Abstract

The double aortic arch represents a rare anomaly of the aortic arch. It results from the lack of involution of the dorsal caudal aorta. Clinical symptomatology is usually early, noted in the neonatal period or shortly thereafter, dominated by respiratory and digestive signs. TOGD allows an accurate diagnosis of the anomaly. However, angiography is of great diagnostic interest as well as in the choice of the therapeutic approach. Only surgical treatment can remove the compressive signs on the trachea-esophageal axis. The objective of our work is to illustrate through an observation of double aortic in an infant aged 7 months, the contribution of imaging in the difficult diagnosis of this anomaly.
