Abstract

Although rare, vascular sling-ring complexes together in the same patient may be encountered. Once clinical complaints compatible with vascular ring anomalies are described, it should be kept in mind that more than one anomaly may be associated. By this case, the diagnostic and therapeutic course of pulmonary sling and aberrant right subclavian artery in an infant with breathing and feeding difficulties was presented.
