Abstract

Adult patients with interruption of the aorta are an extremely rare occurrence. It is commonly associated with additional cardiovascular anomalies. Surgery is the mainstay in the management of the patients. Interrupted aortic arch and associated cardiac disease is a complex situation that requires correction either simultaneously or in stages. We describe the case of a 32-year-old male patient planned for aortic valve replacement at another center, incidentally diagnosed with interrupted aortic arch Type A. He was managed with single-stage aortic valve replacement and extra-anatomical bypass.
