Right aortic arch, right patent ductus arteriosus, and mirror-image branching of the brachiocephalic vessels. 1978

R L van der Horst, and E A Fisher, and I W DuBrow, and A R Hastreiter

Two patients with a right aortic arch, right patent ductus arteriosus, and mirror-image branching of the brachiocephalic vessels are described. The clinical, angiographic, and surgical findings in these two cases are detailed, and a description of the embryologic basis for these anomalies is given.
