Abstract
Loss of continuity between subclavian artery and aorta with persistent connection to the homolateral pulmonary artery through a ductus arteriosus is an uncommon malformation, involving generally the left subclavian artery and associated with intracardiac or aortic arch anomalies. We report a case of right subclavian isolation with a left-sided aortic arch, presenting as a single anomaly and surgically corrected by aortic reimplantation.
