Symptomatic double aortic arch causing tracheal and esophageal compression in the adult

IL Kron, G Mappin, SP Nolan, C Kellum and CJ Tegtmeyer

Greater awareness of the possibility of this condition as a cause of tracheal compression and dysphagia may lead to symptomatic relief for these patients.
