description Double aortic arch with circumflex aorta is a rare type of vascular ring. Symptoms result from external compression of the trachea and esophagus. The best surgical approach for patients with double arch and circumflex aorta is debated, and options include the highly complex aortic uncrossing procedure. Herein we describe the surgical treatment of a patient with concurrent double aortic arch and circumflex aorta by division of the non-dominant arch and ligamentum arteriosum, plication and posterior tacking of the diverticulum of Kommerell. This left thoracotomy approach provided complete symptom resolution.
