    Summary

    A rare combination of right cervical aortic arch and ventricular septal defect was surgically corrected. This case marks the first successful survival after corrective surgery for this specific congenital heart defect.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Congenital Heart Disease
    • Medical Case Reports

    Background:

    • Right cervical aortic arch is a rare congenital anomaly of the aorta.
    • Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a common congenital heart defect.
    • The co-occurrence of both anomalies is exceptionally rare.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a case of a patient with a right cervical aortic arch and VSD.
    • To highlight the rarity of this combined condition.
    • To discuss the successful surgical management and outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Case report presentation.
    • Review of diagnostic imaging (X-ray findings).
    • Description of corrective surgical procedures.

    Main Results:

    • The patient presented with a rare combination of right cervical aortic arch and VSD.
    • This is the second reported case of this specific combination.
    • The patient survived corrective surgery, representing a novel outcome.

    Conclusions:

    • Corrective surgery for the combined anomaly is feasible and can lead to survival.
    • Radiographic findings can aid in diagnosing this rare condition.
    • Further research into managing such rare congenital heart defects is warranted.
