Abstract

The presence of bilaterally persistent arterial ducts is an uncommon abnormality. Here, we describe the anatomy and successful management of an unusual patient with bilateral ducts in the setting of double inlet left ventricle, discordant ventriculoarterial connections, aortic atresia, and a severely hypoplastic and serpentine aortic arch.
