Double aortic arch often presents with tracheoesophageal compression. Management requires division of the vascular ring and, if tracheomalacia is present, some form of tracheopexy. We report here the use of a dental bar as an external splint for tracheopexy in a neonate. Follow-up to 18 months shows good tracheal growth and no erosion.
双主动脉弓常伴有气管食管受压。治疗需要切断血管环,如果存在气管软化,则需要某种形式的气管固定术。我们在此报告在一名新生儿中使用牙棒作为气管固定术的外部夹板。随访至18个月显示气管生长良好且无糜烂。
