Case Reports

Departments of Cardiology, Cardiothoracic Surgery, and Vascular Surgery, The Middlesex Hospital, London, England

Accepted for publication April 26, 1995.

We describe an unusual case of interrupted aortic arch, aneurysmal ascending aorta, and aortic regurgitation in a 24-year-old man. He presented with general malaise, weakness of his legs, and hypertension. A single-stage operation was performed in which the aortic root was replaced with concomitant extraanatomic bypass of the interrupted segment of the aortic arch. He made a full recovery and has returned to work.
