Abstract
Compression of the right pulmonary artery is unusual. We describe a patient with a double-outlet right ventricle, a ventricular septal defect, and pulmonary stenosis in whom the right pulmonary artery was compressed by a right-sided aortic arch. The condition was successfully managed during surgical correction.
