1 Successful Repair of Type A Aortic Dissection in an Octogenarian With Double Aortic Arch 
Sanford M. Zeigler, MD, William Hiesinger, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 107, Issue 1, Pages e19-e21 (January 2019) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2019 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 High-definition computed tomography demonstrates the double aortic arch with dominant right arch. Bilateral common carotid arteries (red arrows) originated proximally, with bilateral subclavian arteries (white arrows) arising posteriorly. The false lumen can be seen extending into the right-sided arch.

3 Fig 2 Intraoperative photograph demonstrates the bifurcation of the ascending aorta into left- and right-sided arches. The repaired dissection flap is visible in the anterior aspect of the right arch. The trachea (not seen) is coursing behind the bifurcation.

4 Fig 3 Intraoperative photograph demonstrates the completed repair, with Gelweave graft (Sulzer Vascutek, Renfrewshire, Scotland) extension into the proximal right-sided arch. Inflammatory adhesions are seen throughout the pericardial space.
