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.<br /> (Copyright © 2014 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)
