[en] We present a case of double aortic arch corrected by surgical interruption and full mobilization of the trachea and the esophagus. The vascular malformations of the supraaortic trunks, which form more or less complete vascular rings encircling the esophagus and the trachea, are reviewed. The different presentations of double aortic arch, aberrant subclavian arteries, and abnormal development of the pulmonary arteries are discussed.
