چکیده
Cervical aortic arch is rare with a prevalence of less than 1/10 000 live births (Pediatr Cardiol 10 (1989) 205); but may occur with other cardiovascular congenital abnormalities. We report pseudocoarctation of a left-sided cervical aortic arch with an aberrant right subclavian artery and aortic and mitral regurgitation, corrected by an anterior mediastinal shunt from ascending to descending aorta and aortic and mitral valve replacements, as a one-stage procedure. q 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

The length of the in situ right internal mammary artery (RIMA) often restricts its use as a graft to distal marginal arteries. We describe herein a retrocaval supra-azygous extra-pleural passage of the RIMA that allows a significant gain in length. We report our experience in 30 patients with distal marginal lesions or with large hearts. q 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
