The diagnosis of vascular rings is challenging and may be delayed as symptoms overlap with more common conditions associated with childhood. Underlying genetic associations of this condition remain largely undiscovered. In this report, we present a patient with a double aortic arch and highlight the importance of diagnostic imaging. We also engage in a review of the important genetic considerations.
血管环的诊断具有挑战性,且可能会延迟,因为其症状与儿童期更常见的病症重叠。这种病症潜在的基因关联在很大程度上仍未被发现。在本报告中,我们介绍了一名患有双主动脉弓的患者,并强调了诊断性成像的重要性。我们还对重要的基因考量因素进行了综述。
