

Abstract

Coexistence of asymptomatic balanced double aortic arch with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is extremely rare and represents a surgical dilemma in decision-making due to the lack of consensus on the management of this subset of patients. We report a case of asymptomatic balanced double aortic arch coexistent with TOF in a two-year-old girl.
